Wood burning stoves

Wood burning stove installation across Yorkshire

We supply and install wood burning and multi-fuel stoves, carefully selected to suit your room and chimney, and fitted by a HETAS-registered installer to the highest standards. Every project begins with a home visit, where we assess your space, share samples and offer honest advice before any order is placed.

The stoves

18 models, supplied and fitted

ACR direct combustion air

Genuine ACR direct air kits

Many of the ACR cast iron stoves can be installed with a direct external air supply, drawing clean combustion air straight from outside the property rather than from the room. This preheated air helps the stove burn more cleanly and efficiently, improving performance, reducing emissions and making the appliance more economical to run.

A direct air supply, or a suitably sized permanent air vent, is required under current Building Regulations for homes and extensions built to modern airtight standards (after 2008), and for solid fuel appliances rated above 5kW. We advise on the right ventilation for your home as part of the installation.

What you get

A stove that suits your room, not just the brochure

A wood burner should be matched to the size of your room, how you use it, and the look you want to achieve. Too large, and you run it with the door open or turned down to slumber; too small, and it never quite heats the space.

During the home survey, we measure everything carefully and recommend an output that genuinely suits your room, then guide you through the stoves that match both performance and style.

Carl then carries out the installation, whether that is the hearth, recess or chamber, flue or liner, and the stove itself. Completed cleanly, tested thoroughly, and left tidy, exactly as it should be.

Common questions

Wood burning stoves, answered plainly

Do I need a chimney to have a wood burning stove?

If you have a sound chimney, we will line it. If you do not, we install a twin-wall flue system, either up through the roof or externally up the outside wall. We assess this during the home survey, so everything is confirmed in advance and there are no surprises later in the process.

Wood burning or multi-fuel stove, which is better?

A multi-fuel stove can burn both wood and approved smokeless fuels, which suits some homes and heating preferences. A dedicated wood burning stove, however, is often preferred for a cleaner, more efficient burn. We will talk you through the options and recommend what best suits you and how you plan to use the room.

How much does a stove cost to install?

Every installation is different, depending on the stove chosen, the flue or liner required, and the hearth or surround desired. After your home survey, we will provide a clear, detailed written quotation for the full installation, so everything is clear from the start with no hidden extras.

Is the installation certified?

Yes. Carl is HETAS-registered, so all work is signed off and notified to Building Control on your behalf, and you will receive your HETAS certificate for your records.
