    When it comes to setting up a stove, it's crucial to ensure all the components are in place for optimal performance and safety. Among these components, flue liners for wood burners and multi-fuel stoves stand out as vital elements, responsible for efficient and secure fuel combustion. But what exactly is a flue liner, and is it really needed?

    Understanding Flue Liners

    A flue liner, sometimes referred to as a chimney liner, is essentially a flexible tube that connects to your stove pipe, lining the interior of your chimney. Its primary function is to channel fumes safely upward through the liner, preventing their release directly into the chimney cavity.

  2. How to prevent your stove glass from turning black

    Wood Burning Stove

    Real fireplaces are now incredibly popular in the UK. Many of us enjoy the appeal and comfort of a woodburning stove or open fire, and for some people it has once again become an important part of home heating. But if you don’t know how to use your fire correctly, you could not only be wasting money, but damaging your appliance, your chimney and polluting the environment.

    Blackened glass is caused by a buildup of soot, creosote, and other combustion byproducts. If the fire doesn’t burn hot enough or wood used is not seasoned properly, it can produce more creosote which caused the glass to blacken. Check out our top tips to prevent your stove glass from turning black:

    1. Burn Dry Wood

    Generally, seasoned wood is seen as the most environmentally-friendly fuel and therefore the one that is the most widely-recommended. However, it’s important to use only dry wood, which should contain 20% moisture or less. Smoke

  3. Why do modern wood burning stoves have an important role to play in our low carbon future?

    A wood burning stove costs about a third of the price of electric heating and approximately 13% less than gas central heating for the average household under the current price cap. 

    A modern stove will use less than a third of the amount of wood fuel compared to an open fire to give the same amount of heat. 

    Wood fuel is renewable and sustainable, and can be locally sourced, helping to further reduce the carbon intensity of home heating. For example the number of logs required to produce 4kW of heat over a 5 hour period is 16 for an open fire, but only 5 are needed for an Ecodesign stove!

    Choosing a modern Ecodesign stove, such as a clearSkies certified model, is a highly efficient, cost effective, low carbon and low emission way to heat your home.
