Why it’s good to light your fire in the summer 🔥 There are two main reasons to light your wood-burning stove during the summer months. The first is that, given the British weather, it is very likely that you will need the warmth the stove generates nearly as much as you do in the winter. (Half)-joking aside, the other reason to light your stove even if it isn’t really needed during the warmer weather is to avoid your appliance succumbing to rust and corrosion. That increased risk of corrosion is caused by our friend the British weather and, in particular, summer showers. All through the year, rainwater gets into your stove system via your flue opening. The amount of water that gets in depends on the amount of rainfall, how exposed your chimney is and whether you have a chimney cowl fitted. But regardless of those factors, in winter – when your woodburner is in regular use – the heat generated by the stove evaporates any rainwater that finds its way into the flue and the stove itself. That’s not the case in summer when although, in theory, significantly less rain is falling, there is nothing to evaporate it. Allowed to sit until your woodburner is in regular use once again, this moisture can start to cause corrosion and rust to your appliance. How to stop rust in your woodburner The way to avoid this rust and corrosion is to occasionally light your woodburner throughout the summer. Even having a small fire for a short period of time will allow any moisture gathered in the stove system to evaporate, which will reduce the risk of the stove rusting. It is worth doing at regular intervals during the warmer weather and it is probably worth making extra effort to light your stove if you know there’s been a decent amount of rainfall over the past few days 🔥

Millions warned of black outs thus winter ! Power cuts are part and parcel of the energy network. With all the stormy weather that seems to be about these days, perhaps you are experiencing more than in previous years. High winds, heavy rainfall and snowy conditions can all cause problems for energy supplies. But now in top of weather issues, we have the added worry of lack of gas as the Russian conflict continues. Warnings have been made in the media of repercussions of the 70’s black outs, as prices rise to an all time high. Be prepared…..why not install a woodburner to guard against the effects of a power cut? In our modern world, a power cut is perhaps more inconvenient now than ever before. Many homes are reliant on electric & gas central heating and fires, and for households with very young or very old members, the problem is only magnified. Many of us are now controlling our heating via the smart home, either via our phones or devices in our property. Many of these are taken out of action when we lose our wifi connection, which we do during a power cut. Homeowners who already have a wood-burning stove in their property will know just how useful it can be when the power goes off. Let’s look at some of the main benefits of having a woodburner in your home during a power cut. Why a woodburner is useful in a power cut A wood-burning stove is low-tech. As a result, the opportunities for it to fail are significantly more limited than other appliances. As long as you’ve got fuel to hand, you will be able to light your woodburner during a power cut. A woodburner throws out plenty of heat, so adjacent rooms will feel some benefit from the fire. This would not be the case with alternative options. A woodburner gives you light as well as heat. You will need a lot of candles to generate a similar amount of light.
