Once you have met the cost of installing a wood-burning stove, it’s down to the way you operate the stove to ensure it saves you as much money as possible. One of the best ways to ensure you use your stove efficiently is to burn seasoned wood. This is wood that has been cut, chopped and left to dry and air for a prolonged period of time. Ideally that means around 18 months sheltered by a car port-type structure. Giving firewood that length of time to season before burning it can result in the moisture content dropping from a much as 45% to as little as 20%. A warm home, faster That makes a big difference when it comes to how well your stove works. Think how much work your appliance has to do to evaporate all the moisture from a piece of wood that contains 45% water before it can even start to heat up your room. And that’s without considering the damaged caused to your stove, flue and the environment by burning wood with a high moisture content. Monitor moisture levels in your fuel The easiest way to ensure you are running your stove as cheaply as possible, and that you are not causing unnecessary damage to your stove, is to use a moisure meter. This handy little device tells you exactly how much moisture is in a log before you burn it. That means: You can check if wood you’ve left to dry is ready yet. You can verify whether wood you’re buying is as well seasoned as the salesman tells you. You know that you’re not releasing harmful gases into the environment. You can reduce the chance of creosote build-up in your flue or chimney. You can get your home up to a cosy temperature quicker.

If you’re thinking about installing a wood-burning stove in your home, one of the first things you need to decide is whether it’s really a woodburner you want or a multi-fuel stove. So, what’s the difference? The biggest difference between the two is indicated by their names. A wood-burning stove is only equipped to burn wood. Multi-fuel stoves can also burn wood, but you have the additional option of burning other solid fuels. Grate differences The most obvious difference between a woodburner and a multi-fuel stove that you’ll be able to spot is that a multi-fuel stove has a raised grate. This is because fuels such as coal burn better when they have an air supply from beneath. Wood, by contrast, does not need this sort of air supply to burn effectively. In a multi-fuel stove there is a grate to allow air to circulate below the fuel, whereas in a wood-burning stove the wood will usually sit on the bottom surface of the firebox because it burns best on a bed of ashes. Some solid fuels also burn at hotter temperatures than wood, which means that burning them on a dedicated wood-burning stove can cause damage to the metalwork. Where’s the ashpan? Multi-fuel stove have an ashpan that sits below the grate to gather the ashes. Since wood burns best on a bed of ashes, woodburners do not include ashpans. Instead, you’ll need a shovel or ash vac pot to collect the ashes. The benefits of a multi-fuel stove The flexibility to vary your fuel Easier to clean due to the ashpan Suitable for use in smoke control areas when approved smokeless fuels are burned. Our Multi-fuel best-seller The Portway Arundel XL Multifuel Stove, to find out more contact us 🔥 The benefits of a wood-burning stove Better for the environment because only sustainable fuel can be burned More efficient if you plan to burn mainly wood Usually slightly cheaper than the equivalent model of multi-fuel stove. Our Wood-burning best-seller The 5kw Ecosy+ Panoramic Wood Burning Stove is a great pick when it comes to dedicated wood-burning stove, to find out more contact us 🔥
