install wood burning stove

Recommended Posts

I watched a programme about this recently.


Just be careful. A Wood Burning Stove in any smokeless zone will need to be DEFRA approved.


Some installers will be happy to install one that isn't and you will not be allowed to use it.


You could be fined at it will be expensive to replace it.

CASA in Bellenden Road can arrange this for you or do the the whole project.

we used the guy they use for installation but I cant find his number- it will be on an old thread related to this subject and would be under my recommendation.

edited to say I have found it

Installer was Dennis 07903425482.

We just had our fireplace done up and a wood burner installed. The installation and all the work was done by Dennis Mart and his team and Matt at CASA (Bellenden Road) supplied the stove and helped facilitate the process.


They didn't ask me to write this review but I feel I want to share my experience since it was really positive!


The whole process was super smooth. I got several quotes and in the end decided to go with the people who I felt most understood what I was after. (Turns out it was one of the cheaper quotes too!) Matt at CASA is an expert when it comes to old victorian stuff and he works with restoration of old victorian radiators etc. So I felt they understood how to create something both functional and beautiful. The whole team came across as both knowledgeable and professional and they arrived on time and worked very quickly. I am super stoked about our new beautiful wood burner, it looks gorgeous!


So I whole heartedly recommend both Dennis (and team) as an installer and Matt as a facilitator and advisor. It is also great because they can handle the ordering of the stove etc for you which greatly simplifies the logistics of things.


If you are thinking of using CASA, check out Matt's instagram feed - it's sort of a portfolio and he regularly posts pictures of jobs here. That really helped me understand what I wanted and what result to expect: http://instagram.com/fireplaces_stoves_radiators/

We also used Dennis and his team to line our chimney and install a stove. We bought a stove based on the advice Dennis gave to us and are so pleased with it. Dennis and his guys did a great job, working around a problem we encountered with my chimney and and they were really nice to deal with.

    • The alternative would be to let them free, to be predated on and without parents to teach them the necessities of survival. Clearly this is an unhelpful model of instruction, but, given the ducklings have been born and will not survive without parental care (unless they are hand reared in the school - which I doubt has the capacity of skill for this) then gassing them is the most 'humane' action. The school should perhaps have thought through what is the likely outcome for ducklings which are not being reared by either skilled farmers or ducks. I suspect that the duckings would not be saleable to farmers having been initially born and raised in circumstances which were not sterile for introduction into larger flocks. 
    • That's a good idea smiley blue , if you or anyone else comes across petitions to end these despicable acts of cruelty to defenceless animals please put on here or start a new thread if you please so we can sign the petition and add our objections to this , I would also like to thank all of you the people for reading these messages and adding your voices to this cruelty,  maybe we can end it 
    • Malumbu, by that measure are police efforts to cut down on anti-social driving by issuing tickets and fines a token effort as well? Surely punitive measures for cyclists breaking the rules will encourage them not to break the rules again? A bit like when you got stopped and taken into the cab of an HGV. The police are currently using that tactic to show those who break the rules cycling that it might lead them to being hit by a lorry due to the driver's having limited vision - the cycling equivalent of a speed awareness course for drivers.    When they stopped you was it because you had broken a rule or was it just more of an education programme and they asked you to take a look and did it change your cycling behaviour in any way? As I said previously there are those who break the rules on cycling out of ignorance (and those out of arrogance) and I am sure they are using HGVs to educate those in the ignorance category and then hitting those in the arrogance category with the PCNs.
