Wood burner being fitted today
Over the last few years we have considered a modern efficient wood burner, we have an unused chimney right in the middle of the house, but could never justify it financially, we took the plunge and ordered this one a few months ago, https://www.stovax.com/stove-fire/st...udio-air-edge/
hopefully we will hardly use the gas central heating this winter and it will turn out to be a good idea.
We will still be heating water by gas.

We have two. One in the lounge (Morso) and this lovely corner Scan 80-1 which was fitted last year. It heats our kitchen and dinning area easily being 6w-9w.

Having been around wood stoves for years and as a kid they can be temperamental buggers. You can have all kinds of issues from something as simple as not getting the flue hot enough to not making sure the kindling is well established before throwing on the fuel. I found on the one we use in Cornwall when we visit that if you don’t give the fire time to establish and create a nice grey ash on the first couple of logs it can easily overwhelm it when you put more in
My wife normally crumples up a bit of paper throws on 2 sticks of kindling and expects to be warming her toes in 20 minutes… unless you’re really lucky that hardly happens. Knowing when to close the fire down is also key… too early generally sees it dying
