Stove Project Overview

Hot Box Stoves was asked to supply and install a wood burning stove in a living room extension. Our customers wanted a modern-looking stove in a cylindrical shape to complement their home decor. Taking into account all the requirements as well as the size of the space, our project manager suggested Opus Melody woodburning stove.

The Opus Melody Stove is a sleek and modern wood-burning stove designed for efficient and eco-friendly heating. With a minimalist and elegant design, this stove is made of high-quality steel and features a large glass window for a stunning view of the fire.

The Opus Melody Stove is highly efficient, with 77.4% efficiency and a nominal heat output of 5kW.

It also features a unique air-wash system to keep the glass clean, and an adjustable air control for optimal combustion. Overall, the Opus Melody Stove is an excellent choice for those seeking an efficient, stylish, and environmentally conscious heating solution for their home.

INSTALLATION

As with every installation, the installation day began with placing temporary protection in all areas where work was to be carried out. To start with, the stove was placed on a D-shaped matt granite-style hearth. A black Schiedel Twin Wall Chimney System was installed to the top of the stove vertically through the ceiling and roof covering. Following that, a suitable lead flashing kit was installed together with a storm collar; the chimney system was completed with an anti-down draft cowl.

Once all debris was disposed of and the area where the stove was installed was cleaned, our HETAS registered engineers performed a smoke test using Firestarter. The smoke test ensures that there is an adequate degree of draw and that all connections are sealed. Finally, in accordance with building regulations, a CO/ Carbon Monoxide Alarm and a chimney notice plate were installed.

Our clients were pleased with the whole installation process as well as the stove choice. We were told that not only it produced enough heat for both parts of the house but also added character and style to their home. They are looking forward to using it in the fast-approaching winter months.
