Stove Project Overview
The client in this case wanted a woodburning stove to take the chill off the recent winter evenings. However, they were not keen on disrupting one of the properties original features, the fireplace.
As such, they requested our HETAS engineers make the best of what they had available by making adaptions to the existing fireplace.
There was a marble fire surround in place, dating from circa 1886 and a replacement hearth had been installed at some point. However, the original cast iron insert that housed the fire grate was still in place.
With some slight modifications we were able to remove some of the grate to allow for a rear mounted woodburner to be fitted. A 316 grade flexible flue liner was installed and connected before the stove could be positioned, tested and certified.
As usual, our teams protected the room with plastic sheeting so that they could focus on the task in hand, installing the wood stove.

The end result
The finished stove installation was sympathetic to the original fireplace which needed to be maintained.
However, our client ended up with a Defra approved woodburner expertly fitted around what was originally there.
As always, the stove chosen was fit for purpose in terms of size, heat output and style and did to look out of place.
Gone are the days of the inefficient open fire, why not change yours for a modern wood burner and take the chill out of January?
Testing was undertaken using our very own Hot Box ® Firestarter to make sure the appliance was sealed, airtight and the draw adequate.
Another successful Yorkshire Stove installation by the teams at Hot Box Stoves.
