MULTI-FUEL STOVES & FIREPLACES

Are you struggling to decide on the perfect stove or fireplace for your home? Don't worry, we're here to assist you.

We strongly believe that selecting a stove or fireplace should be an informed decision based on your specific needs and preferences. Our approach is not to pressure you into buying something you don't need or to push our old inventory.

We understand that unless you are a heating or gas expert, you may require some guidance and inspiration when it comes to buying your next stove or fireplace. That's where we step in to lend a helping hand.

When it comes to selecting a fireplace or stove, there are a few key things to keep in mind. First, consider the size of the room where you want the stove or fireplace to be placed. We'll need to know the relevant dimensions, whether it's the front or the back of the room.

Second, think about the flue or chimney: do you already have one that we can use, or will we need to make modifications?

Third, we'll need to assess the suitability of your hearth to determine the best placement for the stove.

Finally, it's important to make sure there's enough air supply in the room, especially if the building is old or has a high heat output. Additional room ventilation may be necessary in these cases.

Important

At Drayton Stoves, we want to remind our customers about the importance of chimney sweeping and safety when using any stove or fireplace. It's crucial to keep your purchases and surrounding areas clean and tidy, especially if you have young children who may not be aware of the potential dangers that come with a real log fire or the accessories we sell.

The majority of chimney fires occur because of the accumulation of materials in the flue. To prevent this, make sure your fireplaces are well-maintained and tidy. Keep all fireplace and stove accessories out of children's reach to avoid accidents.

We recommend sweeping your chimney at least twice a year, depending on the type of fuel you use. For smokeless fuels, once a year is sufficient, while for bituminous coal, twice a year is recommended. By following these guidelines, you can ensure the safety of your household and enjoy the warmth of your stove or fireplace without any worries.
