What Are the Benefits of Wood Burning Stoves?

Human beings have been using fire to warm themselves and their homes for thousands of years, with the earliest hearth thought to date back to Malta in 3600BC.

​

Compared to its predecessors, the wood-burning stove is a relatively modern invention. But, as the saying goes, “Better late than never”. Stoves with wood-burning capabilities can provide a wide range of benefits. Whether you are looking to reduce your carbon footprint or add that “wow” factor to your home, this type of stove can certainly help you achieve your goals.

​

Excellent heat output

​

A notable feature of a wood-burning stove is its outstanding heat output. Compared to other heat sources, it can warm a room quickly and efficiently. Wood-burning stoves come in different sizes and heat output capacities so you should easily be able to find one that will fulfill your needs.

​

Energy efficiency

​

Another hallmark of the wood-burning stove is its energy efficiency. As a heat source, it has an energy efficiency rating of up to 80%, making it an excellent alternative to radiators. In comparison, an open fire has an energy efficiency rating of 20–25%. In addition, wood is significantly cheaper than electricity, gas, and oil. Therefore, a wood-burning stove can save you a significant amount of money.

​

Environmentally friendly

​

With the growing awareness of the importance of preserving our natural resources and protecting our environment, many homeowners are keen to minimize their carbon footprint by reducing their reliance on fossil fuels. As wood is carbon-neutral fuel, choosing a stove with wood-burning capabilities will certainly help you in this regard. It will also give you the option of sourcing wood fuel from unused timber and offcuts, which helps minimize the amount of waste that ends up on our landfill sites every day.

​

Aesthetic value

​

Wood-burning stoves are more than just a reliable source of heating for your home. They can also improve the interior design of your property and increase its aesthetic value as they greatly enhance the feel and look of any room. They will also add style and character to your home. And, with stove designs ranging from classic to modern, you will definitely be improving the overall aesthetic value regardless of your property’s architecture.

​

Simply reliable

​

Due to their reliability, stoves with wood-burning capabilities are an excellent investment. Indeed, because of the more dependable power supplies and the advances in technology, power outages are rare. However, this does not necessarily mean that power outages are a thing of the past, especially since the weather has become increasingly erratic and unpredictable.

​

Another advantage is that wood burners are a lifesaver if you find yourself without electricity in the middle of winter or during a spell of bad weather. As these stoves do not need gas or electricity, you can be sure that your home will remain warm and cozy long after the usual heat sources have stopped working. And, because wood-burning stoves are made from sturdy materials, you will be able to rely on them in the long term.
