Wood Burners
Before the proliferation of gas and electricity most homes were heated through real fires or stoves. The industry has seen a resurgence in recent years due to ever increasing fuel bills and environmental concerns.
Wood burners do exactly that, burn wood, however with advances in technology there are many other sustainable options to consider if you are worried about burning wood and its effect on CO2 emissions.
If you want to keep using wood, there are many suppliers who source sustainable wood and so this does not detrimentally affect your carbon footprint. You can also buy wood which is waste from saw mills or other forestry centres.
If you want to almost completely eradicate your carbon contributions then you can install a wood burner which is specifically designed for use with Biomass:
- wood pellets
- wood logs
- wood chips
Installing a wood burner is a good way of heating your home whilst reducing your carbon footprint and enjoying the age old tradition of a real fire.
Technology has allowed stoves to be much more energy efficient and can now be installed in smoke free areas, however it is important to check what levels of regulations there are in your area before going ahead with an installation. Speak to us or check the supplier and installer is trusted and reliable and can offer advice on what you should and should not invest in.
