Frequently asked questions

If you don't see your question listed, please contact us.

Can I install a stove myself, or do I need a professional?

While self-installation is legally permissible, it is a legal requirement to notify any solid fuel installation in England and Wales to the relevant Local Authority Building Control. We strongly recommend having the installation carried out by a HETAS Registered Installer to ensure safety and compliance with Building Regulations

Do I need to line my chimney for a new stove installation?

Installing a flue liner is often recommended to ensure the efficient exit of smoke and to prevent leaks into the house. A properly fitted liner can enhance the stove’s performance and ensure safety. 

What type of fuel should I use in my stove?

It’s essential to use the correct type of fuel for your stove. For wood-burning stoves, only burn dry, seasoned wood with a moisture content below 20%. Look for wood marked with the ‘Ready to Burn’ logo to ensure compliance with regulations.

How often should I have my chimney swept?

Regular maintenance is crucial for safety and efficiency. It’s recommended to have your chimney swept at least once a year, depending on usage. Regular sweeping prevents soot build-up and reduces the risk of chimney fires.

Are there any regulations I need to be aware of when installing a stove?

Yes, there are specific regulations to ensure safety and environmental compliance. Your stove must be installed by a registered HETAS engineer or fitted in line with Building Regulations (document J) before being signed off by Building Control. Additionally, in smoke control areas, only DEFRA-approved stoves can be used.
