7. Do I need my chimney lining?
Re-lining your chimney is dependant on two major factors. Is your chimney already lined? If it is already lined, how old is the lining? We will not install a stove until we have surveyed your existing chimney to see if it meets the current regulations. All our surveys are free, once we have surveyed your chimney we will recommend what cause of action is required.

8. Which Stoves are best, Steel or Cast Iron?
When selecting a Stove the question regarding the material from which the stove has been made from is always quite high on the list. The differences are quite simple, A stove made from Steel heats up very quickly, the down side to this is that it cools down quickly also. A stove made from cast iron will take longer to heat up but will retain the heat for a longer period of time.
