Installing the heart of your home

When designing a new house, it makes sense to consider the heating system as early as possible since the SAP calculations can impact significantly on the overall design and cost of the building. Specifying a wood burning stove as part of your heating plan can help you achieve a worthwhile reduction of emissions for the SAP calculations. In practice this offers useful carbon ‘credit’ which can be traded off against other design aspects of the house.

A stove is an extremely efficient space heater that can be run economically in the super-insulated modern houses of today. It also provides a valuable and comforting source of heat during a prolonged power cut in an otherwise electric reliant system.

And, of course, it goes without saying a stove is a great looking visual asset which gives a ‘heart’ to the home and provides the perfect focal point to gather family and friends around.
