Features

double sided multi fuel stove fuel stoves that have a back boiler can be used to burn an array of other materials than logs, which provides you with a wider selection of sources of heat, which can help you to cut costs and reduce your carbon footprint. Multi fuel stoves are designed to burn a larger variety of materials more efficiently than wood burning stoves.

The ash will be kept in an asphan below the combustion area, allowing for safe and easy removal.

Boiler stoves have an output of heat that ranges from to 21kw (14kw for water heating and 7kw for space heating) dependent on the model chosen and can be connected into hot accumulator tanks or a conventional boiler system, allowing them to operate together with solar panels when needed. The boiler is housed inside the stove, often on the back or side of the firebox. It is made from the thickly rolled steel, not the fragile cast iron.

This means that it's designed to withstand higher temperatures than cast iron stoves and is therefore less prone to corrosion. The boiler may be pre-fitted to the stove or as an add-on to the stove, and there are usually two (sometimes four) pipes that protrude from the rear of the stove to connect to plumbing pipes.

These pipes can be connected to an a hot water tank or directly into the radiator circuit of your home, with pumps turning on when the temperature in the tank is at a certain level. This will ensure that your radiators get heated prior to hot water being used for bathing and cooking. It also helps to keep bills down and protect against freezing in winter.
