If you are installing a wood burning stove, you will need to have a plate above the stove to block off the bottom of your chimney.

This plate must be made of a solid, non-combustible material. These are often referred to as a closure or register plates, but there is a difference between the two.

What’s the difference between register and closure plates?

A register plate is used to seal the base of a chimney cavity when you do not have a chimney flue liner in your chimney. Whereas, a closure plate is used when you do have a chimney flue liner in your chimney.

By burning the right fuel, you will reduce the negative impact your stove can have on your health and the environment!

It can be difficult to know which fuels to choose to reduce pollution. Wood sold in volumes under 2m³, and manufactured solid fuels, must be certified as 'Ready to Burn'.  If you buy fuel accompanied by the 'Ready to Burn' logo, you can be confident that you are protecting yourself and your family from the effects of the most polluting fuels.

You should always check which fuel types are recommended for your appliance. Using the wrong fuel could damage your appliance, affect your chimney, and invalidate your warranty.

We know that many people dry out, or season, their wood for use at a later stage.

At this time of year, there is usually an increase in reports of house and chimney fires. However, these fires can be easily prevented with responsible use and maintenance.

Smoky fuels release more creosote, a tarry substance that can stick to the inside of your chimney and ignite if allowed to build up. To prevent this, only use good quality dry firewood or even better, wood briquettes, which produce low amounts of smoke and therefore less creosote over time.

Regular maintenance, including annual chimney cleaning, is essential. It’s best to have your chimney cleaned by a professional who has all the right tools for the job. They can also inspect your chimney for any cracks, holes, birds nests or any other blockages, which could mean it's unsafe to light a fire.

Whilst summer is the ideal time to enjoy the great outdoors and with the recent high temperatures, thoughts of winter are likely to be far from your mind. However, being prepared for the colder months ahead is extremely important, especially for those with wood burning stoves.

The summer months are the ideal time to stock up on wood, make sure you are storing it correctly, book in an annual chimney sweep and service and undertake all the essential maintenance checks to make the most of your wood burning or multi fuel heating system. Keeping up with regular maintenance will aid the longevity and efficiency of your appliance.
