Check out our Stove Video Reviews and More - Natural Heating / Norfolk

With hundreds of models on the market, it can be quite daunting when looking to purchase a new wood burning or multi fuel stove. That's why at Natural Heating, we always test each model before it makes it into our showroom. After all, if we wouldn't buy it why should you? One of our projects this year was to make this process easier, especially in warmer seasons where lighting a wood burner in our showroom isn't practical, is to have a video of each stove model lit with all the needed information. These are intended as honest with all the good and bad bits, and not your typical marketing videos made by manufacturers.  We always advise to touch and feel the stoves before purchasing - online photos may look great, but they may not be suitable for everyone. Everyone is welcome in our showroom, however if you're outside the area and travelling is not an option a review will be the next best thing.

BEWARE OF HIGH SAP CONTENT LOGS! - Natural Heating / Norfolk

No matter how experienced you are with wood burners, every day can be a school day! About a year ago, we have come across something very peculiar when our showroom display HWAM 4640C wood burning stove was burning out of control shortly after refueling. This was out of the ordinary, as we have always stocked up on kiln dried wood from a local supplier for many years without any issue and always check the moisture content of our logs.  We chalked it up as a one time strange occurance and didn't think any of it. Until... it happened a second time!  This time, we had the second part of the log and were able to figure out what was causing the issue...  As you can see in the photo above, the log had an abnormally high content of sap which would have been undetected had we not split it beforehand. On the outisde, it seemed unassuming however the weight of the log was a giveaway that something was not quite right. The woodman informed us that if a tree is cut late winter, he thi...

CHOOSE YOUR NEW STOVE CAREFULLY - DON'T TRUST PHOTOS! - Natural Heating / Norfolk

  We are a stove shop and stockists for a good number of leading brands. However, make aside.. I’m very passionate about what I do. People have all different tastes when it comes to aesthetic designs. However, I have burned all the different stove model ranges that we hold here in our shop. If it doesn’t make my grade in terms of what it offers for functionality, safety or price point.. I quite literally won’t sell it here in my shop. If I wouldn’t buy it, why should you ? It’s not all about a sale. You cannot make the wrong thing right. It’s important to visit your local stove shop and ask questions.. touch and feel the stoves.. work out what you NEED and how many boxes each of those stoves tick. Some stoves will suit some people and not others. I’m very particular about door handles for certain customers … Visitors are ALWAYS welcome here at Natural Heating. We have a large range of wood burning and multi fuel stoves here in stock and on display. Main brands include : ...

HWAM 4620C - DEFRA Approved, Eco Design 2022 Wood Burner/ Multifuel Stove - Natural Heating / Norfolk

  Hwam 4620c - 7kw wood burning stove (3 > 10kw approx range to the room) This is currently one of my top two all time favourite wood burning stove models. The simple, contemporary style of this range fits right in whether you have a more older traditional or newer modern home. One thing the Danish do EXCEPTIONALLY well is stove door handles and mechanisms. They're just a different class.... and you can tell the difference even with your eyes shut. You just KNOW it's Scandinavian built from the second you open the door. The door handle never gets hot and it's just a totally different feel. This stove is suitable for freestanding just 10cm forward of internal combustible walls without further need for heatshielding - but is equally suited to fitting in larger fireplace openings. Just because it's quite large does not mean you'll get overloaded with heat.  There is an output range of approx 3kw to 10kw which is variable according to both the burn /draw speed you se...

Ekol Edge - DEFRA Approved, Eco Design 2022 Wood Burner/ Multifuel Stove - Natural Heating / Norfolk

  Ekol Edge 5kw Wood Burning Stove This is one of the newer additions to our showroom! This particular one was recently fitted for a customer who wanted a stove across a corner, but was not overly keen on a rounded shape. One problem which often arises with square stoves is that the side clearances to combustibles mean the stove sticks out quite a bit.  Due to the  remarkably low clearance distance required to combustibles at both the back (50mm) and sides (100mm) we were able to tuck it back on a cut corner hearth (supplied by Natural Heating). There is currently no log store option for this model as it has just been released on the market, however for this job we used a log store for a different manufacturer which fit perfectly! You can view our review video on the Ekol Edge here . All these and more are in stock and on display at: www.naturalheating.co.uk Natural Heating Unit 5, Bunns Bank Ind est Attleborough Norfolk NR17 1QD 01953 452525
