Getting a wood-burning stove can be worth it for cost-effective heating, eco-friendliness, and aesthetic appeal. They are efficient at heating spaces of any size and can reduce heating bills. Wood is a renewable resource, making it a sustainable solution. Log burners also offer a cosy, traditional aesthetic to your home.

The Mazona Ripley 5 kW is the most efficient wood-burning stove, with an 86.5% efficiency rating. It's Ecodesign-ready and DEFRA-approved. Other efficient models include the Mazona Rye 5 kW and Arada Hamlet Solution 4, both over 80% efficient. For higher efficiency, pellet stoves like the Artel Hydro 24 Thermo and Artel Futura 9 exceed 90%.

Log burners can effectively warm individual rooms and, with the right layout and ventilation, can contribute to heating the whole house. However, their efficiency in evenly distributing heat throughout a home varies based on the house's size, design, and insulation. They are best used as a supplementary heat source alongside central heating.

A wood-burning stove can be cheaper than central heating, especially if you have access to affordable or free wood. It's cost-effective for heating specific areas and can reduce reliance on central heating, which lowers overall heating costs. However, the cost efficiency depends on fuel availability, stove efficiency and the size of the area being heated.

Yes, you can use a log burner all day, but it requires regular maintenance such as refuelling and ash removal. Ensure yours is designed for continuous burning and follow safety guidelines. Continuous use increases wear, so regular inspections and maintenance are crucial for safe, efficient burning.
