  • We use the Charnwood C4 wood-burning stoves fitted by a HETAS certificated installer. Rated with an output of 4.9kW and 82% efficiency, the C4 meets the Clean Air Act requirements for smoke control exemption. Like any heat source from an open flame there is some risk, however, our stoves are sitting on stone bases and the backs are protected by a heat shield. We also provide our owners with a carbon monoxide monitor, just in case. This means there should be no greater risk than from a similar stove in the home. However, like all heating systems, if you don’t maintain and monitor them properly that risk may increase.
