Many homeowners continue to think about the question: Are wood burners worth it? At HouseFuel, we’re passionate about providing quality firewood at the very best, competitive prices for your home heating experience. Let’s stoke the flame of this discussion and explore why wood burners might be the perfect addition to your home.

 

The Many Benefits of Wood Burners

 

Wood burners offer more than just heat; they provide an experience that touches on various aspects of home life.

A Lifestyle Choice: Create unforgettable evenings with friends around a crackling fire.


Cost-Effective Heating: OFGEM has announced that between 1 October and 31 December, 2024, the energy price cap is set at £1,717 per year for a typical household that uses electricity and gas. This is an increase of 10% compared to the cap set between 1 July and 30 September 2024 (£1,568). You can potentially reduce your overall heating expenses with a wood burner, along with HouseFuel Firewood.


Want to feel good about the energy you use? Renewable energy sources are the way to go, and firewood is an eco-friendly fuel compared to fossil alternatives.


Ambiance and Well-Being: Enjoy the therapeutic benefits of a flickering flame in the home.

 

Comparing Wood Burners to Traditional Heating

 

While the cost-effectiveness of wood burners can fluctuate with fuel prices, they offer unique advantages. Along with our bulk firewood pricing, here is what you can control:

  • You can maintain control over fuel sources and supplies.
  • You can have independence from grid-based energy systems.
  • You have the potential to lower long-term heating costs.

 

If you’re currently enjoying an open fire, consider the leap to a modern eco-design stove:

 

For significantly improved efficiency, eco-design wood-burning stoves that meet DEFRA regulations can help. These are designed to allow much more air into the fire and avoid your fire being ‘starved’. According to the SIA, Eco-designed stoves can reduce particle emissions by up to 90% when compared to an open fire and 80% when compared to a traditional stove.

  • Reduced heat loss up the chimney.
  • Lower firewood consumption.
  • Cleaner burning for a healthier environment

Beyond Heating: The Well-Being Benefits of Wood Burners

 

The appeal of a wood burner extends far beyond its practical uses.

  • Stress reduction through fire-watching. According to sciencedirect.com, watching a controlled fire is associated with relaxation in terms of lowered blood pressure and relaxing effects on the brain. 
  • Creation of a cosy, inviting atmosphere.
  • There is potential for improved air quality with modern, efficient models.
