Mr ** of Battle came to us looking for a woodburning stove to be installed into a brick false chimney that had been built at his property.  It soon became apparent that clearance requirements from combustible materials would mean that the timber beam installed at the top of the opening would prevent a woodburning stove being installed here.  Further questions established that our client’s key requirements were an aesthetically pleasing stove that was highly efficient, and has a high enough output to heat the room on its own for most of the year.  The Balanced Flue Yeoman gas stove that we installed met our client’s requirements for a fire, as well as satisfying the manufacturers clearance requirements to enable it to be installed below the beam.
