## Frequently asked questions (verbatim)

**How long does a typical stove installation take?**
Most stove installations take 1–2 days to complete, depending on the complexity of the project. This includes removal of old appliances (if applicable), installation of the new stove, and any necessary chimney or flue work.

**What does HETAS certification mean?**
HETAS is the official UK body that approves biomass and solid-fuel heating appliances, fuels and services. Our HETAS registration means we are qualified to install, service and maintain solid-fuel heating systems in compliance with building regulations and safety standards.

**Do I need building regulations approval?**
Yes — most stove installations require building-regulations approval. As HETAS-registered installers we handle all the necessary paperwork and provide a compliance certificate on completion.

**Do I need an existing chimney to install a stove?**
No. We install twin-wall flue systems for properties without a chimney and can also build complete traditional chimneys.

**Is a multi-fuel stove better than a wood-burning stove?**
It depends on your needs. Multifuel offers flexibility, but a dedicated wood-burning stove is often cleaner and more efficient. Dried hardwood burns with very little smoke and excellent heat output.

**How often should I have my stove serviced?**
Annually. Service includes flue sweep, seal and gasket check, and overall condition inspection.

**What types of fuel can I burn?**
Wood-burning stoves: seasoned hardwood only. Multifuel stoves: wood, smokeless coal and approved smokeless fuels. Never burn treated wood, plastic or household waste.

**How efficient are modern stoves?**
Typically 70–85% efficient — far higher than a traditional open fire (~20%).

**Can I see stoves before purchasing?**
Yes. Our St Lawrence showroom displays a wide range of stoves and fires. Open Tuesday–Saturday, 09:00–17:00.

**What warranty do you provide?**
Comprehensive warranties on both products and installation work. Stove manufacturer warranties range from a few years up to lifetime cover on selected models. Extended warranties available.

**Do I need permission to install a wood-burning stove in Jersey?**
Jersey stove installations must comply with island building regulations. As a HETAS Registered Company we handle all compliance paperwork and provide a full certificate on completion.

**Do you cover all parishes in Jersey?**
Yes — every parish: St Helier, St Brelade, St Saviour, St Lawrence, St Clement, St Peter, St Ouen, St Mary, St John, St Martin, Grouville and Trinity. Free home survey available island-wide.
