I have a firefox 5 that I fitted myself, they do a 7 and 9kw and are defra approved for burnibg wood in a smokeless zone. it kicks out shite loads of heat my only regret is i never had one years ago.
good luck on your search

Im seriously considering getting a multi fuel stove put in so me and mrs grumbles can lie on a sheepskin rug in front of it swopping spit,i realise i have to use someone whos hetta registered to do it and im quite happy with that,ive used copex before and laid many a hearth but ive no experience with stove connections for the gasses etc,i was thinking of something that kicks out about 6 or 7 kw and ive been looking at the stovax range ,has anyone out there got a stove and what would you reccomend?I can only go up to ?500 tops for the stove itself,any help would be nice,regards,grumbles

great idea,my folks got one last year,hooked it up to the water and rads,9kw,the heat it kicks out is immense,they got that to get rid of the gas bill,admittedly you have to get the fuel for it,but it works out cheaper for them,,im getting one in my gaff this year,,one other thing is getting the chimney lined,this has to be done if you want to get the full usage of the heat from the stove,if you dont you will loose some of the heat,,once the flu pipe is fitted a type of fine sand is dropped down and around the flu pipe to insulate the chimney stack,,a must imho
gtood luck with the spit swapping !

Cheers for all the replies and help people,i have been informed by she who must be obeyed that when i have put a new bathroom suite in and re-tiled the bathroom,made a shower room,re-boarded and re-felted the garage roof,lined the soffits and fascias with upvc and done a spot of decorating......then i can have my stove.By the time i get all that done there wont be any trees left to burn,what a bitch..

will have to say to you, i've had a two in my home over past 20 odd years, they can be dusty when you clean them out, and they need de-ashed at least every other day
