A Small Wood Burner Brings Warmth and Character to Your Living Space

A small wood stove adds warmth and personality to your living space. It can also be used to cook, especially if you choose the model with a stovetop option.

Larger wood stoves burn inefficiently when the draft is lowered and produce more creosote. The Louis stove was designed to be portable and is ideal for yurts or caravans.

Cooking

One of the benefits of owning a small wood stove is cooking it. This can bring a genuine sense of pride, pleasure and care, as well as an opportunity to escape from the frantic pace of our lives for a few minutes.

Planning is crucial when cooking on a log stove. Make a plan and select recipes that do not require high heat. Soups, stews, and casseroles are all good options. It's also an excellent idea to invest in some of Charnwood's log burner accessories, like the cooker plate for the wood stove that replaces the blanking plate on the stove's top and creates a powerful hotplate to cook on ideal for heating up your kettle!

The best way to ensure that your stove is in good working order, and that it's capable of cooking at the right temperature, is to use only the highest quality, well-seasoned wood. This will decrease the amount of creosote which can cause issues with chimneys if not burned properly. Hardwoods like oak or ash are suggested because they produce long coals that release heat slowly over time.

The baffles on your stove can be opened or closed to regulate airflow. This will allow you to build the perfect fire for toasting bread as well as slow simmering soups and casseroles, and ensuring the best combustion. It is essential to play with the baffles on your stove to discover the best settings for you.

It is also an excellent idea to buy trivets that are designed to be placed on top of the stove. This will keep your kettle from boiling dry when you put it on the stove, which can be a common error when first using a log burner! You can also purchase a stovetop tea kettle with built-in whistle. This is great for those who like to make coffee in a hurry.

Warmth

Woodburning stoves are an excellent source of warmth. Not only do they heat your home, but they also help to create an environmentally sustainable and healthy energy supply. The burning of wood can reduce the demand for electricity at times when the grid is busiest. This can help lower the cost of electricity.

You can also install a stove to heat hot water for your taps and radiators. This is ideal for people who have a small home or boat, and don't have the space to store a water heating unit.

Another great way to use the wood burner is to cook on it! There are a myriad of wood stoves with a flat top, ideal for heating pots and pans. The stove can be used to cook, roast, boil or steam. Make sure your stove is able to burn the fuel you are planning to use and is safe to do so.

Clean your wood stove. This will stop the dangerous creosote from accumulating and will keep the flames visible. It is essential to remove ash regularly.

It is also a good idea to ensure that you're using dry, well-seasoned wood. This will allow you to have the most efficient and safest burning possible and will also help reduce toxins in the atmosphere. Ideally, the firewood should be split, cut and placed in an area that has good ventilation for at least a year before it is brought inside. You can also purchase kiln-dried logs that are pre-cut, bagged and easy for you to store and transport.

It is also important to ensure that your wood stove is correctly sized to fit the space you want it to be installed in. Putting too large of a stove in a small area can result in smaller fires which can cause more creosote, which will reduce the amount of heat produced. A small wood-burning stove can be able to heat 500 square feet while a large wood burning stove can heat 1,000 square feet and an extra large wood stove will heat 2,200 square feet.

It is possible that you will need a chimney liner installed as part of the installation process.
