Sound advice.

A well written article to counteract the State Sponsored Propaganda slating Log burning stoves.

The test that shows your posh scented candles, and even frying eggs, can be more polluting at home than a wood burner

I’m not sure what they’re burning on that fire!
Let’s home they have a carbon monoxide alarm!

Sound advice from Lancashire Fire and Rescue.

Our crews were recently called to a fire caused by logs stored too close to a log burner.

Always keep wood, coal, and other fuels at a safe distance and use a spark guard around fire places, open fires and log burning stoves .

Let’s stay warm and safe.

I would just like to take this opportunity to thank all our customers, friends and followers for their support again this year. It is very much appreciated.

A fairly busy year as I wind my way down towards retirement so working less days now but still working 12 months of the year. Not going anywhere just yet though!

Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year to you and your families.

God bless you all.

🔥 Don’t Believe the Scaremongering Headlines — Woodburning Stoves Are Not Being BANNED 🔥

There’s a growing wave of panic online saying that woodburning stoves are being outlawed — but the facts say otherwise.

✅ The UK government recently confirmed under the upcoming Future Homes Standard (FHS) that wood-burning stoves will still be permitted as a secondary heating source in new homes.
✅ According to the independent consumer body Which?, as of 2025 “there are no plans to ban wood burners” outright — though regulations and fuel requirements are tighter.
✅ Yes — there are new rules to improve air quality (e.g. only Ecodesign-certified stoves can be sold, certain fuels are restricted in smoke control areas) — but that’s about responsible use, not a blanket ban.

➡️ In short: the headlines claiming “WOODBURNING STOVES BANNED” are misleading. What’s really happening is a push for cleaner, safer wood-burning practices, not a ban.

If you already own a stove, or are thinking of installing one, there’s no evidence they’re being outlawed. They remain legal when used correctly.
