🍂 Autumn Fireplace Prep 🍂

With the cooler weather on the way, now is the ideal time to make sure your wood burner is ready for winter. A bit of maintenance now can help keep your home warm, safe, and running efficiently all season long ❄️🔥

Here are a few important things to check this autumn:

✓ Empty and clean the firebox – removing excess ash and debris helps your fire burn more efficiently
✓ Check door seals and glass – good seals help retain heat and improve performance
✓ Inspect your flue and chimney – making sure everything is clear and safe for proper ventilation
✓ Use dry, seasoned firewood – it burns hotter, cleaner, and produces less smoke
✓ Test your smoke alarms – a simple but important safety check for every home

Taking care of these small jobs now means you can sit back, relax, and enjoy those cosy winter nights ahead 🏡✨

⚠️ IMPORTANT NOTICE FROM THE NZHHA ⚠️

It has come to the attention of the NZHHA, local Building Consent Authorities (BCAs), and NZ Police that there are operators within the industry claiming to hold NZHHA SFAIT or SFAST certification when records indicate they are not currently certified, and in some cases may never have held certification.

We have also received reports of homeowners being provided with documentation or advice that may not meet NZHHA certification standards. In some cases, homeowners have reportedly been told that their fireplace has been “condemned” and that the matter is required to be reported to the local BCA.

The NZHHA wishes to clarify that BCAs do not operate a system for recording or registering “condemned” domestic fireplaces in the manner being represented. Independent assessments carried out by properly certified NZHHA members have, in most instances, found that replacement or reinstallation work advised to homeowners was not required.

The NZHHA takes these concerns seriously. All NZHHA members are required to follow our Code of Conduct and uphold professional, ethical, and compliant industry practices at all times.

To help protect yourself, we strongly recommend using registered and currently certified NZHHA members for fireplace sweeping, servicing, inspections, and installations.

You can verify qualified NZHHA members here:

If you believe you may have been affected by misleading or improper practices, we encourage you to seek independent advice and, where appropriate, contact NZ Police to lodge a complaint. You are also welcome to contact the NZHHA for guidance or assistance on 06 390 6391.

Thank you for supporting professional and compliant industry standards.

Did you know wood burners are one of the oldest and most efficient ways to heat a home?

A well-installed woodfire can be up to 80% efficient, giving off more heat with less wood compared to an open fireplace.

Wood is also a renewable energy source, and when burned correctly in a modern burner, it produces fewer emissions.

Many people love the natural warmth that only a real fire provides, and studies show that the gentle crackle and glow of a woodfire can actually help reduce stress and create a cosy, welcoming atmosphere 🔥

Here's a couple more the hard working team have installed recently...

We have donated to the NZ Police Managers Guild for a number of years now. We feel it is money well spent especially with the increase in crime committed throughout our Communities.

Who are the New Zealand Police Managers' Guild Trust?

Established in 1997 as a charitable trust, the Police Managers’ Guild Trust provides straightforward, useful information that helps people avoid becoming victims of crime and works toward a safer community for you, your families and your businesses.

The Trust achieves this by educating communities through the use of its digital platforms including this website, social media, newsletters and through strategic partnerships with the business community.

Educational resources are published every day of the week tackling issues such as substance abuse, domestic abuse, better parenting, crime prevention, child safety and building safer communities together.

On average, over 3,000 Kiwis make use of our crime prevention education resources every week! This is made possible with thanks to over 20,000 local businesses, which have supported the Trust through sponsorship and advertising. The money raised from advertisers helps with the production and distribution of the education as well as the ongoing development of our crime prevention education resources.

Additionally, the Police Managers’ Guild Trust has returned in excess of 3.5 million dollars to New Zealand community organisations that either work to prevent crime or help the victims of crime.

A nice email tonight along with payment from a recent happy customer.

"Thanks for your excellent job, we are really enjoying the fireplace".

Our Hamilton couple had a Woodsman Tasman MKII installed in their two storey property.

Great to receive feedback, we appreciate it 🙏
