So what is a Multifuel Stove?

A multifuel stove is very similar to a wood-burning stove in appearance and design. Multifuel refers to the capability of the stove to burn wood and also coal, also sometimes wood pellets, or peat. Stoves that have a grate for the fire to burn on and a removable ash pan are generally considered multi fuel stoves.

Many of our stoves come in multi-fuel or wood burning varieties – in both contemporary or traditional styles.  We have a huge range of stoves of all shapes and sizes in our Colney Heath showroom close to St Albans, many of which you can see alight to get a real idea of how the stove would look in your home.

Multifuel stoves are our most popular products and all of us have them in our homes.  If you take care only to burn seasoned wood  and look after your stove it will last many winters and become the heart of your home.

In addition to our unique collection of thousands of original cast iron fireplaces, our architectural antique areas are extensive.  We have devoted a lot of time and effort to salvage rare treasures like stone sinks and stained glass windows alongside more common items like chimney pots, drainage hoppers and iron table bases.

Our extensive on-site workshops also allow us to manufacture commissions in natural limestones, granites, slates and sandstones.  These range from simple window cills and kitchen worktops through to hand carved ornate chimney pieces.

Alongside these traditional materials we are also utilising more contemporary materials like Quartz, Lapitec and sintered ceramic stones to meet the demanding requirements of our clients. We are happy to supply designers and architects as well as members of the public with our unique blend of products, workmanship and antiques.

Electric stoves are a relatively new branch of the stove business and are generally steel or cast iron boxes with an electric effect mounted  into them with a fan heater underneath.  The flame effect is not usually as realistic as the wood or gas burning versions although some models are now using LEDs which is improving the overall effect.

Electric stoves are the ultimate in convenience, just plug in, set the required temperature and then sit back and relax!

If you are looking for a stove centrepiece for your living room, bedroom kitchen but don’t want the inconvenience of cleaning up ash or stocking up on logs an LED electric stove might be just the thing you’re looking for.  Warmth and a welcoming glow without the industrial look of many electric heaters or radiators, electric stoves are available to view in our showroom.
