kazaddress Posted December 4, 2006 Share Posted December 4, 2006 very very hot gossip. Simon (after 3 years of hassling) has finally installed the wood burning stove. WE HAVE HEAT *WOOO HOOO* Our gas boiler was turned off shortly after we moved in as I had serious CO poisening from it. It was SO NICE to not need to wear gloves last night all 3 cats were huggled in front of it. signed.. yours warm toastie of Farnborough Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Dogmother Posted December 4, 2006 Share Posted December 4, 2006 It'll need to have a back boiler then Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kazaddress Posted December 4, 2006 Author Share Posted December 4, 2006 got one.. Its just sitting there waiting to be fitted were hoping to use that to heat the central heating (only 4 radiators) and the hot water in the winter.. in the summer we are getting a solar collector to heat our hot water Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Dogmother Posted December 4, 2006 Share Posted December 4, 2006 That must all be costing you a pretty penny! I love my stove and get it going as soon as i get in in the evening. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kazaddress Posted December 4, 2006 Author Share Posted December 4, 2006 lets just say its cheaper then the £5000 the gas man wanted to fit a new boiler, and re do the plumbing to it! (stove cost £500, flew cost £150) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
