Most stoves will list the Heat Output (kw) and the size of the typical living space they are designed to heat. However these figures can be misleading.
The Heat Output of a Stove is not a measurement of the output of warmth into your room, it’s a measurement of the maximum temperature the stove can handle.
The typical living space is based on well-insulated rooms with eight foot high ceilings. If you have high ceiling, your room is less than well-insulated and/or the living space you want to heat is open to adjoining rooms or stairways openings than these factors need to be taken into consideration.
As part of Phoenix Plumbing & Heating’s Site Survey, we will advise you on the size and type of stove that will best meet your needs, where it will be best positioned in your room, and how we can improve the insulation in your room.
