modern double sided wood burner

Modern Double Sided Wood Burner, Ropley, East Hampshire

This property featured an unusually deep double sided open fire. The customer opted to have us install a Parkray Aspect 4 double sided, double depth stove.

There was a lot of heat damage to the inside of the fireplace from the original open fire – we first removed all the old material and then replaced this with heat proof render. This also required us to plaster each face of the chimney breast. The chimney was actually too large a diameter for the stove to function correctly so we opted to re-line the chimney with a flexible liner and bird guard cowl. Once all this work was completed we fitted the double sided stove. The customer had requested the stove to be set up as a multi fuel appliance, which in this case was an optional multi fuel kit. Once set up and tested the fire looked great and solved the problem of the draft, inefficient open fire.

Double Sided Wood Burner Installation, Farnham, Surrey

This property featured a double sided open fireplace. Fireplaces like this are often the poorest performing and as you can see by the staining above the fireplace – this one had been spilling smoke for years. To give the customer a properly working, safe and efficient way of heating their room we fitted a Parkray Aspect 4, double sided wood burner. This required us to sweep and line the chimney. The hearth looked great but did require some repair work where the original fire basket has sat. The staining on the very aged brickwork was actually a great aesthetic of this fireplace – and looked great with the addition of the new, slightly modern look of the stove.
