Stuv Inset wood burner with brick fireplace

Stuv Inset Log Burner Installation, Bordon, Hampshire

FireBug were asked to fit a stove into this customers brickwork fireplace. When a fireplace opening is very small it is often best to fit an inset log burner. This type of stove will give you the biggest firebox for the size of the opening, as opposed to a freestanding that will need an air gap around the stove. The Stuv inset log burner looked great with the very modern looking fireplace. We removed the original fireback, swept and then lined the chimney. Fitting and testing the Stuv inset was the final stage.

The Stuv inset log burner is one of FireBug’s favourite inset stoves available, along with the Contura i4 – the goto stoves when a small inset log burner is required.

Modern Fireplace Surround With Inset Log Burner, Headley, Hampshire

FireBug were asked to create a modern fireplace surround to house an inset wood burning stove. The fireplace is created out of brickwork with a heat proof render to finish. We made the mantlepiece from a beautiful piece of horse chestnut. This is finished with a natural wax and shows the natural edge of the wood.

The stove is a Contura i5 inset stove. We manufactured a trim which is painted to match the stove to really finish the fireplace off. Luckily we managed to utilise the original hearth which sits in front of the fireplace and inside the wood store area.

This fireplace really transformed the room and gave the customers a clean and efficient way to heat their living room.
