Multi-fuel Insert boiler Stove - Help/Advice Needed

    Hi,
    I really need some advice. I'm just embarking on a new build and I have to decide on my stove so that the correct dimensions are left for the chimney. I was hoping to purchase a multi-fuel insert stove that is flush with the wall. I would like a good Kw output to the room and there are about 16 - 18 radiators to benefit from it. I'm finding it really hard to locate what I am looking for. Today I drove a long journey to a shop that sells insert stoves from Poland. They have one that is 30Kw output called Hestia, Zuz of 10 to the room and 20 to the rads. It looks nice with a large glass front. Does anyone know about these? Or where I can also look for a suitable stove that is also aesthetically pleasing? Thanks

    I am using three zones but I want the stove to be sufficient to heat all over if needed. I only have oil as my other option which is too expensive so need a very efficient boiler stove - would just like to also purchase a neat looking flush with the wall stove too when I'm at it, if it's possible to find one!

    Yes u can get one to do your job, the big question is were are u getting your fuel to run such a large stove to heat that amount off water, be prepared to load very often

    What would you recommend? & where can I get one? I have access to a lot of fuel, particularly wood & turf, but I would also like option to use coal if needed

    I have a wood burner with no ash pan no riddling grate. Just cast iron bottom plate. This leaves the stove so easy to clean out And guess what I burn coal in it all the time. Remember buy cheap you get cheap and also be prepared to have to replace as the cheap models are made from Thin steel and they are nowhere near efficient. Do u have a budget in mined

    Are you a stockist? I'm willing to pay well if I get what I'm looking for I was just looking for some names and stockists, money is not the issue but I'm not willing to pay for something that looks great & doesn't work properly so as I've said I'd like a multi fuel insert stove connects to boiler & a high kw output any suggestions?

    Hi Guys,

    We have just completed this process.

    We wanted a boiler inset multifuel stove.

    We chose this one:

    http://www.henleystoves.com/fires/oxford-7kw-7/the-faro-570-18kw-boiler

    We are burning both dry wood & smokeless coal.

    We are very happy with the style & the boiler performance.

    I have no connection to the supplier - just a happy customer

    Hope this helps.

    Regards

    Tanka

    Very interested in the new Faro boiler range but haven't got much feedback. What do you think? Have a pic of the finished install to show?

    Hi therealmccoy,

    We have the 18KW version plenty of heat to the radiators & the room is very comfortable - not too hot!

    Here is a pic as requested.

    Only problem we are experiencing is the blackness on the glass - but we are only learning / experimenting!

    Good luck

    Hi Tanka006,

    Do you have a double sided with back boiler version ?


  • Registered Users Posts: 192 ✭✭tanka006


    Hi janmolbye,

    No we only have single sider.

    I forgot to mention - double check that you have the depth for this stove!

    it is really deep
