As many modern gas stoves literally burn money, why not consider making the most of the winter nights with a traditional wood burning stove. For the eco- friendly consumer, a wood burning stove offers a more renewable energy but no sacrifice on heat output, potentially saving you money to splash out on that latest gadget for Christmas.
To give you some idea of how popular wood fuel is becoming, the Scottish Forestry Commission have even set up a ‘Wood Fuel Task Force’ to increase the supply of wood available for renewable energy production.
The wood you use at home may not have a task force devoted to it, but you can still buy fuel from green sources, such as a managed forest. If you opt for a wood pellet stove you might be even more green – wood pellets are made from waste wood products such as sawdust. This gives even waste wood another use so less trees need to be cut down to provide home fuel.
The traditional image of wood stoves might be back in fashion, but if the country cottage look is not for you don’t panic. With an ever more modern range of sleek looking designs, such as this cool eco- stove, a wood burner provides a chic and cost effective center piece to any home. The perfect way to warm your house this winter.
Let’s face it, with a design like that and eco-credentials, it beats watching the Christmas repeats on any energy-sucking plasma screen.
