Most Common Issues with Log Burners, Multifuel & Biomass Stoves

Here are some of the most common issues that require repairing:

  • Stove pipe leaks: Stove pipes can develop leaks over time, which can allow smoke to escape into the room. This is a safety hazard and can also damage your home.
 
  • Cracked or broken glass: The glass in a burner and stove can crack or break if it is not properly cared for. This can allow smoke and heat to escape, and it can also be a safety hazard.
 
  • Clogged or blocked flues: Flues can become clogged or blocked with soot and ash, which can prevent the stove from burning properly. This can lead to smoke and fumes building up in the room, which is a safety hazard.
 
  • Faulty thermostats: Thermostats control the temperature of the stove, and they can malfunction over time. This can cause the stove to overheat, which can be a safety hazard.
 
  • Burning problems: Stoves can sometimes have problems burning properly. This can be caused by a number of factors, such as using the wrong type of wood, not using enough wood, or not cleaning the stove regularly.

Here are Some Tips for Preventing Problems with Your Burner or Stove:

  • Use enough wood: Don’t overload your burner or stove. This can cause the stove to overheat and can also create creosote buildup.
  • Clean your stove regularly: A dirty stove is less efficient and can create more problems. Clean your stove at least once a month.
  • Have your stove serviced annually: A qualified technician can inspect your stove for any problems and make any necessary repairs.
