Review of Broseley Hercules 30b boiler stove

19 years and still going strong

Andy Whytock 3 months ago

I have had our Broseley Hercules 30B for 19 years. This stove has been the best thing ever for us, we only use dry firewood that has been well seasoned. We have 22 radiators and the stove is well capable of heating the whole house. In the 19 years I have replaced the grating 3 times and also replaced the front bars once. Can’t rate this boiler stove highly enough
