• Seven years of service.

  We had our multi fuel stove installed in 2009 and have been more than happy with the performance. Anyone not happy with a 5kw stove is not using it properly. It is starting to show it's age now but it's had so much use I can hardly complain. I recently replaced the fire rope seals and next year will need to replace the fire bricks.... [ read more ]

  just fitted the stove but there is just a metal base. It's a wood burning stove . Do I burn wood on the base of the stove or should there be a grate ?

  I had this stove fitted about a year ago and I have to be honest it's been excellent. It burns fuel quite efficiently and the heat it gives off is also very good. If there is one downside to... [ read more ]

• Not so HOT Hunter

  Chris Verburg 5 years ago

  We can get the fire going and put in our logs which start to burn well so we close the bottom vent, half close the top one and the fire goes out after about half an hour, if we leave the top... [ read more ]

  Stove expert replied: Is the flue lined? Is the wood being used dry and seasoned with a moisture content of less than 20%? If you leave the bottom vent open a little does this help to maintain the fires momentum or try leaving the top vent fully open with the bottom closed once the fire is established. Logs that are no bigger than 100mm (4inch) diam should be used. Is this is a room that is well insulated where little air circulates as an airbrick may be required (depends on insulation, double glazing, cavity wall insulation etc)

• Hate this stove!

  Gaynor 6 years ago

  We have two wood burners: our Charnwood is fab but the Hunter Streamline is a dirty dusty beast in comparison. The firebox is too shallow to be practical so every time you open the door piles... [ read more ]

  Stove expert replied: The problem with the smoke coming back in the room may be caused by the Charnwood flue having a stronger draw on it that the Hunter one and when the doors on the Hunter are opened the flue gases do not have enough lift to get them away from the firebox and they get drawn back into the room. Often when more than one chimney is used probelms can occur. Speak to a Chimney Expert for further advice.
