Review of Stovax Stockton 5 stove
Not warm enough
We had our stove fitted in November 2011.Nice looking stove but we think it was fitted too far back.The walls on either side of it are too hot to touch.Salesman told us it would heat the hall and dining room.
as well as the sitting room .We are struggling to heat the sittingroom!!Certainly disappointed with the volume of heat.Stove expert replied: Clearance around the stove should be 150mm either side, 150mm at the back and 300mm above so if this is not the case it may be best to get the stove moved forward with a rear flue and allowing the radiant heat to circulate into the room rather than into the surrounding materials.
