About this service
A wood burning stove is a freestanding heating unit that radiates heat into the room through its metal exterior. These are great if you want a distinct look or if you are looking to heat a specific area without building a full masonry hearth. Installation involves setting up a non-combustible floor pad and a proper chimney pipe system. They are highly efficient options for supplemental heating.
