    hi, im currently considerin upgrading from an open fire to a medium size non boiler 7-9 kw stove to heat sitting room as well as adjoining room separated by double doors. I also want to leave door to hall open to heat up also.

    I think im limited to multifuel stoves with depths of less than 480mm as hearth goes out to 480mm. The ones ive seen so far that would fit are the dimplex westcott 8, bilberry 8kw and waterford stanley oisin or oscar stoves.....could anyone advise me on how good these are (or arent) please and which would be best??Id appreciate it if ye can advise any others that would suit my situation considerin the size of the hearth also thanks

    What every size stove you go for you must have 12 inches of heart in front of it.unless you have tiles.also if you have a wooden surrounding it has a minimal distance depending on kw.

    Posted at the top of the page would have got you more replies, or do you think your stove enquiry requires a lone thread.
