Hi, I am planning to install a wood burning stove just for additional heating in what is currently a large open fireplace with straight chimney flue in a room approx 4m x 5m. I have read as many threads as I can find on this topic and its obviously a complex area. Does anyone have any companies they could recommend in the Normany Calvados region or experiences they could pass on to me ? One point I'm unsure about is any impacts on house insurance, is there a need for a certification from the installer ? Do I need to inform my insurer ? Also I gather well seasoned oak may be the best fuel source, any info on costs would be helpful. In the UK I would pay about £80-£100 for a load delivered on a flat bed transit size van but that would be mixed loppings. Regards,
