4 Benefits of a Wood Heater*

Wood heaters are a great choice for both indoor and outdoor areas. With a range of options available on the market, there are designs and styles to suit every type of space and provide that much needed heat source you’ve been looking for. Whether you choose a traditional wood heater or contemporary freestanding wood fireplace, you will be sure to experience the following benefits. 

 

  1. Wood heaters are effective

Wood heaters produce a good amount of heat to ensure your house remains warm and comfortable. Unlike alternative heating methods, wood heaters work quickly, and they work well. Depending on the size, they can heat an entire house if the right wood is used and it is stoked regularly. 

  1. Wood heaters reduce your heating bill

Wood heaters are a cheaper alternative to more modern heating options like split systems. This is especially true in smaller towns and rural areas, where it is easy to source firewood. In some instances, people are able to collect firewood themselves, costing no more than a chainsaw, fuel and time to heat their entire home. This makes it an extremely economical choice for heating. Even people who live in more suburban areas can minimize their power costs by using a wood heater. Firewood is generally available at local hardware stores or garden supplies for an affordable price and will reduce the amount of electricity the household uses. 

  1. Wood heaters are a greener way to generate heat

Wood heaters are a more environmentally friendly heating method than those that use fossil fuels for operation. While wood heaters still emit smoke that can produce unhealthy carcinogenics, they do not produce carbon dioxide and contribute to climate change like fossil fuels do when they are burnt. The impact of carcinogenics should not be dismissed, especially given that they can be detrimental to humans if inhaled too much, however wood heaters are much better for the environment. Wood is also considered a renewable energy source as it can be replenished by planting new trees. 

  1. Wood heaters create a soft, romantic vibe

Wood heaters or freestanding wood fireplaces can be the perfect statement piece for your indoor or outdoor area. Creating a soft, flickering light, a wood fireplace is sure to make any setting a romantic one. They come available in a range of designs, including different shapes, sizes and colours, so can be adapted to any area. Consider a wood heater to establish the relaxing ambience you’ve been looking for.

 

Wood heaters are stylish and effective, making them the perfect choice for heating. They will provide a visual statement, create a mood in your space and actually generate the heat you’ve been needing. To top it off, wood heating is an environmentally-friendly alternative to traditional fossil fuels, so getting one really is a win whichever way you look at it! If you’re designing a new space or looking to replace your existing heating source, consider a wood heater or wood fireplace.
