INSTALLING A STOVE IN A SHED OR SHEPHERD HUT? READ THE STOVE YARD’S COMPREHENSIVE GUIDE!
If you’re planning to install a stove in your shed, hut, cabin or garden office then no doubt you’ve probably already visited some websites and also watched a few of the many YouTube videos to help kick-start your project. It’s important though to point out that a lot of these ‘how to’ videos, however well-intentioned they may be, in our opinion are grossly misinformed and some of the practices shown are actually downright dangerous. At the moment, and for the foreseeable future, there are no specific regulations regarding installing wood burning and multi fuel stoves in, to use the recognised term ‘temporary leisure accommodation’, so what’s a prospective installer supposed to do to ensure a safe and effective stove installation? To help you, The Stove Yard have put together a definitive, no-nonsense guide combining current building regulations with best practice, including from HETAS, and The Stove Yard’s own practical hands-on experience and advice. Check it out now so that you don’t make the same mistakes as the YouTube videos.
