Any stove fitted with a heat OUTPUT that exceeds 5KW has to by law have an external vent installed to outside air; these are normally fitted through the brick work and allow the stove to function correctly with a source of clean air.
As this is a requirement as part of them being fitted correctly by a HETAS registered fitter we have taken the decision to offer them for sale on our website so customers can simply order them with the stove.
So on our website we offer the Ventilation kits for sale in our flue pipe section and have them in stock to send out via TNT or can deliver with your stove order by our own vans.
So for all the technical information it is as follows
