Help identifying my wood burning stove and lining?

That wouldn't surprise me and may be the reason soot has fallen and built up on the register plate,

Probably , MEWP would be cheapest . I don't have a cowl but do think they are advisable  because with a stove there is negligible airflow when the stove is off to dry out rain and  a mixture of rainwater and sooty deposits is acidic and that percolating through cement is not good, my flue is cement cast in situ.

 

I would love to have easy access to my chimney as not only would I sweep from there downward but I would also go to some effort to make a DIY electrostatic particulate filter to sit at the chimney top.

No point,  rip the lot out,  then get the cherry picker in for the new install.

I've just landed in the same place as the OP. New house with wood burner.

On closer inspection it all needs ripping out and basically starting again. Annoying but hey ho, we live and learn.

To the OP, I wouldn't try lighting your burner as others have said. It looks as bad as my "install" ...

Good to know I am not alone. Kicking myself now for not asking for an installation certificate or similar. Hey ho we live and learn. 

 

Hoping to have someone in jan/feb to install a new wood burner. Good 3k lesson.

can anyone identify this log burner needs a new baffle, we have no information on it just a number on the door

Bsv 702-1

I cannot help with ID but you could buy a piece of vermiculite sheet and using the old baffle somewhat as a template cut a bit to size. You will need to be more careful loading logs as it is more fragile but will not burn like your baffle has.

The manufacturer name that keeps popping up is Kingfire.

 

As does "natural heating", might be worth a call 

 

Details are very thin on the ground tho, so maybe a imported and resold under various names ?

and there are after market suppliers who might have a baffle that is close enough to the original if you can get dimensions (even dimensions from inside the stove)

Is that the old baffle next to the fire?

They are only a bent bit of metal, most ag engineer shops will make one if you give them the bit to copy.
