  1. Think the nearest is likely to be Verdo renewables. A
  2. Have a look at the Fuelwood specials page. A
  3. 18-19 tonnes usually. £500 for transport to shift 26 tonnes on an artic would kill it for me, Midhurst to me is 125 miles. A
  4. I have a JAPA 700 myself, good machine when starting out, I am rapidly outgrowing it though. Use a MF 135 to power it. No knowledge of the other two, dont see either up for sale that often. A
  5. OLD house would suggest that a liner is a wise choice, the cement in older properties breaks down between the bricks and allows smoke to penetrate. We had a situation just like that, ground floor flat insisted that we did not line due to cost, smoke penetrated an upper story flat due to crack in chimney, customer now cant use stove until they can afford to line the chimney, and its 4 stories so scaffolding needed as its far to high to safely install off ladders. 4 stories up plus maybe a loft area though will mean scaffolding or a cherry picker. If the current air vents are permanently open and un closable then you may be ok, imagine a 22mm OD plumbing pipe, you will want one of those for each KW or part kw over 5.0 kw. We usually put a 127mm core drill through the wall and insert a Stadium ventilator. That covers every stove we sell. A
  6. Be better to buy a tractor such as a Fordson Super Major to power it and move it about. A
  7. Nick cant do it at present so that takes me out unless you have a local guy that could shift it. A
  8. I would take it but the haulage would kill it for me I think. Will enquire with Nick, his trailer has a weigher on board so no problems knowing what you get. A
  9. Burley site states efficiency at 84-89 % depending on model. at 98% that would imply no heat is lost up the flue pipe. Efficiency figure is not to be taken to literally at there are several ways of measuring it, net and gross that we usually use in the UK and EN which is usually used for stoves tested in Europe. A stove tested under EN will give about a 6% higher reading than the same stove tested in the UK and given a gross result. This is as I understand it (and I stand to be corrected if wrong) due to the moisture present in the wood used for uk test, EN test are usually done using smokeless fuel. Most Burley do have a multifuel option, but I dont think they are made in Europe. A
  10. Say 6m x 4.5m = 27sqm x 2.5m = 67 cu m. Poor insulation divide by 12 (5.5kw), average ins divide by 14 (5kw), good ins divide by 16 (4kw) roughly. Stoves of that size usually have a flue outlet of 125mm diameter, building regs stipulate that unless the stove is DEFRA approved to burn wood in a smoke control area a 150mm flue liner be used. If the stove is DEFRA approved then we can use a 125mm liner. Fitting a flue liner is not legally compulsory, however it will help the stoves efficiency. Some inset stoves due to their design must be fitted with liners. Providing your chimney is sound and not to large then you should be OK without a liner but anything built before 1950 should really be lined. Some companies will not install a stove without installing a liner, this is their choice. 5.1kw or above you will need a permanently open air vent in the room, if a new house tested for air tightness air vent is needed anyway. Steer clear of all chinese made crap, average life 3-5 years. Make sure that your stove is actually made in UK or Europe, some major brands are now having their stoves made in the far east, as a result build quality is not what it was. A
  11. No it cant. There is a Morso Badger there as well, that would do fine providing you have a decent sized room, ( 5m x 6m) to shove it in. the 5kw its rated at is downrated to get over a air brick requirement in the building regs. Small room the look for a Morso Squirrel, same as that gas one but multifuel. Parts are easily available even for a 40 year old stove. A
  12. Pm received, customers are not rich I am afraid. Have a look and see where you are coming and when, I am NN6 7PQ. If I can be fitted in fine but if not no worries, I have got to go to Derbyshire with a trailer this summer and can probably pick some up from Joy. A
  13. I could take some, near M1 J18, what sort of cost are you looking at for perhaps 50 bags. Cant work out why I cant sell much of it. A
  14. I did not realise that it is illegal. Visibility from a tele-porter is a bit iffy but a decent set of mirrors makes it as good as most HGVs. Cant say I would like 14 tonnes behind me with one though but I would not think twice about half that weight. A
  15. I understand that log fueled boilers will also need to be fed logs from RHI approved suppliers. Has the Heatas fuel assurance scheme folded?, I thought it was being run in conjunction with woodsure, Fuel Approval - HETAS A
  16. Shoot, model railways, dont get a lot of time for them though. A
  17. I find 2 cube + a few spare sticks is more than enough on the JAPA manual rack. A
  18. Avoid any crerosoted timbers, the treatment goee pretty well all the way though. Some of the milling boys here will have a suitable untreated product. Failing that pm me, I sell oak beams. A
  19. My 25kw wood pellet boiler is similar, was advised by the seller that fuel use woud be 4 - 6 tonnes per annum and fill every three days in winter. It can burn for 9 hours max runnign heating when its cold. Fill at 6am with 60 kilos, need to refill about 3pm with another 60 kilos. Used 10 tonnes of pellets and a couple of tonnes of wheat last winter, put a standard radiating stove into the lounge, this has reduced pellet use by about 30% this winter. A
  20. Acquired a County?. A
  21. Just reviewing this topic and noticed the long range fuel tank strapped to the side of the trailer !!. A
  22. That should be done and dusted in a couple of weeks given some dry weather, all hands to the pump on that one. A
  23. Or logs !!!!!!!!!!!!. A
  24. Just noticed, Birmingham, sorry. A
