Hi to all,
I am currently looking for a new wood burner for my bungalow. We have quite a big open plan space having knocked down walls to the kitchen and dining room from the living room. I had a AGA Ludlow 6.5k in my last house which was a smaller space and was very happy with that. But this is a much bigger space and all the recommendations I am getting is go with a 5kw max (seems counter intuitive to do this considering I was at 6.5k in a smallish room previously).
My requirements are cast iron and a nice space to fit a big fat log in once the fire is going well. I have looked at a clock blithfield 5kw nominal which seems good but is not cast iron.
Any advice please?
Thanks in advance
Derek

Thank you all for the advice. I like cast iron as it will stay hot for longer when I stop loading it up. We only burned wood in our last one but even so the room would be warm the next morning when coming downstairs. The house is being renovated so is having 50mm rigid insulation on all external facing walls prior to plasterboard but the room it will go in is 8m X 8m and the plan would be to keep a set of double doors open to let heat go to the rest of the house including upstairs.
