Unlike freestanding stoves that sit on the hearth, inset stoves are set within a cavity, often providing a more contemporary and integrated appearance. They are ideal for smaller spaces or for those looking to achieve a minimalist design.

Yes, inset stoves needs proper venting, typically through an existing chimney. However, the chimney may need a liner to safely and efficiently carry away smoke and gases. A professional installation is often required to correctly integrate the stove and flue system.

Inset stoves are generally very efficient, often on par with or even exceeding the efficiency of freestanding stoves. They are designed to maximize heat output while minimising heat loss through the chimney. Many modern inset stoves feature advanced airwash systems, secondary burn technology, and high-quality insulation, making them an excellent choice for efficient heating.

Not all existing fireplaces are suitable for inset stoves. The fireplace opening needs to be the right size, and there must be adequate clearance and insulation to safely accommodate the stove. Additionally, structural modifications may be required to meet building regulations. It's important to have your fireplace and chimney inspected by a professional to determine suitability and any necessary alterations before installation.
