What to Consider When Purchasing Wood Burning Stoves

Even if you’ve done your research about your future wood burning stove, you may still have a few questions. Here are a few of the most common questions or concerns that we hear and our professional answers.

Freestanding or Insert Stove?

There are two main deciding factors when it comes to what you want out of a wood burning stove—location and how much space you want to heat. Freestanding wood stoves can be placed virtually anywhere in your home. With various styles and sizes, this type of stove is optimal for those wanting to heat their entire home with one unit.

On the other hand, wood-burning inserts are installed inside an existing masonry fireplace and "insert" into that fireplace's current location. Limited only by the location of your home's fireplace, insert stoves can still heat your home as effectively as a traditional freestanding wood-burning stove.

Finding the Right Size Wood Stove

Just like the previous question, finding the right size wood burning stove for you all depends on what you want for your home. Each of the wood stoves that we offer at LanChester has a different heat output (BTU) that will help us decide what size may be right for your home. Make sure you have the approximate measurements of the room or area you want to heat to help your showroom visit go a bit more smoothly.

Will the Stove Be Catalytic?

Wood burning stoves tend to come in two types—catalytic and non-catalytic. The catalytic version—in short—burns more ash and smoke before it's vented, thus creating less smoke and pollution. On the other hand, non-catalytic stoves do not have this extra step but can produce much more heat.

But with the newest EPA regulations and guidelines put in place in 2020, all stoves now have to be catalytic. And while we sold non-catalytic stoves in the past, LanChester Grill has taken the steps to help decrease the environmental footprint by only offering catalytic stoves.
