Fireplace Transformation: Open Fire Upgrade to Woodwarm Stove in Penzance, Cornwall
Are you tired of losing precious heat up an old, drafty chimney? We recently completed a complete fireplace upgrade in Penzance, Cornwall, transforming an outdated open fire and surround into a highly efficient, modern heating system featuring a Woodwarm multi-fuel stove.
Open fireplaces are notoriously inefficient, often losing up to 80% of their heat straight up the chimney while drawing cold air into the room. By removing the old surround and installing a modern, sealed multi-fuel stove, we drastically increased the room's heat output while lowering the homeowner's fuel costs.
