The Charnwood Skye stove may seem relatively small but this is a stove which certainly packs a punch when it comes to visual impact and efficiency. Described as a state-of-the-art stove by Charnwood it is obvious that time has been taken to research and develop this particular model which offers an efficiency rating of up to 86%. Whether you go for the low stand or the log stand will significantly impact the look and feel of the stove.

Technical specifications

The Charnwood Skye stove is available in wood-burning and multifuel variations with heat output between 2 kW and 7 kW resulting in a 5 kW normal rating.

You have bought the stove, you have your wood supply to hand and this new style of heat is deep-seated and extremely welcome. However, are you making the most of your wood-burning stove? Are you making life as simple as possible when collecting fuel? There are some interesting accessories for the modern day wood-burning stove enthusiast to consider.

Log carriers and log baskets

Whether you are carrying logs in from nearby or you are venturing into the woods to find natural fuel you will need to consider a log carrier and a log basket. There are many different types of log carrier and log basket made from different materials and different styles. One of the more popular types has to be the wicker basket which doubles up as a log carrier and a stylish log basket.

As you can imagine, the intense heat created by the modern day wood-burning and multifuel stove can in the long-term impact certain components such as fire bricks. It is therefore essential that fire bricks are checked on a regular basis to ensure there is no damage, no cracks and they are in full working order. You will find that many stove manufacturers class firebricks as “consumables” therefore they may not covered by the standard warranty. This is because of the general wear and tear they will experience over the years – although they will not need replaced too regularly, it is worth monitoring their condition.

Types of stove fire brick

While the heat reflective vermiculite firebricks/panels are the most commonplace today because of their cost and their performance, they are just one of three types of fire brick. There is also the traditional clay firebrick as well as steel/cast-iron fire “cheeks” which are still commonplace today but not as popular as vermiculite. The main reason for firebricks is to ensure that as much of the heat created is contained within the stove to be circulated in a controlled manner. The firebricks also ensure that the outer casing is not subjected to prolonged and excessive heat which could cause cracking and warping.

The old adage, if it looks too good to be true then it probably is too good to be true fits many areas of everyday life. It is also applicable when looking for stove replacement parts because sometimes you will come across cheap products which do look too good to be true. So, why should you avoid cheap stove spare parts and what are the potential consequences?

Built for your specific machine

There is no doubt that from time to time you will come across adverts promoting stove spare parts which fit specific machines even though they are not from the officially licensed spare parts range. In order to catch your attention these companies will undercut the official price of the spare part to save you a few pounds. We’re not suggesting that all companies who offer alternative spare parts are making untrue claims but the fact is that the only spare part you can trust is the one made by those who manufacture the stove.
