Replacement Stove Glass
In years gone by once you had cracked or broken the glass in your stove it was actually sometimes cheaper to replace the stove itself. The situation has changed in recent times with significant growth in the UK stove market which has been replicated in the area of stove replacement glass. It is also worth noting that this has historically been an area which the stove manufacturers have been able to dominate, introducing their own pricing structure with customers effectively having nowhere else to go for their replacement glass.
Specialist stove glass
Whether you're looking for Morso stove glass, Arrow stove glass or any of the other leading woodburning/multifuel stove manufacturers in the UK, there are now more options than ever before. Heat resistant stove glass can now be manufactured to the specific size of your stove at a significantly cheaper price than that supplied by the manufacturers. As a consequence the cost of replacement stove glass continues to fall and when you bear in mind how often and how easy it is to crack or damage the glass, this is a godsend for many people.
Accidents do happen
Even though stove glass is very hard wearing, heat resistant and extremely tough, there will be occasions when it can be damaged. Indeed, if you have had your stove for a fairly long time it may well be that the heat resistant element of your stove glass has been reduced and it may be worth replacing this to be on the safe side.
While it is always an option to purchase replacement stove glass direct from the original manufacturer of your stove you will be surprised at the alternatives available today. We're not talking about small savings on non-branded replacement glass with instances of branded stove glass costing anything up to 2 or three times that of their generic counterparts! This is not advertised as widely as you would hope, as you might expect, although here at Bowland Stoves we have access to both branded and unbranded replacement stove glass.
Delivered direct to your doorstep
Whether you would prefer to give us a call to chat in more detail about the options or whether you are confident in using our comprehensive and user-friendly online system, the options are there. In just a matter of days you will have your replacement glass delivered to your doorstep, with step-by-step instructions which you can either carry out yourself or pass to a qualified stove engineer.
It is literally just a case of removing the seal around your broken stove glass, replacing the glass and then replacing the seal. You will notice a difference in the quality of the heat produced and the efficiency of your stove as soon as the replacement glass is in. The ability to retain the majority of the heat created within the stove, to be radiated into your room slowly over a prolonged period of time, will also save you on the cost of fuel.
Conclusion
Gone are the days when the only option when looking to buy replacement stove glass online was through the manufacturer. This is now a growing market with an array of generic and branded products available for those with different budgets. While they are relatively easy to fit, it is probably worthwhile consulting a stove technician if you have any doubts as it will literally take them just a few minutes to replace the glass and the seal. You will then immediately feel the difference in heat and in your pocket!
