Advise for all home workers<\/h3>\n
\n\t

Are you one of the lucky people who work from home? Or maybe you are considering working from home and setting up a home office?<\/p>\n

Well, if you are, then a wood burning stove or multi-fuel stove could be an amazing addition to help heat your home office all day (or night!). According to the TUC, the figure for people working at home has risen in the last 10 years by a\u00a0fifth. The\u00a0official figure is 1.5 million home workers! Home working is becoming more popular and employers are recognizing the benefits. So if you\u00a0are considering or are already working at home and would like a stove, then you need to think\u00a0carefully about its location.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>

Where do you plan on installing your stove?<\/h3>\n
\n\t

This sounds a silly question, but remember that\u00a0home offices can be set up in numerous\u00a0different ways.<\/p>\n

You may simply have\u00a0dedicated a\u00a0bedroom in your house or you may have converted your garage or you may have a log cabin\/garden building. This is essential and the remainder of the blog will explain\u00a0the necessary considerations for each of the options.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div>

Utilizing an existing room in your home<\/h3>\n
\n\t

If you are using a room inside your home already, then you have to consider the size and layout. Most\u00a0home workers will\u00a0sacrifice a spare bedroom or other room within their home to become their office. It is the simplest method and enables you to separate home life from work life by closing the door at the end of the day.<\/p>\n

If this is your plan, then you need to treat the installation as any normal installation within your home. We have various blogs about installation of stove which include building regulations. Simply browse our slider to\u00a0right of this text to view blogs related to installing stoves and building regulations.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div>

Point 1: Building type<\/p>\n

<\/strong>The floor has to be strong enough to support a stove and its hearth. This is essential. The size and type of hearth is also specific to the stove used, so different options are always available.<\/p>\n

Point 2: Flue\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n

The\u00a0building must have a roof which can have a hole for the flue.<\/p>\n

Point 3: Roof products<\/strong><\/p>\n

The roof and ceiling products must be\u00a0suitably finished and protected against fire and heat damage.<\/p>\n

Point 4: Roof height<\/strong><\/p>\n

Depending on the type of roof, your chimney or flue has to rise a certain distance from the roof. This is controlled by building regulations.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>
