Double Sided Stove - need advice

Double Sided Stove - need advice

Postby lilly1000 » Tue Aug 16, 2022 4:26 pm

Hi Everyone,
We are looking to put in a double sided stove into our house but I just wanted to get other peoples opinion/views on it. So we are thinking of putting it in the our tv room and have the other side open out in the kitchen/diner/conservatory which is all open plan. I am thinking a stove would get WAY too hot in our tv room (which isn't huge). The only dilema is that we won't be able to put table and chairs in the kitchen side because the stove would be too hot, so we dont know what to do. Want the double sided because wit the cost of oil and the kitchen area is HUGE. any suggestions?
thanks in advance

Why don't you put in one that has a back boiler, that way the heat would go to your rads and heat your whole house and not just the two rooms. This is what we did and we have a large, kitchen/dinning/living area all in one. The stove is in the living area end and we love it when it's lit it heats 20 rads . I don't have any advice on double sided ones, personally I would't like it cause your bringing your tv room into your kitchen area as well. We put an open fire in the sitting room and the smoke from the stove just goes out the same chimney.

Thanks for your reply, so have you a fireplace in the living room and then the open plan section you have a stove? We will be linking it up to the back boiler even tho we were told it will only heat the downstairs rads which is fine. With the double sided stove tho we planned to have it fit into the wall with minimal space around it so it would be nice and snug so essentially there would be no space in the wall around it, well thats what the plan is .. but we're still in 2 minds whether to go for it or not and if it wud look ok?

Yep thats it one side, open fire and then then the stove on the other side. Also our stove does heat the rads that are upstairs. Like I said we bought one that does 20 rads,its a stratford stove and was expensive it cost 2,700 but was definately worth it. I really have no advise on double sided ones I don't actually know anyone who has one. Why don't you head into a company that supplies both and see what they think.

Hi,


We are putting in a free standing fireplace in the lounge come dining room. This will be double sided but the only way we can make this happen is by using either gas or electric. it will be made of glass and see through so more of a feature to be honest. On the kitchen, lving room side we have a 3 quarter length wall which breaks up the open plan section with a stove and back boiler and this will heat 11 rads, def the best option out there. Hope this helps!!! :-)
