Hi Folks,
I've been really keen on the idea of a masonry stove for a really long time and finally have the chance to possibly install one in our new home. We will be converting a disused chapel which is essentially a large, stone construction, box. Ideally I'd like to be able to heat the whole space with one central masonry stove - one hot fire each evening and then slow release of warmth from the brickwork for the next 12 hours or so.
I'd love to hear from people who have a setup like this; it is rather unconventional here in the UK so very hard to get first hand feedback on how well they work. Do they deliver the goods?
