Why summer is the best time to buy A new stove
Those clear blue skies and soaring summer temperatures doesn't exactly put buying a new stove to the top of your list! However, this is a perfect time to get ahead and start your search before summer quickly evaporates and Autumn starts knocking on the door.
Why should i buy now?
When it comes to buying a new stove, researching, purchasing, planning and installing are important stages that can take longer than expected. The more time you have, the better when it comes to choosing the right stove for your home.
There are important variables to consider such as your room size, interior style, types of stove designs and heat output to name a few. With quite a lot of information to digest, the summer is a perfect opportunity to start your stove journey so you don’t feel rushed and also ensures your stove is installed before peak season and Autumn settles in.
What do i need to consider?
Whether you’re doing a room renovation or have an existing fireplace that requires the open fire to be replaced, or maybe you want to upgrade your stove to a new eco model, you will want to take time to discuss your options and get the right technical advice on what models will best suit your needs.
With this in mind, there is a lot more flexibility to organise your site survey, access any outside trades if any additional work is required, order all your materials and schedule your date with the stove installer. With the quieter months and warmer weather, it gives you more time to purchase, deliver, install your stove and have everything up and running before peak season.
Also, summer provides a greater availability of models, and come visit us at the showroom to discuss new stock and trends for Autumn/Winter. Popular stove models can take time to arrive with stock levels depleting quite quickly come the winter season, so ordering now ensures you won’t be left disappointed.
What Preparations are needed ?
If you do have a chimney, it is essential that this is swept in time before your stove is installed. Like stove installers, chimney sweeps get booked up quite quickly so summer is ideal to organise a visit to your home and to have everything prepared for your stove installation. Also, depending on your space requirements, if trades do need to come on board, it gives time to plan and have work completed before any installation work begins.
Begin your stove journey!
We recommend starting now and not leave it until you feel that cold nip in the air. Take advantage of these summer months and have your stove delivered and installed into your home before the rush starts.
You’ll be ready to curl up in front of that roaring fire come Winter!
