An inbuilt wood heater is a type of wood fireplace that’s built directly into a wall or an existing chimney cavity. Also known as an insert wood heater, it’s designed to deliver efficient, radiant heat while saving space and creating a sleek, integrated look. They’re ideal for both new builds and upgrading older open fireplaces.
The cost of installing an inbuilt wood heater can vary depending on the model, flue system, and whether it’s going into an existing fireplace or a zero clearance setup. While it’s more involved than a freestanding unit, the end result is worth it. For accurate advice and a tailored quote, have a chat with the team at Classic Fireplaces & Barbeques.
The right wood heater size depends on the area you want to heat, your home's insulation, and the layout. Smaller homes or single rooms may suit a compact model, while open-plan or rural properties often need a high-capacity inbuilt heater. Our experts can help you match the right unit to your space for efficient warmth without over- or under-heating.
Absolutely — a wood heater offers reliable, off-grid heating, reduces energy bills, and adds a natural, cosy feel to your home. Modern inbuilt wood fireplaces are efficient, low-emission, and provide lasting warmth through even the coldest Victorian winters. Plus, there’s nothing quite like the atmosphere of a real wood fire.
It’s not recommended. Installing an inbuilt wood heater involves strict safety requirements, proper flue design, and knowledge of building codes. Professional installation ensures your fireplace is safe, compliant, and running at its best. At Classic Fireplaces & Barbeques, we can connect you with trusted local installers to get the job done right.
