Don't be stupid

Our headline on the website is now "don't be stupid". Trust me we are not in the habit of insulting our customers or would be customers but come on what more information can we give to let you know we don't recommend open fires.

The facts are
1.More heat from your fuel.
2.Use less fuel.
3.Stop heat loss up the chimney when not in use.
4.No sparks jumping out on the floor as the door stays closed.
5.Cleaner to use taking ashs out in the tray provided.
6.Better for the environment as less smoke created and burns cleaner.

Yet a lot of people still persist in saying "oh I love the look of my open fire" fair enough but you still see the fire through the glass. Others come up with a multitude of excuses for not getting one and we will never be able to convince them otherwise. But for you dear reader will you still leave that gapeing 8 inch hole in your living room sucking the heat from your house or will you do something about it?

Bottom line don't take our word for it we have a picture wall in our showroom showing loads of pictures of fireplaces we have converted or brand new installations we have done from scratch like the one pictured below. There is proabably someone near you who can vouch for what these stoves do. Call in and we can show you.

Sligo Home and Garden Expo

Hi all,

Just a quick line to say we will be exhibiting at the Sligo Home and Garden expo this month. The show starts on Friday 12th march and runs until Sunday evening.
There will be several stoves and insert stoves on display and fireplaces along with the usual special offers on the day. I gave away sweets last year too so wondering what will I do this year. Any ideas?

Insert Stoves

Wow, sorry for not posting for so long didn't realise it had been as long as it has been. We had a bit of a snafu with our e mails that allowed anyone that had mailed us before to get through but if the e-mail address was not known then the message went straight to the spam bin, so if we were late getting back to you please accept my apologies.

The insert stoves mentioned in earlier posts seem to be taking off in a big way. For the first time ever people are asking for them by name so awareness is growing. The boiler versions of the same are also growing.

The main reasons for this are threefold, less heat loss from central heating up your chimney, more heat to the room and less fuel used. The biggest sign that I think these are going to be a big success is that we don't have to sell the idea to some people we just have to haggle on the final price and install and that's because their friend or neighbour has shown them their own stove and raved about it.

It's easy to hear a salesperson wax lyrical about how good these are but lets face it when you hear from someone using one for the past few months or years your going to be be more impressed and more inclined to investigate further which I am hoping is where we come in.

Our picture wall is growing all the time even though our fitter Ruairi forgets to take a picture every time he fits one so we should have more pictures on it but he is good at the stove fitting so what can I say. The testimonials are growing too and now we are offering half price fitting for the months of January and February

P.S those are not real E50 notes stuck to the wall above the pictures, just trying to show the money people can save.
