With colder weather on the horizon, preparing your home for winter is becoming a priority for many households. One area that’s often overlooked is heater maintenance — yet it can make a significant difference to both comfort and efficiency throughout the season.
Wood heaters should ideally be serviced every 12 months to keep them running at their best. A routine check doesn’t have to be complicated, but it can help prevent avoidable problems and ensure your heater is ready when temperatures drop.
Simple checks can go a long way. Door seals should be inspected to confirm they are sealing properly, while the glass should be checked for any signs of wear. Internally, components such as fire bricks are also important to review, as cracks or damage may affect how the heater performs over time.
