Why choose a wood stove?
The wood stove is not just about its rustic charm: it offers numerous functional and economic advantages.
A natural and comfortable heat
Wood emits a pleasant radiant heat, perceived as softer and more uniform than that of radiators or convectors. The wood stove creates a central heat point that quickly warms the atmosphere while contributing to the room's aesthetics.
A renewable and economical energy
Wood is the cheapest fuel on the market, especially when it is local and sourced from sustainable channels. The efficiency of modern log stoves exceeds 75 to 85%, allowing you to heat efficiently at a lower cost, while reducing your carbon footprint.
An autonomous and reliable solution
The wood stove does not depend on electricity or gas. In case of a power outage or boiler issue, it continues to operate, providing valuable energy independence.
The different types of wood stoves
The choice of model depends on your heating habits, the layout of your home, and your aesthetic expectations.
What fuel to use?
To ensure the performance of your stove, the choice of wood is essential:
- Split logs 25 or 33 cm
- Hardwood species (oak, beech, ash...)
- Moisture < 20 % for good efficiency
- Storage in a sheltered, dry place
Well-selected wood guarantees complete combustion, good autonomy, less soot, and more heat.
What is the price of a wood stove installed in Belgium?
The price depends on the type of stove, power, options (double combustion, accumulation), necessary flue pipe, and any adaptations needed for the structure.
Factors to consider
- Type of stove (classic, mass, hydro...)
- Power (kW) based on the area to be heated
- Existing or new flue pipe
- Protective casing, wall or floor plates
- Ventilation work, external air intake
- Accessories (fireplace grate, ashtray, damper...)

FAQ – Wood stove and energy renovation in Belgium
Is a wood stove compatible with an energy renovation project?
Yes. A wood stove is an ecological and efficient heating solution, perfectly integrable into an energy renovation. Provided it is EcoDesign 2022 certified, it offers a high efficiency (≥ 75 %), uses renewable energy, and can replace an auxiliary heating system powered by oil or electricity. It is particularly suitable for well-insulated homes or comprehensive renovations aimed at better thermal efficiency.
Can you benefit from a grant for the installation of a wood stove?

Our teams assist you in the preparation of the complete administrative file.
Can a wood stove heat an entire house?
Yes, in some cases. A well-sized wood stove can heat a well-insulated or small house, especially with storage or double combustion models. For a wider distribution of heat, one can consider a boiler stove (hydro), connected to the central heating circuit.
What is the difference between a wood stove and a pellet stove?
- The wood stove operates with logs, offers a more natural warmth, but requires manual feeding.
- The pellet stove is automated, programmable, and more convenient for daily use.
The wood stove is ideal for those seeking authenticity, energy independence, and low fuel costs.
What type of wood should be used for good efficiency?
It is recommended to use hardwoods such as oak, beech, or ash, well dry (moisture content ≤ 20 %). This ensures complete combustion, more intense heat, less residue in the flue, and better autonomy.
