The individual tiled stove

Home is where the heart is – and where the fireplace burns. Building a new house, renovating, moving – finding a home. Together with your husband, wife and children. For many people, a fireplace is an essential part of planning their dream home. It is the dream of so many around the world – tailored to our lifestyle and, in a way, even to our personality and character. Whether it is the long-lasting warmth of a tiled stove, the pure atmosphere of a fireplace, or the primal feeling of an open fire – wood fire is part of true comfort. It creates a place of calm and relaxation within the home. An individually crafted fireplace is designed to fulfill exactly this dream.

A wood fire is and remains a wood fire

Simply put: no. There are many different types of fireplaces and stoves. Which one is right depends mainly on these factors:

  • Heat demand and characteristics of the living space
  • Personal taste and interior style
  • Daily routine and habits of the user
  • Budget

Pre-fabricated fireplace systems, such as standard wood stoves, cannot take these four factors into account because of their industrial production.

Heat demand of a living space

Every house, apartment and room has a different heat requirement. A well-trained stove builder can calculate the exact heat demand of a living space based on key measurements and a personal inspection. This is extremely important: without these precise calculations, the wood burner would either still feel cold despite the fire or end up sitting in a small sauna.

Personal taste and interior style

Once a fireplace or stove is built into the home, it cannot easily be removed. There is nothing worse than having a fireplace or stove that does not fit your personal taste.

This is exactly where skilled craftsmanship makes a difference: not only technically experienced but also design-oriented stove builders can fulfill almost any design wish. The strength of custom-built tiled stoves and fireplaces lies in their versatility. For people with busy schedules, systems that provide quick warmth and visible fire, such as heating fireplaces, are particularly suitable.

Fireplaces and storage stoves in everyday life

Of course, apart from gas fireplaces, the lighting process is always the same. However, that does not mean that every system functions in the same way.

If you spend a lot of time at home and want to heat your living space with wood fire heat, storage stoves are the ideal choice thanks to their long-lasting warmth.

The list of possibilities could go on and on – but you can already see that the differences are significant. A skilled stove builder takes all of these aspects into account during planning.

Money always matters

The budget is always an important factor, especially when it comes to custom-made products. After an in-depth initial consultation, the stove builder knows exactly the framework in which the project should take place and how to meet the customer’s wishes and needs within it. One thing should never be forgotten: durable quality always comes at a price.

Conclusion

A tiled stove is not only a source of warmth but also a design element that significantly contributes to the comfort and coziness of a home. Several different factors should be considered to find the stove that best suits your needs.
