DRU Multifuel and Wood Burning Stoves

Fires2u are proud to introduce the complete range of DRU Multifuel and Wood Burning Stove range on there website and can deliver to mainland England, Wales or Scotland!

DRU multi-fuel stoves can burn wooden logs, coal, coke, brown coal or anthracite. They are built using the strongest Norwegian cast iron and are designed to withstand Scandinavian-style winters, when the stove burns all day, every day

Safe for people and the environment

DRU stoves meet the most stringent European quality and safety standards. They also have an efficiency rating of over 75%, with most fumes being burnt thanks to the stoves' unique airflow system

Elegant and smart

DRU stoves are made in the traditional style, with a large glass window that gives excellent views of the fire. This is enhanced by an 'air curtain' that helps to keep the glass clean. The chimney can be connected to the top or back of the stove, whilst a heat shield at the rear protects the wall from discolouration

Unique burning process

DRU stoves have a unique triple burning system -

1. Primary air is pulled in from beneath the fire plate to start the combustion process
2. Secondary air from the back is fed through lower chambers to the front. Part of this is used to air-wash the glass
3. Tertiary air is injected through small holes at the back of the chamber. This, in combination with the secondary air, ensures complete pulverisation of the fuel and the burning of fumes for maximum efficiency

User friendly and safe

DRU stoves are easy to use and maintain. They have a convenient side loading door for the fuel. The ash pan is easily removed through its own door. A ‘cold-grip’ handle is provided to open all of the doors, and is kept in a cool place under the stove.

Many choices of fuel

DRU stoves can accommodate 20” or 23” logs and other solid fuels, such as coal, brown coal, coke and anthracite. A funnel is provided to feed coal to the combustion chamber. It burns slowly and gradually and can be controlled with an adjustable thermostat.

Colour options

At fires2u we sell DRU stoves in the standard colour: anthracite, however for additional cost they are also available in the following enamelled colours: Ivory, Charcoal or Majolica Brown. Enamelled surfaces are robust and easy to clean.

DRU multi-fuel stoves create a warm and friendly focal point that will burn brighter and longer at the heart of your home, so what are you waiting for your pefect stove is a just a click away at fires2u.

Please note read the below carefully and fully before you carry out any installation to see which points relate to your Fireplace suite –

As with any installation preparation is vital. Always check what type of flue your home has an effective way of doing this is to call out a local Chimney Sweep who can check your flue for you. It can then be cleaned by them, and they can recommend if any remedial work needs to be done. Always ask for a certificate upon completion of any work they do. When this has been completed you can purchase an Gas Fireplace with more confidence.

Please note as with any Gas appliance it must be installed and commissioned by a Gas Safe engineer and registered with Gas Safe

Upon delivery of your Gas fire and Fireplace check all parts and lay them out on a flat dry service in order of installation.

Always prepare the chamber in your chimney breast, or ensure an existing chamber is sufficiently big enough to accept the appliance you are fitting (this is specially advised in the case of precast flues which have very little option of alteration due to there construction).

When working out the dimensions of the chamber always remember to allow for the thickness of your hearth when deciding on the height of the chamber. Once the chamber is prepared ensure you have a Gas supply located within the chamber to prevent any unsightly gas pipes being seen.

Lay down hearth and check it is level and well supported underneath.

Check rebate in surround and ensure back panel is set to suit this rebate,( these can vary so always check before fixing) the back panel should be seeled on outside edge and inner edge were the cut out is located this is to prevent any spillage from the fire occurring.

You can now assemble your Surround.

Most Surrounds are provided with fixing brackets attach these at the points indicated, with the screws supplied.

When setting legs and fixing to wall always check measurements i.e. the outside leg measurement corresponds with the breast plate and header of surround when presented. This may require two people depending on the style of surround chosen.

If you have carried out this preparation work yourself you can now organise your Gas Safe fitter to carry out the installation of your Gas Fire.

Always keep a record of your Fitters registration number, the Serial number (located on the gas appliance itself) and Model number of the appliance as most manufacturers will require these details if a call out is requested under the Manufacturers Guarantee.

Cast Iron Fireplaces can either come in Black, Highlighted or Full Polished finish and a chose of tiled insets from beautiful orientate flowers too traditional brick bond style tiles.

As with all Fireplaces there are aftercare methods that have to be carried out by owners to make sure they get the very best out of the Cast Iron Fireplace. All Cast Iron Fireplaces or cast inserts are delivered direct to our customers from the manufacture with a protective oil-based coating, which should be cleaned off during installation. Ensure that the room in which the Cast Iron fireplace is being installed is thoroughly dry, for example recently plastered walls cause high levels of moisture in the atmosphere and, as a result, rust is likely to occur to cast iron placed in this room. Under no circumstances should a water based cleaner or polish be used to clean a Cast Iron Fireplaces or cast insert. It is recommended that spray-type oil is applied from time to time in order to avoid surface rust appearing.

The ceramic fuel bed that comes with the gas fire option with Cast Iron fireplaces, must not touch any polished surface of the Cast Iron Fireplace or Cast Insert as this will cause thermal discolouration. Also any ash caused by either the gas fires or solid fuel fires must be cleaned away regularly as a build up beneath the fire will cause the fire grate to burn out quickly. It is however important to note that the grate which is placed within the Cast Iron fireplace is a consumable part of your fire and will need replacing from time to time, depending on the frequency and burning temperature of your fire. High temperature paint is used on all Gallery Cast Iron Fireplaces and Cast Inserts where the section of the gas fire or solid fuel fire will burn within the fireplace, the paint over time may eventually burn off. High temperature paint can be bought to re-coat your Cast Iron Fireplace if this occurs. Such Gallery Fireplace paint or fire grates can be bought also at fires2u.com we just request proof of original purchase and we can then provide you with a price on these products.
