Is it too early to buy a wood stove for winter now?

Question

I am always making preparation for the cold winter in advance, so i want to buy a wood stove for winter now, but i am afraid that i will buy a one which was not sold out last year and miss those popular and beautiful stoves.
Do you have some good ideas or know some shops have been selling stoves with new styles instead of old ones?
Thank you in advance!

Answer 1

It is a good idea to make preparation in advance, if your city is enough cold, you can buy a wood stove now. You mentioned that you will miss the popular and beautiful stoves if you buy one now, it is really a question, but i want to recommend you a website named Astove, it offers many kinds of stoves, it has been selling new stoves. Maybe you can find the best one for your house.

Good luck!

Not at all, it's much better to prepare for winter now than have one fitted when it's -5°C outside.



I disagree with people putting their stoves on sale when it's really cold - if anything, they'll boost the prices when it's cold because everyone will be looking for one. The earlier you buy the better, stoves are always cheapest throughout summer. Also, forgot to say that it's much cheaper to hire someone to fit it before the winter season as they're usually extremely busy over winter with other heating/installation jobs.



WoodburnerWorld is where we bought ours from a year ago, couldn't fault their service at all (left a link in source). They have a good selection of both newer and older styles of stove, so you'll probably be able to find something pretty decent in there!

Answer 3

It's always a good idea to shop for a wood stove early. Look online for wood stoves & if the style/price is to your liking, then order it. Perhaps many stores in your area, may still have a beautiful wood stove you're looking for. I don't know where you live, but Jotul (pronounced: yodel) is the way to go. Buying a stove now, may be cheaper, than if you wait later. With supply & demand, the prices may be really high when it gets close to winter/snow/frigid temps. Now, is also the time to get ones' furnace inspected & stock up on furnace filters. The filter needs to be changed once a month, without fail.

You can't just buy a stove, you need a chimney sleeve fitted too

As the Rodney said, the old styles are the best, especially traditional ones, they're classic forever.
