WHY HETAS?
HETAS
is the official body recognised by Government to approve biomass and solid fuel domestic heating appliances, fuels and services, including the registration of competent installers and servicing businesses.
Make sure you get the right advice and the right stove by using a HETAS registered engineer. If you want to install a new solid fuel or wood burning appliance in your home, it must meet Building Regulation standards and your local authority must be notified of the work.
Legal Requirements
There are only two routes to legally install a domestic solid fuel, wood or biomass burning appliance:
1. Use a HETAS registered installer who can self certify that the work he does complies with the relevant Building Regulations
or
2. You apply to your local authority for a building notice, and pay the appropriate fee (possibly up to £300).
Herts Woodburners are HETAS
registered (no. 6796
).
