Stove Installation in Euxton
HETAS registered stove installation in Euxton — the older village core and the chimney-less new homes of Buckshaw Village.
Two very different halves of Euxton
Euxton, west of Chorley, has an old village core around Wigan Road and the parish church — period cottages and terraces with chimneys — and then Buckshaw Village, a large modern development built on the former Royal Ordnance site, where almost nothing has a chimney at all.
Buckshaw means twin-wall
For the Buckshaw and Runshaw-era houses, adding a stove means an insulated twin-wall flue system, run internally through the ceilings and roof or up an external wall, sized and routed to meet HETAS and Building Regulations. In the older village property it is the usual reopen-and-line job.

- Twin-wall flue systems for Buckshaw Village and other modern homes.
- Reopening and lining chimneys in the older village property.

Frequently asked
Is Euxton a Smoke Control Area?
The built-up parts of Euxton are within Chorley's Smoke Control Area, so a DEFRA-exempt stove and authorised fuel are needed. We fit exempt appliances as standard and check your address at survey.
Do I need a HETAS registered installer to fit a wood burning stove?
You don't have to, but it is the simplest way to stay legal. A HETAS registered installer self-certifies that the stove meets Building Regulations (Approved Document J) and notifies your local council. The alternative is paying Building Control to inspect the work. Tru-Heating is HETAS registered, so every installation is self-certified with an official certificate.
Can you install a wood burning stove without an existing chimney?
Yes. Where there is no masonry chimney we fit an insulated twin-wall flue system that runs internally or up an external wall, to HETAS and Building Regulations standards.
How long does a stove installation take?
A straightforward install into an existing chimney is usually one day. A new twin-wall flue system, or work that involves opening up a fireplace or building a hearth, typically takes two to three days.
