Boiler Stoves
Wood‑burning boiler_stoves remain a core part of our work at Gondwana. A boiler stove can heat an entire home, provide DHW, or link with other heat sources—including gas, biomass and heat_pumps—to form a combined system.
The boiler‑stove market has changed significantly over the past decade. EcoDesign standards, DEFRA regulations and a fair amount of public criticism have pushed manufacturers to improve their products. Many brands have stopped producing boiler stoves altogether, focusing instead on simpler room‑heating stoves. But a handful of specialist manufacturers have re‑engineered their combustion systems from the ground up. As a result, modern boiler stoves now meet—and often exceed—current emission and efficiency targets.
For customers who want a renewable, controllable and robust heat source that can integrate with other systems, a well‑designed boiler stove remains a reliable option.
Both wood‑burning and pellet‑based boiler_stoves are seeing a surge in popularity as more people look to reduce their reliance on rising electricity, gas and oil prices. Many customers also have access to low‑cost or free firewood, making a boiler stove a logical and economical heating option. Others simply prefer not to depend solely on national energy suppliers.
Modern boiler stoves benefit from looking and operating much like conventional wood stoves, and they now come in a wide range of sizes and styles. Although installation is more involved, the long‑term savings—for both the homeowner and the environment—are significant.
Boiler stoves can be linked with almost any heat source, including direct_electric, solar_thermal, solar_PV, gas, oil, biomass_boilers and heat_pumps. These systems are integrated through our thermal storage tanks and managed using our DTC controllers for maximum efficiency and convenience.
When choosing a central‑heating boiler stove, it’s important to understand the stove’s output and how much of that heat goes into the water versus the room. In most cases, you’ll want the majority of the heat transferred into the water, as this gives you full control over where the heat is distributed. At Gondwana, we assess your home or workplace and calculate the correct stove specification for your needs.
It is often possible to retrofit a boiler system into an existing wood or pellet stove—see the bottom of the page for more details.
At Gondwana, we don’t just install boiler stoves. We design and specify each system individually, carry out installation and commissioning, provide homeowner training, and hand over a fully operational system ready for use.

In addition to supplying parts, we offer full boiler_stove_consultancy. This includes designing and specifying complete wood‑boiler heating systems, with custom drawings to ensure your project is planned correctly and installed without issues.
We also provide technical_training and support—both remote and on‑site—for homeowners and trade professionals who want to understand, operate or install boiler‑stove systems confidently.
Thermal Stores and Link up of multiple heat sources
A Thermal store is a tank either made of copper, stainless steel , mild steel etc, and is what it says on the tin a thermal store (heat store) the tank stores heat for when you need it.
Walltherm wood fired Boiler stoves
As well as achieving record-breaking efficiency, and a low level of emissions, the Walltherm’s double windows provide a visual treat like no other stove.
