Use the handy Valiant Moisture meter to ensure you get the best burn from your fuel. Our newest model not only has a backlight screen to illuminate the reading but the built-in colour change technology indicates the moisture level of the firewood. It’s an essential tool for any fireplace owner!
How does the moisture meter work?
Fuel quality is the single most important aspect of making a successful fire. To burn effectively the moisture content of firewood needs to be less than 20%, whether it’s being used in an open fire or a stove. Freshly felled timber can have a moisture content of between 30% and 60%, which when burnt can cause dangerous creosote build-up in chimneys.
Using a moisture meter is a great way to check whether your wood will give you a safe and efficient burn, or if it needs further seasoning. The screen will glow green if your fuel contains less than 20% moisture, indicating that it’s ready to go.
The new Valiant moisture meter can also be used in timber, floors and buildings in order to detect and measure moisture content.

It is important to us and the brands that we work with that your new stove, barbecue or accessory will not only meet your requirements perfectly but that it is also installed correctly to comply with building regulations and or the manufacturer's guidance. Many of our products are not normally available through other online stores because of the manufacturer’s insistence on this level of customer care. We hope that you will therefore appreciate that for these reasons this is not your usual click-to-buy website.
We won’t take your money upfront
Instead when you add your items to the cart and click check out this sends us a list of the products you're interested in. We will not take any payment at this stage but will come back to you, either through our quotation system or personal e-mail. We can also advise you of expected lead times and should these prove unsatisfactory we can offer alternative products for you to consider. Unlike other websites we won’t sit on your money or leave you waiting for a refund. In the case of installation packages we can also cast our eye over your shopping list to ensure any missing components, such as adaptors for example, are brought to your attention and included in our quotation.
Alternatively visit our showrooms
If you can, we would encourage you to visit either our County Down or Cheshire showrooms (subject to Covid restrictions) to see and experience our products at first hand and where we will be able to discuss your precise needs in detail. If you wish to proceed we can then arrange a site survey. For your peace of mind, as authorised dealers for all of the brands we sell, your new purchase will qualify for the full manufacturer's extended warranty coverage and back-up as well as our comprehensive dealer support.
