FAQ

Why should I choose a steel stove?

Steel is stronger and more durable than cast iron, as the seams are welded together, whereas cast iron stoves are bolted and sealed with fire cement or rope. In time these bolts corrode and the stove is not airtight and becomes unusable.

Cast iron is also very brittle and may crack if heated up too quickly. Town and Country steel stoves will expand and contract through operation, and should last 50 years or more.

Where can I purchase new door rope for my Town & Country Stove?

The rope used in all our stove doors is bespoke to our models. We do recommend the correct rope is used to maintain a good seal. The door handle is threaded so this can be adjusted as the rope wears with time to maintain a good seal. Rope kits can be purchased when required from the Approved Dealer where the stove was originally purchased.

If a fire-brick cracks do I need to replace it?
If a fire-brick cracks it is no detriment to the operation of the stove. Some of our larger models of stove have the rear brick in 2 pieces when manufactured. Over time if the brick disintegrates it will need replacing, bricks are a consumable item and are there to protect the body of the stove. When you require a new brick or any spares for your Town and Country Stove these can be purchased from the Approved Dealer where the stove was originally purchased.
