Greenheart Sawdust Burning Workshop Stoves

Our Greenheart workshop stoves are great and with six sizes to choose from, allowing you to find the right sawdust stove to suit your workshop. You can burn just about any wood waste in a Greenheart stove: wood scraps, shavings, as well as sawdust! Yep, that's right, these workshop stoves can burn sawdust and wood (most other sawdust burning stoves can only burn sawdust). To burn sawdust in your stove, you simply fill the stove up with sawdust and put a piece of lit newspaper on top. How simple is that! Get rid of workshop waste - wood, shavings and sawdust - and heat your workshop at the same time!

The links in the Workshop Stove Table below will take you to the page on our online workshop stove store which explain more about each type of Greenheart workshop stove. Below this table is a discussion on how you can choose the right size of stove for your workshop.

Choosing the right size of Greenheart workshop stove

You need to consider first what heat output you need to heat your workshop and then the physical size of the stove as this decides the size and volume of fuel that you can burn.

Choosing the right Greenheart stove in terms of heat output

You do not want a Greenheart workshop stove that only just meets your heating needs - you should size the heat output based on the coldest day possible in your workshop. That way you do not have to run the stove at full blast every day - this would reduce the life expectancy of the stove.

The approximate area heated is intended as a rough guide and is based on a building with insulation. Often a workshop has an uninsulated roof and sometimes uninsulated walls - if so you should choose a larger workshop stove.

Often a workshop has extractor fans and ventilators going for a lot of the day. This will also make the room much colder than normal - again you have to choose a bigger sized stove to match.

Choosing the right workshop stove in terms of physical size

The actual size of the Greeheart workshop stove determines what sizes of wood you can put into it. It can be annoying if you can't fit certain sizes of wood in your workshop stove - think about the sizes of wood or the volumes of sawdust that you are burning and size the stove appropriately. Also consider that a small firebox will need more frequent loading than a larger one.
