When investing in a new stove or fireplace, choosing a trusted retailer is just as important as picking the perfect appliance. A high-quality fire that’s fitted correctly will bring warmth, efficiency, and peace of mind for years to come, but only when supplied and installed by certified professionals.

At Manor House Fireplaces & Stoves, we’re proud to be both HETAS approved and an SIA Approved Retailer. These accreditations reflect our commitment to safety, sustainability, and exceptional customer care.

In this guide, we explain what these certifications mean, why they matter, and how they ensure your new stove or fireplace is compliant, efficient, and built to last.

What Does It Mean to Be HETAS Approved?

HETAS stands for Heating Equipment Testing and Approvals Scheme. It’s the UK’s official body recognised for approving solid fuel, wood, and biomass appliances, as well as the installers and retailers who supply them.

As a HETAS Approved Retailer, Manor House Fireplaces & Stoves meets strict industry standards in the advice, products, and services we provide. This means our customers can expect:

• Expert guidance – our team is fully trained in the latest regulations and product standards for wood, multi-fuel, and biomass heating.
• Proven product quality – all stoves we supply have been independently tested and approved to meet HETAS safety and efficiency standards.
• Compliance assurance – HETAS approval confirms that our installations and advice meet UK building and environmental regulations.

When you choose a HETAS approved retailer like us, you’re working with professionals who are trusted to help you make safe, efficient, and environmentally responsible choices.

What Is the SIA Approved Retailer Scheme?

The Stove Industry Alliance (SIA) is the leading organisation representing manufacturers, suppliers, and retailers of wood-burning and multi-fuel stoves in the UK.

An SIA Approved Retailer goes beyond simply selling stoves. It’s a recognition of our expertise, integrity, and commitment to cleaner, more efficient heating.

To achieve this status, retailers must:

• Provide clear, responsible guidance on stove selection, fuel types, and emissions.
• Promote and sell Ecodesign compliant appliances that meet the highest efficiency and air quality standards.
• Maintain up-to-date product knowledge through SIA training and support.

For you as a homeowner, this means every stove you buy from Manor House Fireplaces & Stoves is designed to deliver warmth while supporting lower emissions and a more sustainable home environment.

Why HETAS and SIA Accreditations Matter

In today’s market, not every retailer offers the same level of quality or compliance. Choosing a company that holds both HETAS and SIA approval ensures you’re working with a team that takes safety, performance, and environmental standards seriously.

Here’s what that means for you:

• Safety and compliance – you can be confident that every product and installation meets national safety and building standards.
• Efficiency and performance – approved appliances are designed to burn cleaner and heat your home more effectively.
• Reduced environmental impact – Ecodesign ready stoves help cut emissions and improve air quality.
• Peace of mind – buying from approved professionals protects your investment, warranty, and home insurance coverage.
