Comprehensive Wood Heater Service Across Melbourne

At Melbourne Woodheaters, our experienced technicians specialise in servicing all makes and models of wood heaters, ensuring they operate safely and efficiently. Our full-service approach includes:

1. Wood Heater Inspection & Safety Checks

Before a Wood Heater Service, we conduct a thorough inspection to assess the condition of your heater. Our safety checks cover:
✔ Chimney and flue integrity
✔ Door seals and glass condition
✔ Firebox wear and tear
✔ Airflow and ventilation
✔ Carbon monoxide risk assessment

2. Chimney & Flue Cleaning

Over time, soot and creosote build up in your flue, increasing the risk of chimney fires. Our team provides professional chimney sweeping to remove dangerous deposits and ensure smooth airflow.

3. Firebox Maintenance & Repairs

Cracks in the firebox can reduce efficiency and pose a safety hazard. We check for signs of damage and provide repairs or replacements where needed.

4. Door Seals & Glass Replacement

Worn-out door seals allow heat and smoke to escape, reducing efficiency. We replace door seals and inspect or replace cracked or fogged-up ceramic glass panels for improved safety and performance.

5. Fan & Airflow Checks

For wood heaters with built-in fans, we ensure they are functioning correctly, keeping warm air circulating effectively throughout your home.

6. Flue Extensions & Cap Installations

If your flue needs extending for better draft or protection from the elements, we offer flue extensions and cap installations to optimise performance.
