As the summer sun shines, it may not seem like the time to think about winter heating, but planning ahead in the warmer months is one of the smartest decisions homeowners can make. Heatex, based in Portarlington, Co. Offaly, stock an extensive range of wood and multifuel stoves, pellet stoves, chimney systems, high-temperature consumables, and genuine spare parts—everything needed to ensure homes across Ireland stay warm, safe, and efficient throughout winter.
Why Summer is the Best Time to Prepare for Winter Heating
Avoid the Winter Backlog
By late autumn, demand for heating systems soars. Ordering and installing during summer means shorter waiting times, better product availability, and easier access to professional installers. Heatex encourage customers to get ahead of the crowd by acting before the cold sets in.
Access Seasonal Savings
Many suppliers, including Heatex, offer exclusive off-season discounts on stoves, flue kits, and accessories. Planning ahead can lead to significant cost savings on both products and installation.
Favourable Weather for Installations
Warmer, drier months are ideal for carrying out installations, particularly when external work such as chimney or roof access is required. Summer ensures fewer delays, improved safety, and better workmanship overall.
Extensive Range of Wood & Multifuel Stoves
Heatex stock a broad range of wood-burning and multifuel stoves, with something to suit every taste, home style, and heating requirement. Their selection includes models ideal for modern homes, cottages, renovations, and more.
Eco Design Ready for a Cleaner Future
All modern stoves supplied by Heatex meet the latest Eco Design standards, offering high efficiency, low particulate emissions, and compliance with evolving environmental regulations.
Classic and Modern Aesthetic Options
From elegant cast iron stoves with traditional character to contemporary steel models with clean lines, Heatex stock units that are as attractive as they are functional. Customers can select from a variety of finishes, colours, and styles.
Freestanding and Inset Stove Solutions
Heatex provide both freestanding stoves for spacious layouts and inset stoves designed to slot seamlessly into existing fireplaces, offering an efficient and stylish upgrade without major renovation work.
Pellet Stoves – Efficient, Automated Heating
For households seeking convenience and performance, Heatex’s range of pellet stoves provides modern, programmable, and highly efficient heating options. These stoves are designed for easy use and are a particularly good fit for zoned heating solutions.
Smart Controls and Timer Features
Most pellet stoves from Heatex come equipped with digital interfaces, thermostats, and scheduling options, allowing users to manage their heating remotely and efficiently.
Low Emissions and High Output
Pellet stoves use renewable compressed wood pellets, offering clean combustion and excellent heat output. They’re a sustainable choice for eco-conscious homes seeking cost-effective warmth.
Perfect for Room-Specific Heating
Pellet stoves are ideal for heating individual zones within the home. This allows families to keep frequently used areas warm without running a full central heating system, significantly reducing energy costs.
Chimney Systems and Flue Products for Safety and Efficiency
Heatex also stock a full suite of chimney and flue products required to support safe and effective stove use. From twin wall flue kits to chimney cowls, their range covers both new installations and chimney refurbishments.
Twin Wall Insulated Systems
For homes without a traditional chimney, twin wall flue systems offer an excellent alternative. These high-grade stainless-steel systems can be installed both inside and outside the property, with full compliance to safety standards.
Flexible and Rigid Flue Liners
Heatex provide flexible flue liners for existing chimneys and rigid systems for new builds. These liners are built for durability and to improve flue draw and performance.
Chimney Cowls and Draught Reducers
To protect chimney systems from downdraughts, weather ingress, and wildlife, Heatex supply a range of anti-downdraught cowls, rain caps, and bird guards, suitable for a variety of fuel types and chimney sizes.
High-Temperature Consumables for Installation and Maintenance
Successful stove installations and ongoing maintenance rely on the correct accessories and consumables. Heatex offer a wide array of high-temperature products, including:
• Heat-resistant silicone sealants
• Fire cement for sealing joints and gaps
• Stove rope and adhesive kits for replacing worn door seals
These products ensure the system remains airtight, safe, and fuel-efficient throughout its service life.
