Widnes customers are among our closest neighbours. The Heatwave showroom at Osnath Works in Warrington is around fifteen minutes away, just across the Mersey, and it is the most complete fireplace display you will find in the area.

Open seven days a week with free on site parking, Lythgoes Lane is a practical visit for anyone in Widnes who wants to see gas fires, electric fires, stoves and fireplace surrounds in person before making a decision.

What You Can See at the Showroom

The showroom at Osnath Works covers the full range. Gas fires, electric fires, wood burning stoves, multifuel stoves, media wall fires and fireplace surrounds in marble, stone, cast iron and wood are all here to see and compare together.

The fires are lit and running throughout opening hours. That makes a significant difference when you are trying to choose between products. Heat output, flame quality and how the fire sits in a room are things you cannot judge properly from a website.

Current display highlights:

• Gas inset fires and suites in contemporary and traditional styles
• Electric fires including media wall formats and freestanding stoves
• Wood burning stoves and multifuel stoves from Stovax, Gazco, Wildfire and others
• Marble, stone, cast iron and wooden fireplace surrounds
• Made to measure surrounds built at our factory at Osnath Works

Fires and Stoves for Widnes Homes

Widnes has a broad range of housing. Terraced and semi detached properties are widespread across Appleton, Farnworth and Upton, while larger homes are more common toward Hough Green and the Cheshire fringe. Properties vary from Victorian originals with working chimney breasts to post war and modern builds with no flue at all.

For homes with a chimney, gas fires, wood burning stoves and multifuel stoves are all viable options. A stove survey before installation confirms flue condition and checks that everything is suitable before any work begins.

Where there is no chimney, balanced flue gas fires are a strong choice. They vent directly through the external wall with no flue required. Electric fires and media wall fires are the other straightforward option for chimney free homes and need nothing beyond a power supply.

Widnes falls within Halton’s smoke control area. Any solid fuel appliance must be a DEFRA approved exempt appliance. All stoves we supply and recommend comply with this requirement and we will confirm the details for your address.

Made to Measure Surrounds

If you have a non standard chimney breast or an opening that does not match stock surround sizes, our Osnath Works factory designs and builds bespoke marble, stone and wooden surrounds to the exact measurements you need. Bring photos and dimensions to the showroom and we can advise during your visit.
