Tom Brennan and his Cara Glass Pellet Insert

Tom Brennan from Carlow had the Stanley Cara Glass Pellet Insert installed over 4 months ago. "Previously I had an electric fire which wasn’t enough heat for living room. I heard good things about the Cara Glass pellet Insert so it was an obvious choice for me. I purchased it in Connolly’s Bagnelstown and had a chimney built for it. “

Why did Tom choose a Stanley stove? "They are the best on the market. I install stoves for a living and am very confident installing Stanley stoves. I have a Stanley Brandon oil cooker for the last 4 years and its great. I love the brand. Plus, I wanted something stronger than an electric fire. ”

What does Tom love about the Cara Glass Pellet Insert? "It’s very neat and tidy and economical to run. It’s also very clean and easy to control. An older couple I know recently swapped a solid fuel stove for the Cara Glass Pellet and they love it. They were struggling to fuel and light the solid fuel stove with their bad backs.”

So have you noticed a change in your home heating bills? "I won’t need the central heating on in the living room or the kitchen that’s for sure. I used it a couple of nights and couldn’t stay in the room with the heat. Great that the Cara pellet has the same output as the Cara solid fuel and even better you can turn it off and on instantly which you can’t do with a solid fuel stove. This will also help with cost savings in that I can control when I have it on and off. ”

When prompted about his favourite moment. "Just looking forward to the winter and lighting it.”
