They were fabulous and the fire itself is fantastic
“We had an original tiled fireplace in good condition that we wanted to keep, but upgrade the firebox to an in-built, ultra-low emissions, insert fire manufactured by Metro Fires. Timaru Heating Centre went out of their way to source one and install it for us. They were fabulous and the fire itself is fantastic. It belts out 15 kilowatts of heat and has a fan which distributes it throughout the house. Really happy.”
Karen Holbrook - Waimataitai, Timaru
Re-installation saves the need for a new purchase
“We had an insert fireplace that wasn’t running properly due to a bad original install. I thought I’d have to buy a whole new woodburner. But Timaru Heating Centre said that wasn’t necessary and they reinstalled the existing one properly and it goes much better now.”
James and Joane Wright - Gleniti, Timaru
Good guys that make it happen
“Good service and a seamless install when we had our new low emission wood burner put in. They even engineered a wee flashing for our odd shape ceiling and it fitted beautifully.
The wood fire itself is certainly putting out more heat. It warms the whole house now and we don't have to keep doors closed to keep the heat in.
Really thorough. Good guys that make it happen.”
Clayton Holland - Highfield, Timaru
It was a brilliant outcome and we appreciated it
‘’We were having trouble with our wood burner. Eventually, the door wouldn’t even open so we went to Timaru Heating Centre for help. It turned out we weren’t covered by any warranty because the man who had sold us the house had installed the firebox. We thought there was no hope as we couldn’t afford to replace it.
Colleen went above and beyond to find a solution. It was re-installed to manufacturer's specs and it's been trouble-free since. I was so pleased they had saved us such a headache, I dropped off flowers and chocolates. It was a brilliant outcome and we appreciated it.”
Lorraine Corcoran - Marchwiel, Timaru
Great. Very professional. Know their stuff.
“Without a doubt, they know their stuff. They fitted our new wood burner and they were great, very professional. Also competitive in their pricing. The chap who installed ours had installed 1600 of them, so he knew exactly what he was doing.”
Graham Evans - Normanby, Timaru
Knowledgeable and helpful
“We needed to replace our old woodburner to comply with new Environment Canterbury clean air rules. Timaru Heating Centre were knowledgeable and helpful. We got a Masport Waimakariri freestanding wood fire and it's been going great. It's easier to light and throws out the heat more efficiently.”
Hanneka Davis - Highfield, Timaru
They know a lot about fireplaces
“They were really good to deal with when we had our new wood burner installed. They came through, they were tidy and I’m happy with the job they did. They know a lot about fireplaces and they definitely recommended the right one for us.”
Simon and Lisa Crotty - Gleniti, Timaru
Good prices and really good workmanship
“Good knowledge, good prices and really good workmanship. We had our old gas fireplace replaced with a new wood burner and it's been working well.”
Bart Rennick - Highfield, Timaru
Couldn't ask for a better installation
“Very good. We needed our new wood fire just before lockdown. We approached Timaru Heating Centre and they had it in within a day. I was really happy with the response and finished product. I couldn't have asked for a better install.”
Stuart Humphrey - Geraldine
10 out of 10 for being helpful and proactive
“We’re in the process of getting a new woodburner. Currently awaiting local body consent pre-install. But I can say I'd give 10 out of 10 to Colleen for being helpful and proactive in moving it along.”
Ayline Forrest- Otipua, Timaru
Genuine guys and competitive prices
“Fantastic. I couldn’t have asked for better service. We put in an insert wood fire where an old open fire used to be and wanted to keep the fireplace surrounds. Timaru Heating Centre had lots of good ideas and excellent workmanship. They even fixed our faulty hot water overflow pipe while they were on the roof adjusting the chimney. Genuine guys and competitive prices.”
Lisa Wright - Watlington, Timaru
Super helpful Colleen
“We needed a new component for our woodburner. Colleen was so super helpful. She went out of her way to source the part and get it to us and recommended someone to install it.”

No hassles. Good value
“Really good job they did in installing a new free-standing wood fire for us. No hassles whatsoever. We’d had them in before, so knew their work was solid. Good value too.”
Jim Thompson - Glenwood, Timaru
No problems. Really happy
“We do electrical contracting work for Timaru Heating Centre. Wiring up their gas water heating systems mostly and the odd fireplace. They’re really friendly and present no problems for us, so yeah we’re really happy.”
Ryan Henry - Plunket Electrical
Really good wood fire installation
“We’ve had them in to replace our log burner with a new, more efficient freestanding wood fire. The installer did a really good job.”
Phil Fitzgerald - Norfolk
Good name for knowing their fires
“They have a good name for knowing their fires so when it came time for us to replace our log burner we had them quote for us. They put in a new Masport Rakaia freestanding wood fire. It’s going good.”

I was impressed
“Our old wood burner was 30 years old and totally inefficient. We had Timaru Heating Centre out to quote on a new wood burner. I was impressed with the guy who came out.”
David & Sue Fisher - Geraldine
Very happy with the job they did
“They installed our new woodburner. Very happy with the job they did. All in a day and well explained to me. And tidy too.”
