Customer Feedback

"The product arrived quickly and I paid a local chimney sweep to install it. It took him about 20 minutes start-to-finish to mount it in place. Since it was fitted, my woodburner roars into life and burns much better. Windkat is simple, but very clever.”  Mark Sewell, Sussex

 

"As soon as I fitted the Windkat my downdraught problems were over. My stove and fire came to life and no matter how windy it has been my fire has been burning efficiently. I highly recommend the Windkat thank you for all your help." Steve Buckley, Cheshire.

 

"Just a quick note to thank you for a great piece of kit. My kitchen flooded with smoke on windy days for 2 years and I hated the fire. Your Windkat has without doubt changed all of that!  Thx again. Martyn"
