Bubble boat stoves and cookers are synonymous with robust reliability and ingenious space-saving design, making them a staple in the UK marine industry. Whether you require the clean-burning efficiency of a vaporising diesel stove or the traditional warmth of a multi-fuel burner, the Bubble range is specifically engineered to withstand the rigours of life on the water. With a focus on high-quality construction and versatile installation options—including corner models and integrated back boilers—Bubble provides a complete heating and cooking solution for narrowboats, widebeams, and yachts.

Bubble Boat Stoves: Innovative Heating for Marine Life

The Bubble range is uniquely diverse, offering both diesel boat stoves and solid fuel stoves that are tailored for compact living. Known for their distinctive “Pod” designs, such as the B1 Half Pod and Pie Pod, these stoves provide high heat output with a minimal footprint. For boaters looking to maximise their galley efficiency, the range also includes the Bubble Boat Cooker, available in both diesel and solid fuel variants, allowing you to heat your vessel and prepare meals simultaneously.

Advanced Back Boilers and Central Heating

One of the most significant advantages of choosing a Bubble appliance is the ability to integrate a high-output back boiler. Many models can be configured to power radiators or heat a calorifier, providing domestic hot water and a full central heating system from a single heat source. This makes Bubble an ideal choice for liveaboards who require consistent, multi-room warmth throughout the winter months. To ensure your system remains compliant with safety standards, we recommend following the Boat Safety Scheme (BSS) advice for solid fuel stoves and pairing your stove with a compliant flue kit.”.

Bespoke Finishes and Professional Installation

Because Bubble stoves are made to order, they can be customised with a range of heat-resistant colour finishes to match your boat’s interior. At Marine Heating Solutions, our OFTEC-trained engineers specialise in the complex installation of vaporising diesel burners and solid fuel systems. We ensure that every Bubble stove installation meets the necessary safety requirements and is issued with a professional safety certificate. Don’t forget that you can also lower the cost of your new system by using our stove trade-in deals.

Made To Order

Bubble Stoves are made to order. Depending on the time of year, waiting times for delivery can be around 1 to 3 weeks approximately. Please ensure that you are prepared to wait for your stove to be custom-made. The manufacturing process begins when we receive the order.
