Default Buying a Kazan/Wood burning central heating

Just wondered if anyone has experience of or know the best place to purchase a kazan? I'm fed up waiting for one to be built so am looking into this as we are not going another winter without central heating of some description. We're only going to be in this house for another 6 months at the most.I know Bauhaus do them for around the HUF 250000 mark, but have no idea of they are any good or not.

Did you mean a tiled stove (cserépkályha)? I have never heard of a Kazan.

A Kazán is a central heating boiler (either gas or solid fuel)
A Bojler (pronounced a bit like the English 'boiler') is a hot water tank with an immersion heater.
A Kályha is a stand alone heater made of either iron / steel = vaskályha or ceramic tiles = cserépkályha

Yes a Kazan! Saw a couple in the Bauhaus, pricey, but seemed solid enough. Just not sure where else they can be obtained from?

By the way you also get
vízteres kandalló which is a wood burning stove with a back boiler
(A kandalló is an up market vaskályha, ornamental / nice enough to have in a modern lounge)
