Who is Pivot?

Pivot Stove and Heating is Australia’s oldest heating store – established in 1876 by James Alexander Parker, back when Geelong was called Pivot City.

Pivot Stove & Heating has been handed down generation to generation, now owned and operated by Greg Parker-Hill (Sixth Generation Owner) and his wife Tammie Parker-Hill.

What Pivot is, is six generations of passion – in fire

We have three locations

Geelong CBD (Retail Showroom)

North Geelong (Warehouse, Wholesale, and Retail Showroom)

Dandenong South (Retail Showroom)

Plus a dealer network right across Australia with over 90 locations!

Pivot Stove & Heating is a wholesale and retail business, specializing in heating that has the best technology, performance, and back up service possible.

We are based in Geelong, Victoria, just one hour from Melbourne; but it’s our Australia-wide Dealer Network that makes what we do work.

We started back in 1876 with the first Australian made Slow Combustion Wood Stove.

“We don’t sell average wood heating, we sell fires that burn less wood, burn longer, and are built to last”

We do it ourselves...
