Leo V Pure Bio Stove

Leo V Pure Bio Stove

The Leo V is a 100% bio ethanol fire that has been styled around a classic, yet modern "wood burning stove" design. These fires are not just for show and are an easy-to-fit, easy-to-use, reliable alternative to a real wood burning stove.

The Technology

Bio fuel is an extremely efficient, renewable product made from waste organic matter.

The Leo V will arrive with the bio kit in place. This kit includes a sturdy cradle that holds the burner box and prevents the fuel from tipping out. Inside is a stainless steel box which contains an absorbent material that soaks up the liquid and slowly burns it, creating a lovely flame without any smoke or odour. This means that no chimney is required and the stove can be used almost anywhere.

To use the Leo V stove, carefully fill the burner box and then light the fire. That's it - it's so simple! And there is no need to get up and adjust the vents, either. Just let it burn until it burns no more. Or, if you want to extinguish the fire before it burns out, just close the flap with the tool provided.

Options

Option 1: Italian-made vitreous enamel flue pipes.

These pipes are the perfect thickness (0.7mm) as they will help with the overall output whilst still being solid and substantial-looking. Each length of flue can slot into another. For example, you could purchase a 500mm length, 90 degree bend and a wall/ceiling ring together. This will give the effect that the stove's flue is venting through the wall, like a real woodburner. This model will also include a small plate which fixes to the outlet and reduces heat loss up the flue and pushes it back down into the room.

Option 2: Log Sets

4-piece cement log set, as seen in the main image. It may be that only three of the four logs can fit inside the Leo V stove, depending on how they are laid. 

3-piece ceramic log set. Please click here for pictures and more information. These logs are also shown towards the end of the gallery images.  Please note that the logs should not be laid directly over the flame.

Leo V Pure Bio Features

• IS IT SAFE? Yes, Bio fires are extremely safe and stable, providing you read the safety warnings prior to use. One of the key safety measures is to never re-fuel when the fire is lit.
• Burn Time: Around 3 to 4 hours per 1 litre of fuel, with the vent fully open. With the vent half closed we have managed to keep it burning for over 5 hours and 30 minutes...The flame pattern does look best when fully open though, so there is a trade off.
• Heat Output: Around 2.5kw (An electric heater on medium) - We would suggest bio stoves are used as a secondary source of heating but recent feedback would suggest they can heat rather large rooms quite nicely. The rooms in question have been newer built homes which are well insulated. However, it will still have an affect on older, less well insulated rooms too.
• Weight: 25kg - Full steel body and door - For a heavier unit with cast door, we would suggest the Hampton Pure Bio 
• What fuel should I use? There are a number of companies that sell bio fuel online. EkoFuel and Planika to name just two.
• This model will include a small plate which fixes to the outlet and reduces heat loss up the flue and pushes it back down into the room. Great for if you are using the flue options.
• Perfect for media wall installations.
• Maximum capacity: 1 litre 
• Approximate running costs are £1.00 to £1.50 per hour, depending on the fuel and quantity that you buy.
• Height: 570mm, 22.44 inches.
• Width: 450mm, 17.71 inches.
• Depth: 310mm 12.20 inches.
• Glass Size: 310mm x 320mm 
• Can be sat directly onto a tiled floor. If the stove is being sat on a carpet, we would suggest sitting it on a hearth to prevent ruining the carpet.
• No set distances to combustible materials, similar to an oil fired radiator or electric heater.
