Ecosy+ Hampton Vista 500 Pedestal Pure Bio Stove

The above video showcases some of the models in the bio range. In time we will do a specific video for this model, but we think the above video demonstrates just how realistic they are.

The Ecosy+ Hampton Vista 500 Pedestal Pure Bio stove is a unique and highly realistic bio-fuelled appliance which uses the same thick cast iron door, cast iron fascia and brushed fittings that are used on the real woodburning versions. Most Bio stoves are around 20kg, but because of its heavy-duty cast iron door and fittings, this model is just under 60kg and will arrive on a pallet. This model incorporates a thinner steel body than its wood burning equivalent, which helps radiate the heat into the room faster but still maintains a robust look and feel - a perfect combination in our opinion. Its large glass frontage will offer spectacular views of the flames flickering away, and its raised pedestal makes it perfect for tall fireplaces and freestanding installations.

The Hampton Vista 500 Pure Bio stove is also available with a stand/log store in place of the pedestal.

The Technology

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

The Vista 500 Pedestal Bio Stove 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 this stainless steel box is 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 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. If you want to extinguish the fire before it burns out, just close the flap with the tool provided.

Option List

Option 1:

We offer two log options: a ceramic set and a cement set, both of which are shown in the gallery. Please note that the logs should not be laid directly over the flame.

Refuel your bioethanol fireplace cleanly and safely with this purpose-designed filling funnel. Created specifically for ethanol burners, it helps reduce spills and improves control during refilling.

Option 2:

The "Complete Bio Flue – Large" is designed for those looking to position their stove freestanding against a wall rather than inside a chimney. It creates the realistic effect of a chimney emerging from the top of the stove, turning 90 degrees, and passing through the wall, just like a traditional wood-burning stove setup. ( This flue cannot be used with any of lengths that we sell )

The " Telescopic 90 Degree Pure Bio Flue " allows you to position the stove exactly where you want it while maintaining the correct air gaps. It is compatible with all current bio stoves that we sell and should also suit the majority of others sold online. No seals or screws are required. The pipe simply sits on top of the stove and magnetically attaches to the metal surface. The opposite end features a rim that creates a realistic impression of a working flue venting through the wall. Ventilation holes have been incorporated into the flue to prevent any potential heat build-up inside. Offers a maximum length of 351mm and shortest length of 251mm.

Option 3:

We also offer high-quality 0.7 mm Italian-made vitreous enamel flue pipes. These provide an excellent balance of strength, appearance, and performance, and each section slots neatly together for a clean, professional finish.

A 500 mm or 1000 mm length is ideal for installations inside a chimney, while 90° bends and wall rings can be combined with additional lengths for freestanding setups where the "Complete Bio Flue" isn’t suitable. There are no limits to how many sections can be joined together, allowing full flexibility in your installation.

Each model includes a small heat retention plate that fits to the outlet, reducing heat loss up the flue and helping to push more warmth back into the room.

Option 4: Truncated 20mm Honed Granite Hearth - These granite hearths are the perfect addition for a free-standing install. We also offer a wide range of other granite hearth options..

Hampton 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 2.5 to 3kw (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 whole rooms quite nicely. The rooms in question have been modern homes which are well insulated as opposed to older, less well insulated properties.
Weight: 65kg.
What fuel should I use? There are a number of companies that sell bio fuel online. EkoFuel and Planika to name just two.
Non spill (unique design helped out by the stove's weight).
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.
Ceramic logs or pebbles can be added. We do sell the logs as an option on checkout.
Perfect for media wall installations.
1 litre capacity. (Approx)
Approximate running costs are £1.00 to £1.50 per hour, depending on the fuel and quantity that you buy.
Height: 955mm
Width: 474mm
Depth: 375mm
Distance from the back of stove to centre of top flue 160mm
125mm 5" flue collar included.
Can be sat directly onto a tiled floor or even carpet. If the stove is being sat on a carpet, we would suggest sitting it on a hearth to prevent ruining the carpet whilst giving it a more genuine stove look.
No set distances to combustible materials for the stove itself - Similar to an oil fired radiator or electric heater.
We recommend placing the stove in a well-ventilated room with a volume of at least 25 cubic meters.
Do not place the stove in a room with a strong draught, as this can negatively affect its performance.

7 Year Guarantee

This guarantee covers failure of the body itself and excludes the bio burner and paint finish
