Ecosy+ Panoramic Multi-Fuel 5kw Stove - Defra Approved, Ecodesign

Our Comments

The Ecosy+ Panoramic was one of the first Ecodesign Ready slimline stoves sold in the UK. Since its launch in 2017 it has taken the industry by storm becoming a firm favourite of many HETAS engineers, developers and interior designers. A combination of great looks, high efficiency and appealing price point.

2022 Ecodesign Ready

 The Ecosy+ Multi-Fuel Panoramic Slimline is one of the most up to date stoves on the market.  It has been tested and approved to meet the Eco Design requirements which was made mandatory for all stoves manufactured from 2022 onwards, making this stove for now and the future. The testing for this unit was carried out at Kiwa Gastec in Cheltenham and  findings approved by HETAS and listed on their official website.  Find out more about the Ecodesign scheme at stoveindustryalliance.com.

Slimline

This stove answers a lot of customers' problems - they need a physically large  stove but can only install one with a 5kw output. This has been achieved with this model by clever design. The external body is very wide (560mm) but the depth of the stove is shallow (314mm). The Panoramic also has a twin layer construction - the inner layer has been tapered in at the sides making the fire box slightly smaller and therefore reducing the potential heat output. The firebox is still 400mm wide meaning large logs are not a problem. 

This version is Defra-approved but the fitted stop can be removed if you are not in a smoke free zone and have a 6" liner installed.  

Construction

The Panoramic is a "hybrid" stove and its body is constructed from quality Q235B carbon steel, that has been chosen for its plasticity, toughness and weldability. The door is made from very thick mineral cast iron that helps retain the heat and slowly release it into the room. Having a cast iron door also enables us to add features like the shallow curves on the top and bottom. The internal lining is vermiculite and the grate is constructed from heavy duty cast iron and includes an ash pan. - The stove weighs over 110kg 

The Difference between the Panoramic and this Panoramic Multi-Fuel

The standard Panoramic is a wood burning only stove and does not require a grate, ash pan, as wood burns best with lots of air flowing over it and minimal air from underneath. This Multi-Fuel version however includes a grate and ash pan as smokeless coal burns best with lots of air rushing underneath. The Multi-Fuel version also includes a primary air control on the door to increase and decrease the primary air under the grate.  We have designed this unit to have the grate and ash pan removable so each fuel can be burnt in their preferred way.

Note: If you plan on burning mainly wood, we suggest buying the standard Panoramic and NOT the Multi-Fuel version listed here. We would only suggest this unit for people who plan on burning smokeless coal as well as wood. Or smokeless coal on its own.

We also have a stand/bench available for this stove. The stand is 275mm high and will provide log storage as well as increasing the stove's height.

Clean Burn System

The Ecosy+ has an advanced seconday/tertiary clean burn system. On more advanced units like this one, it is common to have the air fed in from the rear and split off to be fed under the fire, over the fire (Secondary burn) and over the glass to help keep it clean and clear (Airwash system). The secondary burn feature is a real advantage as this re-burns the initial gasses and smoke produced from the fire. This means you are getting every drop of heat from your fuel and in turn will save you filling the stove up as often, saving you money and time on fuel.

5 Year Guarantee

This covers the stove's body and not the internal perishable parts like grates and fire bricks. Guarantee is activated when the stove is invoiced. 6 digit number on the top of each invoice is the warranty number. For stove to be covered it must be installed by a HETAS engineer or signed off by building control.

DEFRA Approved

This version of the 5kw Panoramic has been rigorously tested and approved to burn wood in a smoke controlled zones. Defra approved stoves with 5" flue outlets, like this one, can also be installed with a 5" liner. The Defra approval has been achieved by factory fitting a mechanical stop to prevent secondary air closure beyond the 31mm open position. When ordering over the phone please specify that you require the DEFRA version. If not you may be sent the non DEFRA unit.
