ESSE 550 Ecodesign 5KW

Contemporary Style Meets Efficient Heating

The ESSE 550 is a beautifully designed multifuel stove that combines modern styling with the proven performance expected from ESSE. Based on the highly regarded ESSE 500 firebox, the 550 features longer legs, clean lines and an oversized viewing window that allows you to enjoy a clear view of the fire.

Its understated appearance makes it equally suited to contemporary open-plan spaces, home offices and traditional living rooms, creating a warm and welcoming focal point wherever it is installed.

Flexible Multifuel Performance

Designed to burn both wood and smokeless fuels, the ESSE 550 offers flexibility to suit different heating preferences. The twin-position riddling grate allows easy adjustment depending on the fuel being used, making the stove practical for everyday use.

Primary and secondary air controls provide precise control over the burn rate, helping you achieve the heat output and flame effect you want. An integrated airwash system helps keep the glass cleaner, so you can enjoy the view of the flames for longer.

EcoDesign Ready and DEFRA Exempt

The ESSE 550 is EcoDesign Ready and DEFRA exempt, meaning it can be used in UK smoke control areas when burning approved fuels. This makes it a suitable choice for homeowners looking for an efficient stove that meets current environmental requirements.
