Chesneys Beaumont 5WS MK3 Wood Burning Stove
The Chesneys Beaumont 5WS MK3 Wood Burning Stove combines classic stove styling with advanced combustion technology, delivering efficient heating performance with exceptionally low emissions. Homeowners who want the atmosphere of a traditional wood fire alongside the cleaner performance of a modern appliance often choose this model because it balances visual appeal with practical day-to-day heating.
Its proportions make it particularly suitable for medium-sized living spaces, renovation projects, and modern interiors where both performance and appearance matter. At the same time, the Beaumont range retains a timeless design character while using modern engineering to improve efficiency and reduce environmental impact.
Clean-Burning Performance for Smoke Control Areas
The Beaumont 5WS MK3 meets modern heating requirements while still delivering the warmth and character associated with a real wood-burning stove.
Because Chesneys designed this model as a DEFRA-exempt appliance, homeowners can safely and legally use it in smoke control areas throughout the UK. This gives greater flexibility when planning a new installation, especially in urban locations where restrictions often apply to non-compliant stoves.
The stove also delivers impressive emissions performance, producing smoke levels of only 0.7 grams per hour. This figure sits far below current permitted limits and highlights the stove’s efficient combustion system.
As a result, homeowners looking for a cleaner heating solution can enjoy traditional stove character without compromising on environmental performance.
Heating Performance and Fuel Efficiency
The Beaumont 5WS MK3 provides dependable heating performance suited to everyday use.
The stove delivers a nominal heat output of 4.9kW and operates within a heat range between 3.5kW and 7kW. This allows homeowners to maintain comfortable warmth across smaller and medium-sized rooms while also adjusting heat levels more effectively.
Whether used as the main heat source within a living area or as additional heating alongside an existing system, the stove delivers steady and reliable performance.
The Beaumont 5WS MK3 also achieves a high net efficiency rating of 86.4%. This helps homeowners maximise usable heat from every load of fuel while reducing unnecessary fuel consumption.
Flexible Installation Options
The Beaumont 5WS MK3 offers flexible installation possibilities, making it easier to adapt to different room layouts and fireplace settings.
The stove measures 560mm wide, 624mm high, and 405mm deep, with depth increasing slightly when homeowners add the optional heat shield. Its solid construction contributes to a substantial weight of 140kg, giving the appliance a durable and premium feel.
Homeowners can also adjust clearances to combustible materials depending on installation requirements. Standard rear clearance measures 300mm, although the optional heat shield reduces this distance to 200mm. When combined with an insulated flue system, the heat shield allows rear clearance to reduce further to 100mm.
These options create greater flexibility for installations where available space may be more limited.
Professional installation helps ensure safe operation, compliance with regulations, and reliable long-term performance. Careful planning also helps homeowners position the stove effectively within the room layout.
Traditional Design with Modern Efficiency
One of the key strengths of the Beaumont collection is its ability to combine traditional design with modern stove technology.
The Beaumont 5WS MK3 retains the appearance and warmth associated with a classic stove while delivering cleaner combustion, improved efficiency, and dependable heating performance. Because of this balance, the stove suits a wide range of homes, from period properties to contemporary interiors looking for a timeless feature.
Overall, the Beaumont 5WS MK3 offers an excellent combination of style, efficiency, and practical heating performance for modern living spaces.
