Dik Geurts Instyle Front 500 Insert / Built-In Wood Burning Stove
The Dik Geurts Instyle Front 500 Insert Wood Burning Stove is a versatile built-in fireplace that brings the warmth and atmosphere of a real wood fire into both traditional and contemporary homes. Although compact in size, it delivers impressive performance and a clean, streamlined appearance. It works equally well as a hole-in-the-wall fire or as part of a more traditional fireplace with a surround and hearth.
One of the Instyle 500’s key advantages is its installation flexibility. Installers can fit it into a standard UK brick chimney, making it an excellent choice for renovation projects and new interior designs alike. Its horizontal flame picture provides a wide, inviting view of the fire, helping the fireplace become a natural focal point in any room.
Flexible Installation for Different Interior Styles
Dik Geurts designed the Instyle 500 to suit a wide range of fireplace styles and room layouts. Whether you prefer the minimalist look of a contemporary built-in fire or a more traditional fireplace arrangement, this model adapts easily to complement its surroundings.
Homeowners can choose from three frame options—Classic Line, Modern Line, and Slim Line—to create the desired finish. These choices allow the stove to blend seamlessly into modern architectural spaces and traditional living environments.
With a built-in depth of just 350mm, the appliance integrates neatly into many fireplace constructions while maintaining a clean, balanced appearance.
Efficient Heating Performance Dik Geurts Instyle Front 500 Wood Stove
Despite its compact dimensions, the Instyle 500 delivers impressive heating performance. It produces a nominal heat output of 4.9kW and operates within a range of 3kW to 7kW, making it suitable for a variety of room sizes.
Its 82% efficiency rating maximises the heat generated from every log, helping reduce fuel consumption while maintaining comfortable warmth. The stove also achieves an A+ energy efficiency rating, demonstrating its ability to combine strong performance with economical operation.
The firebox accepts logs up to 35cm in length, offering a practical balance between convenience and extended burn times.
Clean Combustion and EcoDesign Compliance
Dik Geurts developed the Instyle 500 to meet modern environmental standards while preserving the enjoyment of a real wood fire.
Advanced combustion technology helps the stove reduce emissions and improve overall efficiency, enabling it to meet EcoDesign Ready requirements. The appliance also holds DEFRA approval for smoke control areas, allowing homeowners to use it legally in many towns and cities across the UK.
In addition, the stove carries EN16510-1, Flamme Verte, BlmSchV, and HETAS certifications, confirming its compliance with recognised industry standards for performance and emissions.

The appliance features a top flue connection and supports external air connections from either the rear or base, giving installers greater flexibility during installation.
