Chesneys Solstice 5WS/Log Store Wood Burning Stove

Chesneys Solstice 5WS/Log Store Wood Burning Stove

The Chesneys Solstice 5WS/Log Store Wood Burning Stove combines contemporary styling with practical heating performance in a design created for modern living spaces. Chesneys designed this model to deliver efficient heating and exceptionally low emissions while maintaining a clean, elevated appearance that fits naturally into a wide range of interiors.

Its integrated log store base increases visual presence and adds everyday convenience. This raised design also creates a stronger focal point within the room while providing practical storage space beneath the firebox.

Because of this balance between design and function, the Solstice 5WS/Log Store suits homeowners who want both reliable heating and a modern architectural feature.

Clean-Burning Performance for Smoke Control Areas

The Solstice 5WS/Log Store meets modern environmental standards while still preserving the atmosphere of a real wood-burning fire.

Since it is DEFRA exempt, homeowners can legally install and use it in smoke control areas across major towns and cities in the UK. This allows greater flexibility when selecting a stove in urban and regulated environments.

The stove also produces very low emissions, with smoke levels significantly below those permitted for comparable DEFRA-exempt models. As a result, it supports cleaner combustion and reduces environmental impact while maintaining efficient day-to-day performance.

Efficient Heating for Everyday Living

The Solstice 5WS/Log Store delivers consistent warmth for smaller and medium-sized living spaces.

It provides a nominal heat output of 4.8kW and operates within a heat range between 3.5kW and 7kW. This range allows homeowners to adjust output depending on room size and seasonal demand.

Because of this flexibility, the stove works well as a primary heat source in compact rooms or as supplementary heating in larger homes. It also achieves a net efficiency rating of 75.2%, which helps convert more fuel into usable heat during operation.

Contemporary Design with Integrated Log Storage

The integrated log store defines the Solstice 5WS/Log Store’s design. It raises the firebox to a more comfortable viewing height and improves the visual impact of the flame within the room.

At the same time, the lower section provides practical storage for logs, keeping fuel neatly organised and close to the appliance. This helps maintain a tidy installation while improving everyday usability.

Because of this combination of function and appearance, the stove fits especially well in modern interiors that favour clean lines and structured layouts.

Flexible Installation Possibilities

The Solstice 5WS/Log Store measures 992mm high, 450mm wide, and 450mm deep. These proportions create a compact footprint while still delivering a strong vertical presence.

The stove integrates easily into a range of layouts, including existing fireplaces and modern feature wall designs.

Professional installation helps ensure safe operation, correct flue design, and long-term efficiency. It also supports accurate positioning within the room, especially when the log store base forms part of a visible design feature.

Designed for Modern Homes

The Solstice 5WS/Log Store combines efficient heating performance with contemporary styling and practical storage.

It delivers steady warmth while maintaining a modern, elevated appearance. Overall, it provides a balanced solution for homeowners who want both everyday functionality and a strong design feature in their living space.
