About the stove and how it works
Ecosy+ stoves is one of the largest UK stove manufacturers and has sold tens of thousands of stoves direct to the public and trade over its 10+ year history. This particular model is a reliable, stylish and efficient fully cast iron stove that will look stunning in any room, complementing either modern or traditional decor. The thick cast iron not only gives the stove a robust look and feel but will also contribute to the longevity of the product. And at 80kg, the Rock SD 5kw is much heftier than competing compact stoves which commonly weigh around 55 to 65kg. And there’s good reason: the thicker cast iron allows the stove to continue to pump heat out long after the flames have died down. A key advantage of a cast iron unit.
Gaining Defra and Ecodesign approval has been achieved by its simple yet effective tertiary burn and baffle design. The tertiary burn system re-burns the initial smoke produced by the fire. The twin baffle helps to keep heat in the chamber and also creates a tumbling effect which recirculates the smoke back into the stove. The two components work together, helping to reduce emissions and increase efficiency.
The Rock SD is a wood-only stove, but, unlike many wood-only stoves, it does come with a handy grate and ash pan – something that many customers like to have, despite it not being required on a wood-only stove. Having the grate inside also allows for a primary air control on the door, which can make lighting the stove easier.
All parts and fittings on this stove are simple yet solid and easy to replace if you ever needed to. Parts for some models can be very hard to get, extremely expensive and hard to fit.
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 / OFTEC engineer or signed off by building control.
DEFRA Approved
This Rock SD has been rigorously tested and approved to burn wood in 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 full secondary air closure. If you are not in a smoke-free zone and have not installed a 5″ liner, this can be removed.
