@TheTortoise would you recommend this burner to heat up a big surface area? Wondering how do I calculate what kW log burner I would need for my open floor plan space? (Open plan space is "L" shaped and is roughly 8m x 6m). Please could you provide me some guidance, thank you I love the videos, keep them coming!
Yea I’d be keen to try one. I have spoken to them once, but I have to admit I’ve never followed it through as projects have kept on coming through. I’ll definitely get to one though!
I cover this better in some other videos, but yes typically you will get less heat initially. On the flip side you will build up thermal mass in the masonry fireplace, which will continue to bleed heat into the room much more gradually.
My place is far from modern and efficient, but it’s a 9x3.5m room, with stone floors, several doors off it, and French doors too. Definitely a gave us plenty of power, but it was nice and easy to control too, so it wasn’t a problem.
@@TheTortoise Thank you for answer. Have a smallish room with an inset R4. Was wondering to change to the R5 as it would negate having to feed it with logs every 1/2 hr. Your thoughts....? I do not have an o/s air flow. Thank you.
You should be able to get a longer burn, out of the R4 with the right technique. If however it’s burning fast because you need the power, then yes the R5 will easily solve that 👍
Great review guys, the viewing screen size is awesome, just sent this review over to my brother to look at, seems a great option for his room size 👍🏻
Sounds good, you’ll have to let us know how he gets on.
Lovely stove and a great temperature range it seems to cover. Great review as usual. Though would probably overcook me 😂 🔥
If you’re after more than 5KW, then its a great option. If you need 5, then yes definitely a bit too far.

@@Shankavellixothis is perhaps helpful for working things out:

Hi Gabriel. Any chance of testing a Dunsley stove at some point? Cheers

What size room is the R5 in?
Thank you.
