Saltfire ST-X8 Tall 8kW Wood Burning And Multi Fuel Stove
Saltfire ST-X8 Tall Multi-Fuel Stove with Log Store
The ST-X8 Tall is the elevated, log-store format of Saltfire's 8kW multi-fuel stove - the same powerful clean-burn performance as the standard ST-X8, with a built-in log store base that raises the firebox to a more comfortable height and keeps fuel organised and immediately accessible underneath. At 8kW it's built for medium to large living areas where a 5kW stove runs continuously without ever quite keeping up, and the afterburner clean-burn system ensures that output is delivered efficiently rather than just thrown at the room as raw heat.
The portrait-format viewing window framed in thermo-ceramic glass is a visual signature of the ST-X8 range - a tall, narrow frame that gives a different quality of flame view to the panoramic wide-format stoves, more focused and architectural. The airwash system keeps the glass clear throughout the burn, the steel body with cast iron door and fire-brick lining gives it the structural integrity and heat retention to perform at 8kW consistently, and the multi-fuel grate handles both seasoned wood logs and approved smokeless coal without modification. Logs up to 360mm fit the firebox without needing to be cut shorter than a standard split, and the removable baffle plate and ash pan keep maintenance straightforward.
At 515mm wide and 416mm deep, this is a stove with a substantial footprint to match its output - the clearance requirements (700mm sides, 800mm rear) reflect that, and it's worth factoring into installation planning. 80.5% efficiency, EcoDesign 2022 Ready, DEFRA Exempt, top or rear 125mm flue outlet, and a 1-year warranty extendable to 5 years on registration.
