Ecosy+ Hampton Vista 500 Pure Bio Stove
The above video showcases some of the models in the bio range. In time we will do a specific video for this model, but we think the above details just how realistic they are.
The Ecosy+ Hampton Vista 500 Pure Bio is a unique and highly realistic bio-fuelled appliance which uses the same thick cast iron door, cast iron fascia and brushed fittings that are used on the real Woodburning version. Most Bio stoves are around 20kg, but because of its heavy-duty cast iron door and fittings, this model is just under 60kg and will arrive on a pallet. This model incorporates a thinner steel body than its wood burning equivalent, which helps radiate the heat into the room faster, but still maintains a robust look and feel. A perfect combination in our opinion. Its large glass frontage will offer spectacular views of the flames flickering away, and its overall height makes it perfect for tall fireplaces and freestanding installations.
The Technology
Biofuel is an extremely efficient, renewable product made from waste organic matter.
The Vista 500 Bio Stove will arrive with the Bio Kit in place. This kit includes a sturdy cradle that holds the burner box and prevents the fuel from tipping out. Inside this stainless steel box is an absorbent material that soaks up the liquid and slowly burns it, creating a lovely flame without any smoke or odour. This means that no chimney is required, and the stove can be used almost anywhere.
To use the stove, carefully fill the burner box and then light the fire. That's it - it's so simple! And there is no need to get up and adjust the vents either, just let it burn until it burns no more. If you want to extinguish the fire before it burns out, just close the flap with the tool provided.
Option List:
Option 1: We offer a range of 0.7mm thick Italian made vitreous enamel flue pipes. These pipes are the perfect thickness, as they will help with the overall output whilst still being a solid and substantial looking pipe. Each length of flue can slot into one another. For example, you could purchase a 500mm length, 90 degree bend and a wall / ceiling ring together. This will give the effect that the stove's flue is venting through the wall, like a real woodburner. This model will also include a small plate which fixes to the outlet and reduces heat loss up the flue and pushes it back down into the room. If you require multiples, please click here.
Hampton Bio Features
- Is it safe? Yes, bio fires are extremely safe and stable, providing you read the safety warnings prior to use. One of the key safety measures is to never re-fuel when the fire is lit.
- Burn Time: Around 3 to 4 hours per 1 litre of fuel, with the vent fully open. With the vent half closed we have managed to keep it burning for over 5 hours and 30 minutes...The flame pattern does look best when fully open though, so there is a trade off.
- Heat Output: Around 2.5 to 3kw (An electric heater on medium) - We would suggest Bio stoves are used as a secondary source of heating, but recent feedback would suggest they can heat whole rooms quite nicely. The rooms in question have been modern homes which are well insulated, as opposed to older, less well insulated properties.
- Weight: 60kg.
- What fuel should I use? There are a number of companies that sell bio fuel online. EkoFuel and Planika to name just two.
- Non spill (unique design helped out by the stove's weight).
- This model will include a small plate which fixes to the outlet and reduces heat loss up the flue and pushes it back down into the room.
- Ceramic logs or pebbles can be added. We do sell the logs as an option on checkout.
- Perfect for media wall installations.
- 1 litre capacity. ( Aprox )
- Approximate running costs are £1.00 to £1.50 per hour, depending on the fuel and quantity that you buy.
- Height: 855mm, 33.66 inches.
- Width: 420mm, 16.53 inches.
- Depth: 335mm 13.97 inches.
- Distance from the back of stove to centre of top flue 130mm 5.1 inches.
- 125mm 5" flue collar included.
- Can be sat directly onto a tiled floor or even carpet. If the stove is being sat on a carpet, we would suggest sitting it on a hearth to prevent ruining the carpet whilst giving it a more genuine stove look.
- No set distances to combustible materials for the stove itself - Similar to an oil fired radiator or electric heater.
7 Year Guarantee
This guarantee covers failure of the body itself and excludes the bio burner and paint finish

Shipping & Returns
All items on our website have UK mainland and Ireland shipping built into the cost. We work in partnership with Woodside Global a locally based haulage company.

Should this be the case a member of our team will call you to explain. We do offer a return to base refund and this means that you must return the item in its original unopened condition back to us. A fee of £149 will also be charged to cover the costs of our shipping, administration and restocking.
Important Delivery Information
Any stove ordered from Stoveworld NI will arrive on a pallet and, depending on the order, can weigh more than 200kg. Deliveries of this nature are very different to standard courier deliveries.
On this page we will try and outline as much information about the delivery procedure as we can but if you need any more information, please call our office on 07729862524
When will my stove arrive?
We use a third party courier for all of our deliveries as we deliver nationally. When you place an order from Stoveworld NI, we book in the delivery with our courier and then e-mail you the date on which the delivery has been booked to take place. This is usually within 5-7 working days. If you have a specific delivery day in mind (within the 5-7 day estimate) that is best for you, please add this to the ‘notes’ section and we will aim to get it out for delivery on this day.
Where will the driver leave my stove?
The delivery is a door step/kerbside delivery and the driver is not required to take the goods into the property for insurance reasons. Drivers however do their best to assist you as best as possible and most will help you move the stove. Steps, gravel driveways and narrow gates can prevent the driver leaving the goods in the desired place and in some cases, prevent a delivery altogether.
What happens in case of a delay?
Should there be any delays with a delivery, we aim to let any affected customers know ASAP after we are notified by the couriers. In the rare occurrence of a delay, we are not responsible for any loss of earnings if someone has stayed at home to wait for an item to arrive. We never recommend booking a fitter for the day of delivery; we are not responsible for the installer’s time/fee if the stove does not arrive on the advised date. We would usually advise ordering your stove in advance of your installation date by at least 4-5 working days to avoid any issues should a delay occur. Should your delivery be delayed, we are not obliged to refund the delivery charge.
Do I need to be at home?
All deliveries are made from Monday to Friday, with the usual delivery times being between 8am and 6pm. We do not receive estimated times of deliveries from the couriers, so someone would need to be available all day on the day of delivery. We ask you to leave us a contact number that we can pass on to the couriers as the drivers will usually call 30-45 minutes prior to delivery. If someone cannot be available on the day of the delivery and if we have your authorisation, a delivery can be left at your property in a ‘safe place’ stated by you. These instructions are usually followed without any problem. However, please be aware that taking delivery of a pallet while you are not at home is done at your own risk. We cannot be held liable if the depot does not put the pallet exactly where you want it.
Access Issues?
Most larger goods like stoves, pizza ovens and liner kits will arrive on large 18 ton curtain side lorries. If you live down a tight lane, please let us know in advance and we will book the order on a small vehicle “restricted access service “. Sometimes, smaller vehicles will not have a tail lift because they are not large enough to withstand the weight of the lifting equipment. In some cases, the driver may need assistance lifting the item off the vehicle to the ground. If we are not notified of restricted access in advance of the goods being shipped, this could delay the delivery.
It is the driver’s discretion as to whether he thinks the vehicle can get down the road and safely turn around. It is often stated that a dustbin lorry can get down the road but this is not a fair comparison as they will often have rear wheel steering. If the driver cannot get down the road he may ask you to meet him at another location to unload the lorry or take the goods back to the hub to be loaded on a smaller vehicle and delivered another day.
Does my address affect the cost of delivery?
We pride ourselves on making life easy for customers therefore we have teamed up with woodside haulage in Northern Ireland who offer us a single 1 off cost to all destinations throughout mainland UK and Ireland. This cost is built into our products so you can be rest assured no matter what part of the UK mainland or Ireland you may live we will have no hidden charges or fees coming your way. Unfortunately there are some Rural and island areas that we can not ship to or we may have to add an additional charge. Should this be the case a member of our team will call you to explain. We do offer a return to base refund and this means that you must return the item in its original unopened condition back to us. A fee of £149 will also be charged to cover the costs of our shipping, administration and restocking.
