WestFire Uniq 26 Wood Burning Stove

Westfire Uniq 26 Wood Burning Stove

Designed to make a statement without shouting for attention, the Westfire Uniq 26 is a modern wood burning stove that blends architectural height with refined Scandinavian simplicity. Its upright, cylindrical form immediately sets it apart from traditional box-style stoves, creating a slim yet striking presence that works beautifully in contemporary UK homes.

The defining feature of the Uniq 26 is its impressive vertical viewing window. Rather than spreading the fire wide, Westfire has drawn the eye upward, allowing flames to dance naturally from base to top. The result is a fire picture that feels deep, immersive and calming - ideal for creating atmosphere as much as warmth. Whether positioned against a clean plastered wall or paired with a minimalist hearth, the Uniq 26 delivers visual impact without overpowering the room.

Behind its elegant exterior, the Uniq 26 is engineered to perform efficiently and responsibly. With a nominal heat output of 5kW, it is perfectly balanced for small to medium living spaces, offering comfortable warmth without excessive heat build-up. The stove’s efficient combustion system ensures wood burns steadily and cleanly, extracting maximum heat from every log while keeping emissions to a minimum.

A carefully designed airwash system helps keep the glass clear during use, directing airflow across the inside of the window to reduce soot and tar deposits. This means less time spent cleaning and more time enjoying an uninterrupted view of the flames, even during longer burns.

Every design detail has been considered with modern living in mind. The discreet stainless steel handle sits flush against the stove body, maintaining its smooth, uncluttered lines. When the stove is unlit, it still functions as a stylish interior feature, reflecting Westfire’s focus on form as well as function.

Fully compliant with the latest Ecodesign standards, the Westfire Uniq 26 meets current UK clean air legislation, making it a forward-thinking choice for homeowners investing in long-term heating solutions. A Smoke Control Area approved model is available, allowing installation in designated urban areas where permitted.

For homes with high levels of insulation or airtight construction, the Uniq 26 can be configured with an external air supply (closed combustion). This allows combustion air to be drawn from outside the property rather than the room, improving efficiency and helping maintain indoor air quality. A dedicated adapter is required when selecting this option.

Those looking to enhance heat retention can also opt for a soapstone top. This natural material absorbs warmth while the stove is in use and gently releases it back into the room once the fire has burned down, extending comfort long after the flames fade.
