Technical documents
Is it right for you?
Deciding whether ACR Woodpecker WP5 Multifuel Stove fits the brief
The Woodpecker WP5 suits smaller and average living rooms where the chimney breast is narrow and floor space is limited. At 420mm wide it is the most compact of the multifuel Woodpecker stoves, so it fits where a wider stove would not.
It is a good fit for buyers who want a modern compact stove but still want the flexibility of burning smokeless fuel as well as wood.
Before quotation
What to settle before specifying ACR Woodpecker WP5 Multifuel Stove
On the survey we check the opening width, hearth and flue route to confirm the compact WP5 is the right fit. It sits on a 12mm non-combustible hearth, so a decorative hearth is usually enough. It takes an external air supply well in newer, airtight homes, which we assess along with ventilation. In smoke control areas we confirm the DEFRA position for your address.
An honest steer
How it compares with similar models
Choose the WP5 when space is tight and you want a compact multifuel stove. If you want a wider body and a slightly larger firebox, the WP5 Plus is 490mm wide with a wider burn range. If you want the same stove raised on a log store stand, the WP5 QLS is the freestanding version.
The WP5 is multifuel. If you only ever burn wood and want a dedicated wood stove, the smaller WP4 is worth a look, though it is a lower 4.3kW output.
Fitting it locally
Fitting the ACR Woodpecker WP5 Multifuel Stove in West Midlands homes
A neat, practical stove for the smaller lounges and terraces around Lichfield, Cannock and Walsall, where the chimney breast is narrow but the room still needs proper heat. We size it to the room on the survey rather than assuming 5kW is right.
Common questions
Questions to check about ACR Woodpecker WP5 Multifuel Stove
How wide is the Woodpecker WP5?
It is 420mm wide, which is the most compact of the multifuel Woodpecker stoves and suits a standard, narrower fireplace opening. We measure your opening on the survey.
Can the WP5 burn smokeless fuel and anthracite?
Yes. It is a multifuel stove and takes seasoned logs or approved smokeless fuels including anthracite, which many people like for a longer, steadier burn.
What is the difference between the WP5 and the WP5 Plus?
The WP5 Plus is the wider 490mm model with a larger firebox and a wider burn range. The WP5 is the more compact 420mm version. Both are 5kW multifuel stoves, so it comes down to the space you have.
What warranty does the Woodpecker WP5 carry?
Five years on the stove body through an authorised ACR retailer, which we are. We register it at handover, and the annual service keeps the cover valid. Ask us for a fitted price at the Lichfield showroom or on a survey.
