Is it right for you?

Deciding whether ACR Woodpecker WP5 Plus Multifuel Stove fits the brief

The WP5 Plus suits rooms that want a bit more presence and firebox than the compact WP5 gives, without moving to a cast iron stove. The wider body and the broader burn range make it easy to turn down for a mild evening or up for a cold one.

It is a good fit where the opening has the width for a 490mm stove and you want the flexibility of both wood and smokeless fuel.

Before quotation

What to settle before specifying ACR Woodpecker WP5 Plus Multifuel Stove

The WP5 Plus is wider than the standard WP5, so on the survey we check the opening width and side clearances before confirming it. It sits on a 12mm non-combustible hearth, and like the rest of the Woodpecker range it takes an external air supply well in airtight homes. We confirm the flue route and, in smoke control areas, the DEFRA position for your address.

An honest steer

How it compares with similar models

Choose the WP5 Plus over the standard WP5 for the wider body, the larger firebox and the broader 2kW to 8kW range, when the opening has room for it. Both are 5kW A+ multifuel stoves, so it is about firebox size and flexibility, not headline output.

If you want the same firebox raised on a log store stand as a freestanding stove, the WP5 QLS is the model. If space is tight, the compact WP5 is the narrower choice.

Fitting it locally

Fitting the ACR Woodpecker WP5 Plus Multifuel Stove in West Midlands homes

One for the average to larger lounges around Sutton Coldfield, Tamworth and Lichfield, where the opening can take a wider stove and you want a firebox with a bit more room. We confirm the width and clearances on the survey.

Common questions

Questions to check about ACR Woodpecker WP5 Plus Multifuel Stove

What makes the WP5 Plus different from the WP5?

The Plus is the wider 490mm stove with a larger firebox and a broader burn range of roughly 2kW to 8kW. The standard WP5 is the compact 420mm version. Both are 5kW A+ multifuel stoves, so it comes down to the space and the firebox size you want.

How efficient is the WP5 Plus?

It runs at 73.98% gross, 81.3% nett efficiency. Running it on dry, seasoned wood keeps it burning at its best, which we go through at handover.

Can the WP5 Plus burn anthracite?

Yes. It is multifuel and takes seasoned logs or approved smokeless fuels including anthracite, which suits people who want a longer, steadier burn overnight.

What is the fitted price of the WP5 Plus?

We quote after a showroom visit or free home survey, and the five year body warranty is registered at handover. Visit the Lichfield showroom or book a survey for a proper figure.
