Is it right for you?
Who the Contura 870 Style Wood Burning Stove suits best
The 870 Style is for rooms where the stove sits in the open rather than tucked low into a fireplace. The raised fire suits extensions, glazed rooms and open-plan spaces where the flame needs to be seen from seated and standing positions.
From the survey
Installation notes for the Contura 870 Style Wood Burning Stove
We set out the hearth and walking routes around the pedestal carefully, especially where the stove may be viewed from more than one angle. If a turntable is considered, clearances and flue route need checking early.

How it compares with similar models
Mechanically it sits close to the 810 Style, but the proportions are completely different. The 810 is compact and grounded; the 870 is taller, lighter and more architectural.

Common questions
Contura 870 Style Wood Burning Stove FAQs
Can the Contura 870 Style rotate?
The 870 family can be specified with an optional turntable. We confirm suitability against the flue and clearances.
Is the 870 Style hotter than the 810 Style?
No. Both are 5kW nominal models. The main difference is the pedestal format and viewing height.
Does it work without an existing chimney?
Potentially, yes, with a twin-wall flue system. The route is confirmed on survey.
