- The exact stove and recorded output checked against the room brief

- Any hearth, chamber and fireplace work set out in writing
- Compatible connecting, closure and terminal components specified
- Testing, commissioning and operating guidance included where applicable
- The compliance and notification route confirmed before work is booked
Room-setting detail
Strong brick pattern with a restrained timber finish
In this setting, the vertical chamber is lined with herringbone brickwork and capped by a natural timber beam. The dark stove sits against the patterned surface without competing with it, offering one reference point for balancing material, opening height and appliance scale.
A suitable combination of stove, chamber lining, beam and hearth can only be confirmed after the opening, clearances, flue and surrounding materials have been assessed.
Before quotation
What to settle before specifying Heta Ambition 5 Wood Burning Stove
A rear connection is listed for an optional direct combustion-air supply. Whether it should be used, and how it can be routed, needs to be considered with the appliance, flue and fabric of the property.
Ventilation must be specified for the actual room and appliance under the Building Regulations in force at the time of installation. The survey should establish whether a direct-air connection or permanent room ventilation is required.
An honest steer
How it compares with similar models
Heta also build this stove on a log store base, listed on the old range as the Ambition 5 Log Store. It is the same 4.9kW stove raised on a store, not a different model.
Choose Ambition 5 over Inspire 45 for the wider contemporary face and direct air emphasis. Choose Ambition 8 only where the room can use the larger output.

Fitting the Heta Ambition 5 Wood Burning Stove in West Midlands homes
