Northern Flame Hampton Vista 500 Oval Fireplace

The Hampton Vista 500 Oval combines a striking, tall aesthetic with high-performance engineering. Featuring a stylishly shaped 30mm thick cast-iron door and a "hybrid" steel body, this fireplace is designed for those who value both form and environmental responsibility. As an SIA Ecodesign Ready and ClearSkies accredited appliance, it offers a massive reduction in particulates—up to 90% less than an open fire—making it one of the cleanest heating solutions available today. Key Features & Design Sophisticated Oval Silhouette: A tall, modern design that includes an integrated log stand for convenient fuel storage and a streamlined look. Compact Installation: Equipped with a built-in heat shield, allowing for closer placement to combustibles (10cm rear / 20cm sides with a twin-walled flue)—perfect for wall or corner setups. Ergonomic Styling: Features a handle that tucks neatly into the design below the door, maintaining clean lines without sacrificing usability. Premium Materials: Built with a 10mm thick steel top and 5mm steel sides for exceptional durability and rapid heat distribution. Hybrid Combustion & Airflow The Vista 500 Oval utilizes a "stove-within-a-stove" concept, where air is pre-heated between steel layers before entering the chamber to ensure a "Slow Burn" efficiency: Air System Control Mechanism Primary Function Tertiary Air Rear chamber holes Re-burns initial smoke and pollutants for a cleaner, more efficient exhaust. Air Wash Automatic curtain High-velocity air creates a thermal curtain that keeps the large glass window soot-free. Precision Lever Single control A well-engineered lever provides incredibly accurate control over the fire intensity. Ease of Use: This innovative airflow design reduces the risk of smoke escaping into the room when the door is opened, ensuring a clean and convenient experience for the user. Internal Engineering & Maintenance Specifically optimized for wood-burning, the Oval focuses on creating the ideal environment for logs: Flatbed Combustion: Designed without a grate or ash pan, allowing wood to burn on a bed of ash—the most efficient way to consume timber. Thermal Insulation: The chamber is lined with 30mm thick vermiculite, keeping internal temperatures high to facilitate a complete burn. Log Capacity: Comfortably accommodates 25cm logs, with a spacious vertical chamber height of 47.4cm. External Air Ready: Features an optional connection for an external air intake, essential for modern, airtight homes. Global Standards & Certification While Ecodesign is not yet mandatory in all regions, the Hampton Vista 500 Oval is built to the world's most stringent U.K. and European benchmarks. DEFRA Approved: Factory-fitted with a mechanical air stop, certifying it as a Smoke Exempt (SE) appliance for use in smoke-controlled urban zones. Rigorous Testing: Performance and emission levels have been verified by Kiwa Gastec in the UK. Quality Assurance: Manufactured to European design standards and backed by a 5-year limited warranty.
