    Product information

    The Salamander Hobbit Multifuel Ecodesign Stove delivers powerful heating performance from an incredibly compact, attractively designed stove. Measuring just 470mm high x 330mm wide x 330mm deep and weighing only 57kg, the petite Hobbit can be installed in the smallest spaces without compromising warmth or style.

    A mighty small stove

    Despite its diminutive size, the Hobbit packs a punch when it comes to heating ability. The Hobbit can burn wood, coal or logs and achieves an impressive heat output up to 5kW, enabling even the tiniest room to be kept wonderfully warm and cosy. This makes the compact Hobbit the perfect choice for boats, shepherd's huts, summer houses, workshops and any small space requiring a stove.

    Elegant period styling

    With its classic, curvaceous cast iron body finished in matte black as standard, the Hobbit stove combines traditional elegance with contemporary high efficiency. The Hobbit's timeless style means it suits a wide range of interiors from modern minimalist to country cottage. Its petite proportions also make it ideal for slotting into period fireplaces without detracting from ornate surrounds.

    Customisation options

    While the Hobbit comes in stylish black as standard, a range of customisation options allow you to tailor your stove's appearance. Choose custom coloured panels for stove top and bottom door, or select your own colours for airflow controls to complement your interior. This versatility makes the Hobbit stove an adaptable design classic.

  • Liner Pack & Stove Kits
    Direct Stoves - Stove Fitting Kits*
    What's included in the fitting kit
    • 1. Black stove pipe.
    • 2. A registration plate is used to seal the chimney opening off from the room preventing dust, soot, dirt and debris falling down the chimney. It also helps to prevent a draft coming down the chimney. We supply a standard 800mm x 400mm galvanised steel register plate with all our stoves. You will simply need to cut the plate to size to fit into your chimney opening.
    • 3. We also provide you with a single stove glove that you can use for stoking the fire and adding wood without the risk of personal injury.

    *Only available for wood, multifuel and gas stoves. Excluded for the following which do not need these items: inset stoves, electric stoves, flueless and balanced flue gas stoves and outdoor & garden products.

    Optional Extras.
    Carbon Monoxide Detector:

    Due to an update to Building Regulations it is now law to have a Carbon Monoxide alarm present in any room with a solid fuel appliance:- The Building Regulations 2000 Approved Document J (2010 Edition) '2.34 Where a new or replacement fixed solid fuel appliance is installed in the dwelling, a carbon monoxide alarm should be provided in the room where the appliance is located.'



    Flue Liner Packs:
    The flue liner pack consists of; a flue adaptor, which connects the stove pipe to the flexible flue liner, Dura Flue flexible flue liner (this will have a relevant diameter to the outlet size of the stove and 316 Grade) cut to the required length and a pot hanger rain cap, this supports the flue liner from the top of the chimney and also acts as a bird guard and rain cap.

    Stove Pipe with Door:
    A stove pipe with door or access point, allows the chimney to be swept through the pipe itself.

  • Delivery Info

    Free 1 Man Delivery – For Full Details Please See Delivery Information

    Our "Free Delivery" is a one-man service. The goods will arrive on a lorry that is about the size of a fire engine. (Please let us know in advance if you have restricted access or other local issues that could affect delivery).

    The lorry has a tail lift that allows the driver to get the item(s) off the vehicle. The order will be packed and secured onto a pallet and the driver will have a pallet truck. He'll be able to wheel this as close as possible to your property. The pallet truck can only be wheeled over a finished surface so it's not possible to wheel it over a gravelled drive, steps, steep slopes for example. The pallets are normally about 1m wide so this is the minimum width gate they can fit through. Please note that the driver is not insured to unpack or carry the item(s) into your house.

    Fitting Kits and Liner Packs might arrive separately by courier delivery on the same day unless specified/requested in advance. An email confirmation will be sent if this is the case.

    If the goods are showing 48hr delivery, then this is the quickest time we're able to deliver these items (We do not deliver at weekends). You'll be asked to select a delivery date when purchasing the goods. Please note that if you live offshore these dates do not apply as it will take us slightly longer to get the goods to you and we will contact you directly.

    Please note that it is an all-day delivery service which is generally from 9 am – 6 pm Monday to Friday. Delivery Depots, if they have the facility, will text in advance but as the vans do multiple runs a day you might not receive a text until the afternoon if this service is available.

    Due to current pallet network pressures mainly due to driver shortages we cannot guarantee delivery on your chosen day but will do our best to communicate this as soon as we are made aware by the carriers.

    PLEASE NOTE THAT WE STRONGLY ADVISE THAT YOU DO NOT BOOK ANY CONTRACTORS, PLUMBER’S, OR FITTERS UNTIL YOU HAVE RECEIVED YOUR GOODS AS UNEXPECTED DELAYS CAN OCCUR.
