Aptly named "Sanctuary," this stove was conceived as a tranquil escape, offering a warm and inviting focal point not just for gatherings but for those cherished moments of peace and solitude. Whether you’re looking to retreat from the outside world or create a cosy space for friends and family, the Chesneys Sanctuary 5WS is designed to be a source of comfort, quiet, and reflection.
Crafted with sleek, uncluttered lines, the Sanctuary 5’s design is enhanced by its innovative hidden touch-point mechanism, eliminating the need for a traditional handle. This subtle yet luxurious feature allows you to open and close the stove door with ease, offering the satisfying feel of a high-end product. The stove door itself is curvaceous, framing a large viewing window that provides an unobstructed, mesmerising view of the dancing flames within. The attention to detail extends to the finishing touches, with a decorative band and finely knurled air control lever available in either brass or steel, adding a refined contrast to the stove’s contemporary appearance.
In terms of performance, the Sanctuary 5WS is DEFRA exempt, making it suitable for use in smoke control areas across the UK. This ensures that even city dwellers can enjoy the warmth and ambience of a log burner, safe in the knowledge that it meets strict environmental standards. With an impressive net efficiency rating of 86.4%, this stove not only minimises emissions but also maximises heat output, providing between 3.5kW and 7kW of heat, with a nominal output of 4.9kW. This efficiency is paired with a clean-burn system that recycles gases to reduce pollution and fuel consumption, making it an eco-friendly option for the modern home.
The Chesneys Sanctuary 5 is available in classic black as standard, but for those looking to make a style statement, Chesneys offers a range of painted finishes to complement your décor. The stove is available in both standard and Log Store (LS) versions. The LS model raises the stove on a practical yet stylish base, providing extra storage space for your logs while elevating the fire chamber to eye level, ensuring the perfect viewing experience while seated.
Every element of the Chesneys Sanctuary 5 has been meticulously crafted to deliver an effortless combination of style, comfort, and functionality. Whether you choose the elegant brass or understated steel finishes, and whether you opt for the standard model or the log store base, this stove promises to become a defining feature of your living space. For those who value both design and performance, the Sanctuary is an excellent choice, offering warmth and sophistication in equal measure.
