The ACR T550ECO 5kW Inset Multifuel Stove is a contemporary inset stove that builds on the styling of the T400ECO but with a wider firebox and greater log capacity. It is designed for customers who want a clean modern insert with a broader flame picture, straightforward installation and the flexibility to burn either wood or approved smokeless fuels.
A major advantage of the T550ECO is its wider format. While it keeps the same contemporary design language as the smaller T400ECO, the broader firebox gives a more expansive view of the flames and allows it to handle logs up to 40 cm long. This makes it especially appealing where the fireplace opening can accommodate a larger insert and the customer wants a stronger visual presence. A powerful airwash system helps keep the glass cleaner for longer, maintaining that wide and attractive fire view.
The stove is designed with installation in mind. A removable convection outer box helps make fitting more straightforward, and there is the option of a 3-sided or 4-sided frame to suit different fireplace settings and finishing requirements. As a multifuel stove, the T550ECO can burn both wood and smokeless fuels, giving greater day-to-day flexibility. It is also DEFRA exempt, allowing wood to be burned in smoke controlled areas, and as an Ecodesign model, it is one of the cleaner insert options available.
In performance terms, the stove offers a 5 kW nominal output, with an output range of 3 kW to 7 kW. It achieves 75.4% gross efficiency and 82.9% net efficiency, carries an A+ energy rating, weighs 75 kg, and uses a 125 mm flue diameter. A constructional hearth is required because hearth temperatures exceed 100 degrees.
