THE LOGS
Season them, split them.
Use hardwood with a moisture content below 20%. Split any log more than 6 cm across, and keep the length to about 250 mm so it lies flat over the embers. No other fuel belongs in this stove.

WIKING S1 5kW Slow Combustion Fireplace.
Hardwood only.
The WIKING S1 5kW Slow Combustion Fireplace is a full cast-iron, closed-combustion stove made for well-seasoned hardwood. Keep the moisture below 20%, split anything over 6 cm across, and lay logs of up to about 250 mm flat over the embers. Ash falls through the riddling grate into the ashpan. Then pour yourself something and watch it burn.

THE END OF THE DAY
Mug in hand, fire going.
The work is done, the kitchen can wait and the mug is still hot. Hardwood burns behind the S1's glass while the evening settles outside. It is a small ritual and a lekker one: find the good chair, sit back and say nothing for a while.
The flue pipe is sold separately. The concrete hearth, furniture, rug and kitchen are not included. Have an independent installer confirm the hearth, flue route and clearances.
GOOD WOOD, GOOD FIRE
Plan the logs, the flue and the room.
THE FLUE
On top or at the back.
The S1 takes a 125 mm nominal flue pipe with 1 m of 6 mm rope and no appliance adaptor. Never connect it to a shared chimney or flue. Your independent installer selects the actual system.
THE ROOM
Keep the furniture back.
Allow 1,000 mm between the stove and household furnishings and 1,200 mm above it to a combustible ceiling, and 800 mm from combustible materials is recommended.

GOOD TO KNOW
Plan your setup.
Read your instruction manual before you plan the installation. S105HEU2 is the listed manual for the S1.

What is included?
The WIKING S1 stove, with its riddling grate, ashpan, door and handle. Flue pipes, a cowl, bends, a T-piece drain, escutcheon plates and wall brackets are options you can add on this page. The hearth and the installation are not included.
How much heat does it give?
Nominal output is 5 kW and maximum output is 7 kW. Our output calculator uses 6 kW, the middle of the two. Tell us about your room if you want a second opinion.
Which fuel and what size logs?
Hardwood only. Do not use any other fuel in this stove. Use well-seasoned wood with a moisture content below 20%. Logs can be about 250 mm long at most, so that they lie flat over the embers. Split any log more than 6 cm in diameter.
Where does the flue connect?
On top or at the rear, on a nominal 125 mm flue pipe with 1 m of 6 mm rope. No appliance adaptor is specified. Have an independent installer select the system and plan the route, height and support. Never connect this stove to a shared chimney or flue.
Is the flue included?
No. Flue pipes, a cowl and the other flue parts are options on this page, because they depend on your room and roof. Send a photo and measurements for a product and flue configuration quote, and we will help you choose the right parts.
How much space does it need?
The stove is 450 mm wide and 396 mm deep from the back to the curved front, and the door handle stands out past that. It stands 578 mm to the top plate, or 616.6 mm with the flue collar. Allow 1,000 mm to household furnishings and 1,200 mm above it to a combustible ceiling, and 800 mm from combustible materials is recommended. Your installer must follow the installation manual that comes with the unit.
What hearth does it need?
Allow a further 400 mm of hearth in front of the stove. A constructional hearth must be at least 125 mm thick, finish included. A 12 mm non-combustible sheet is possible only outside a recess and subject to testing, so read the manual before you plan it. Your installer confirms the hearth for your floor and room.
Can it stand in a recess?
Yes, with free air around it: 200 mm at each side, 200 mm above and 150 mm behind. These gaps apply only in a recess. Have your installer check the whole opening against the manual.
Can I fit an extractor fan in the same room?
No. Do not fit an extractor fan in the same room as the stove. It also has no outside-air connection, so talk to your installer about both early on, while your plans can still change.
How heavy is it?
The net weight is 92 kg. Plan how it will be moved into place, and have your installer check that the floor and the hearth can carry it.
What does the guarantee cover?
The extended three-year warranty on the main body applies when bought new from Home Fires or an authorised retailer and registered within 30 days. Without registration it falls to 12 months. It covers the first owner at the first location, and needs compliant professional installation with proof and commissioning documents. Glass, grates, baffles, handles, seals, paint and other consumables are excluded. The manual has the full terms.
Can you help with my setup?
Yes. Send a photo and your room measurements for a product and flue configuration quote. We do not install, so arrange installation with an independent installer.
