Details

The Saltfire ST-X4 Wood Burning Stove is a compact, powerful little stove, rated at 4.1kW with an impressive 80% efficiency rating. It burns wood far cleaner than the standard required for DEFRA exemption, which means you can legally use it anywhere in the UK - even in smoke control zones. Like all Saltfire models, the ST-X4 is also EcoDesign Ready, so it already meets the tougher environmental rules that came into play from 2022 onwards.

This wood burning stove is designed to be simple to use, with straightforward controls that let you easily adjust the flame pattern to suit your mood. Behind the scenes, it uses Saltfire’s clever “after-burner” system, which improves efficiency and gives a great flame effect. The ST-X4 is a proper multi-fuel stove, so it can burn both logs and smokeless coal efficiently. Ash falls neatly into the ashpan below the grate, and when it’s full you can just lift it out for quick and easy emptying.

Built with a precision-welded steel body and a heavy-duty cast iron door, the ST-X4 is solidly made and finished in tough, heat-resistant black paint sourced from the USA. The large window is made from thermo-ceramic glass, giving you a brilliant view of the flames, and an effective airwash system helps keep that glass clearer for longer. With a choice of top or rear 5" flue outlets, this stove can be installed with either a 5" liner or a twinwall system, making it versatile for different homes.

Delivery - What to Expect

Our standard deliveries arrive via a 10-tonne lorry (similar in size to a bin wagon or fire engine), equipped with a tail lift and pallet truck.
Access must be suitable: solid, level surfaces (no gravel, steps, steep slopes, or grass).
For palletised deliveries the driver will move the pallet to the nearest accessible point, but cannot go over unsuitable terrain or carry goods indoors, though may place them inside a garage if accessible.
If you have narrow gates, restricted access, or other challenges, please let us know in advance so we can make suitable arrangements.
Our free service is a one-man delivery. We recommend having someone available to assist, especially for larger items.
The delivery driver is not able to unpack or install your goods unless this is a service you have selected.

Checking Your Delivery

On delivery of your palletised goods, the driver will wait up to 10 minutes while you inspect the item(s).
Please check your goods before the driver leaves. If there is any damage or the driver refuses to wait, note this on the delivery slip (e.g., “Driver did not wait – damage unchecked”).
For any damage found, mark the delivery note clearly and contact us immediately.

Missed Deliveries

If you miss your pre-booked delivery, a re-delivery charge may apply.
For smaller items sent via courier (e.g., stove glass), the courier will leave a note with redelivery instructions if you’re not home.

Additional Delivery Notes

Accessory items like fitting kits and liner packs may be sent separately via courier on the same day. You’ll receive email confirmation if this is the case.
Delivery times are generally between 9am–6pm, Monday to Friday.
Delivery depots may send SMS updates, but these aren’t guaranteed.
