Salamander Hobbit SE DEFRA-Exempt Multifuel Stove – 4.1kW

Salamander Hobbit SE 4.1kW DEFRA-exempt multifuel stove

The Hobbit SE gives you the same compact cast-iron design and 4.1kW performance as the standard Hobbit, with specially configured air controls that make it suitable for burning wood in UK smoke control areas.

At only 302mm wide, it fits beautifully into small fireplaces, cabins, boats, shepherd’s huts and tiny homes. It is also a useful choice for older household chimneys because, unlike the standard Hobbit, the SE can be installed with either a 5-inch or 6-inch chimney liner.
