Photos and Inspirations for Compact Stoves with a Strong Aesthetic Impact
Perfect for apartments, but not only, small pellet stoves are a winning solution in many situations. Here, we present a curated selection of the best models, complete with photos and useful tips.
SMALL AND COMPACT STOVES, IDEAL FOR EXISTING FIREPLACES
The most popular type of small stoves are those 80 and 90 cm high. These are compact models, typically with a power output of no more than 8 kW and a pellet tank of limited size. Simply put, these stoves are not suitable for heating particularly large rooms or for long-lasting use.
However, they are the perfect choice in the following cases:
- If you only need to heat a single room or a small basement;
- If you want a non-intrusive and elegantly designed piece in your home;
- If you want to make use of the space left by an old, unused fireplace: this is a popular solution in England and Nordic countries; a stove is placed in the fireplace recess and connected to the existing chimney flue.
Examples, Photos, and Models of Small Stoves
Below, you'll find some model suggestions and installation examples to inspire and guide your choice.

This photo was taken at the home of interior designer Alessandra Monti, in Blessagno (Como). Alessandra chose this model for its perfect dimensions to fit the niche where an old ceramic wood stove previously stood. Discover the project details here.
The living room in the photo belongs to the extension of an old Breton house designed by architect Tristan Brisard. Thanks to perfect insulation and the application of bio-architecture principles, this space is heated exclusively by a small pellet stove.
The photo above was taken in a design studio. The partners decided to opt for a more eco-friendly heating system, and the large open space is heated by two small stoves, which not only provide warmth but also create atmosphere and comfort. You can find more details about the project here.
