Eureka Nugget Wood Heater – Small but Mighty, Built to Cook & Heat
If you’re after a compact wood heater that punches above its weight, the Eureka Nugget Wood Heater is ready to surprise you. It’s not just a heater — it’s your go-to cooking companion, energy-saver, and winter comfort solution all in one.
This little unit brings warmth, style, and practicality to smaller homes or cabins. It’s ideal for tight spaces, off-grid living, and anyone who wants more from their fireplace than just heat.
Small Size, Big Heating Power
Don’t let the size fool you — the Eureka Nugget Wood Heater is designed to heat up to 120 square meters. With a peak output of 16kW, this unit warms smaller homes, studios, and off-grid cabins quickly and efficiently.
Perfect for open spaces where you want both function and simplicity without sacrificing warmth.
Cook, Simmer & Boil on Top
One of the standout features of the Eureka Nugget Wood Heater is the built-in cooktop shelf. That’s right — you can boil water, simmer stews, or fry an egg right on the unit.
Use either the front or back shelf, depending on the heat level you need. The closer you cook to the flue, the hotter it gets — giving you full control, even without power. This makes it an ideal solution for bush blocks, cabins, or emergency heat-and-cook needs during blackouts.
Built Tough with Aussie Steel
The Eureka Nugget Wood Heater is constructed with a heavy-duty 6mm steel firebox, folded and welded in three pieces for serious durability. The internal baffle plate is 8mm thick and replaceable — designed to take the brunt of the heat and extend your heater’s life.
Firebrick lining ensures better insulation and protects your firebox over time, which also helps maintain even burning and higher internal temps.
Longer Burns, Cleaner Glass
Enjoy overnight burn capacity thanks to a smart design that maximizes heat output while delivering long burn periods per load. The firebox fits logs up to 450mm long, so you’re not constantly feeding the fire.
It also features secondary air injection, enhancing combustion efficiency while reducing smoke and emissions. The result? Cleaner air and less creosote buildup — and best of all, cleaner glass during regular operation so you always have a cozy view of the fire.
Compact Footprint, Low Clearance
Despite its performance, the Eureka Nugget Wood Heater maintains low clearance, similar to more conventionally cased heaters. This means it’s easier to install in tighter rooms, giving you design flexibility in compact homes, off-grid cabins, or even large sheds.
Easy Maintenance & Long Life
Built for Aussie homes and real-world use, the Eureka Nugget Wood Heater is made to go the distance. The design allows for easy maintenance, including the replacement of the baffle plate and annual flue cleaning.
All key parts are robust and designed for long-term use, making it a heater that doesn’t just survive winter — it thrives in it.
