Hi All

We have a solid fuel stove but it takes too long to heat up can anyone recommend a pellet stove and provide a kw rating.

The room is 5 metre x 6 metre.

You won't get instant out of a pellet stove. Consider fitting an oil boiler with perhaps 2 suitably sized rads in this big room. Oil is more economical than pellets, cleaner and less time consuming and you'll have instant heat evenly distributed through out the room.
Leave stove in room as feature, focal point.
Ensure that attic, walls etc. are well insulated.
With stats, time clock etc. fitted all you need to worry about is having oil in tank !
