10kW Thermorossi Pellet Fireplace
The higher-output Popstar Metalcolor version provides a rated heat output of 2.4–9.6kW, while the firebox power is specified at 2.5–10.2kW.
This output range makes the Popstar suitable for medium-sized living spaces and larger areas where the building’s insulation and layout support the required heat demand. Thermorossi currently lists a general heating-area figure of 87m² for the Popstar Metalcolor.
Actual heating performance will depend on factors such as insulation, ceiling height, glazing, room layout and climate. The manufacturer’s heating-area figure should therefore be treated as a general guide rather than a guaranteed room-size calculation.
Modern Metalcolor Design
The Popstar Metalcolor features a steel Metalcolor casing with a contemporary, minimalist appearance. Its proportions make it suitable for modern interiors where a compact freestanding pellet fireplace is required.
The upper smoke outlet is integrated into the appliance and positioned symmetrically, allowing the flue connection to remain aligned with the fireplace. Thermorossi also provides an optional coaxial flue configuration for compatible installations.
Hermetically Sealed Pellet Fireplace
The Popstar Metalcolor uses hermetic technology, with combustion air supplied from outside when installed with the appropriate configuration.
This design can be particularly useful in well-sealed or energy-efficient homes because combustion air can be drawn from outside rather than relying entirely on air from the heated room. Installation requirements must always be confirmed against the manufacturer’s current technical documentation.
PelletPower Advanced® Self-Cleaning Burner
The Popstar Metalcolor is equipped with Thermorossi’s PelletPower Advanced® burner technology.
The burner is designed to improve combustion management while helping simplify cleaning. This allows the fireplace to combine automated pellet heating with a clear view of the flame and reduced routine intervention. Thermorossi identifies the PelletPower burner as one of the key features of the Popstar range.
The Advanced cleaning PELLETPOWER® has new, more precise and refined construction technique guarantees safety and emissions under control. With Pelletpower the ashes are removed at the sides and collected in the drawer, the burner ensures constant efficiency without interruption and no waste of fuel. Even more advanced and industrialized thanks to the Advanced Cleaning technology, built in super resistant Incoloy 800HT alloy, which can be inspected and removed by the user.
® Heat Exchanger
Heat from the combustion process is transferred through Thermorossi’s Thermocore® vertical tube heat exchanger.
The heat exchanger forms an important part of the appliance’s heat-transfer system, helping the Popstar achieve its published efficiency of up to 96.7%.
27kg Pellet Hopper
The Popstar Metalcolor has a 27kg pellet hopper, allowing a substantial quantity of pellets to be stored within the appliance.
Thermorossi specifies pellet consumption of approximately 0.5–2.1kg per hour, depending on the operating setting. Actual pellet consumption will vary according to the selected heat output, pellet quality and operating conditions.
The larger hopper reduces the frequency of manual refilling and makes pellet heating a convenient alternative to continually loading logs into a traditional wood-burning fireplace.
Programmable Pellet Heating
The Popstar Metalcolor includes a retractable programmable control panel and a weekly programming function. Up to three daily ignition periods can be programmed according to the manufacturer’s technical specifications.
This allows heating periods to be scheduled around your daily routine, while the Smart Info function provides additional information about the appliance’s operation.
Quiet Pellet Fireplace Operation
Thermorossi lists a sound level of approximately 36dB for the Popstar Metalcolor.
The fireplace also features natural convection and a deactivatable ventilation fan, giving homeowners greater flexibility in how heat is circulated within the room.
How Much Space Can the Popstar Metalcolor Heat?
Thermorossi currently lists a general heating-area figure of approximately 87m² for the Popstar Metalcolor.
Actual performance will depend on the home’s insulation, ceiling height, room configuration, glazing and climate. A professional heat-output assessment should therefore be considered when selecting a pellet fireplace for a specific home.
Thermorossi Popstar Metalcolor Installation
The Popstar Metalcolor requires professional installation with the correct flue, combustion-air supply and clearances.
The manufacturer specifies an 80mm smoke exhaust connection, with a compatible 125mm coaxial configuration available depending on the installation arrangement. The current installation manual should always be followed for flue routing, clearances, combustion air and other installation requirements.

Pellet fireplaces are friendly to the environment
These wood pellet Fireplaces have a computer system that ensures clean burning. This leads to a very low ash content and very low carbon emissions as they are CO2 neutral certified. The burnt pellets produce ash content of about 0.5 to 1 percent. The pellet fireplaces also emit very low toxic chemicals and smoke in comparison to gas, traditional fossil fuel stoves, or wood. Pellet fireplaces are not only environmentally friendly but also very affordable compared to other sources of energy.
