FREESTANDING FIREPLACES | Wood Burning

Freestanding Wood Fireplaces

Our freestanding wood fireplaces come in three families: Slimline, Corner and Half Hex. Each one ships as a package with a 3.6 m flue (1 mild steel and 2 electro-galvanised sections) and an electro-galvanised turbo cowl. A double-storey installation usually needs an extra 2.4 m flue extension, but the flue length you need depends on your building, so confirm it with your installer.

Every fireplace has a sturdy fire basket with a loose-fitting fire grid that is easy and affordable to replace later, a damper to regulate air flow and an ash pan.

Which family suits your room?

  • Slimline: Flat-back unit for a straight wall. Convection along the sides.
  • Corner: Built to sit in a corner. Convection along the back.
  • Half Hex: a compact radiant fireplace, the most affordable family.

As a rough guide: 600 and 700 mm suit small rooms, 800 mm medium rooms and 1000 mm medium to larger open-plan rooms (not double-volume spaces). Heat output depends on the room, the wood and the installation, so treat this as a guide only.

Installation

Have a qualified installer assess the flue route and clearances before you buy. Inspect the fireplace and flue every year, more often in damp or coastal conditions. The long-term warranties above cover the external firebox only. See also the Location Guide and Maintenance Guide.
