Double Sided Fireplaces

A double sided fireplace, also called a see-through, two-sided or 2-way fireplace, shows the fire from both sides. One fire can warm two rooms, or sit as a feature between an open-plan lounge and dining area. Our range includes wood and gas models, freestanding or built in:

• Freestanding wood: double sided stoves from Forge Fires (D60 to D120), Heeta, Lacunza Verona, Chama Cristal, Flamm, Kratki and Northern Flame, with outputs from 11kW to 25kW.
• Built-in wood: double sided and tunnel inserts from Forge Fires, Heeta, Lacunza, Chama, Flamm and Kratki, from 12kW to 25kW, for a wall that opens between two spaces.

Frequently asked questions:

• What is a double sided fireplace? It has glass on two opposite sides, so the flames can be seen from both rooms. It is built into a wall between two spaces, or stands in an open area where it can be seen from both sides.
• Wood or gas? A wood model gives real flames and suits larger spaces, and needs a flue. A gas model lights at the touch of a button, and flueless gas models need no chimney. Our gas fireplaces run on standard LPG, and natural gas is quoted on request.
• How do I choose the right size? If the fireplace is open to two rooms, size it for the combined volume of both. Each product page lists the heat output, and most give a heating capacity in cubic metres.
• Do I need a flue? Wood models need a flue, so check the flue size on each product page. Flueless gas models need no chimney but do need ventilation.
• Do you install the fireplace? No. We supply the fireplace and can recommend installers. Gas connections must be done by a registered gas installer, in line with the manufacturer’s specifications and SANS regulations.
