Description
The Astra 18 fireplace is a powerhouse in a small package. Its compact size nonetheless leaves a grand impression in any space. This unit is lean in depth and narrow in width but can still accommodate 18-inch logs and heat areas up to 1,500 square feet. Fitting for homes with a small footprint, this high-efficiency wood-burning appliance is also the ideal solution as a rip and replace and for corner installations. Available in a classic or a transitional style finish, this versatile, bijou fireplace is sure to light up your senses and gracefully bring harmony, warmth and comfort into your home.
Key Features
REMOVABLE ASH LIP
Offering a layer of protection against ashes, this removable accessory can be attached below the door to prevent spills when the fireplace is opened.
PATENTED AUTOMATIC AIR CONTROL
This patented, user-friendly mechanism automatically reduces the amount of combustion air introduced during ignition to the desired burn rate setting. The result is a beautifully consistent fire burning to its full capacity.
REVERSIBLE CAST-IRON PANELS
Crafted with care, our heavy-duty cast iron panels are stamped with a brick pattern on one side and a flowing contemporary design on the other. These reversible panels provide a versatile design that is as beautiful as it is functional.
CHIMNEY SWEEPING CAP
Located on the baffle, this convenient feature allows for easy access of the chimney for maintenance and cleaning without having to remove any other components in the firebox.
UNIQUE DOOR OPERATION
Our finely crafted door handle has an ergonomic design and keeps the door shut by means of a latch for a secure operation.
PATENTED VARIABLE SECONDARY AIR CONTROL
A variable amount of secondary air is introduced into the firebox that mixes with the rising gases of the wood. The result is an appealing and unique arrangement of flames that prolongs combustion, increases efficiency and minimizes emissions.
INNOVATIVE BAFFLE DESIGN
Most EPA units have secondary air tubes that reduce the firebox height and require maintenance. Our unique design allows secondary air to enter through a perforated baffle offering an unimpeded view of the fire all while increasing the efficiency and combustion.
DUAL BLOWER SYSTEM (165 CFM)
The dual blower system helps distribute the convection heat more efficiently into the room. As the combustion progresses, the blowers automatically activate with the heat and can be set using the variable speed control.
HOT AIR SYSTEM
This option helps distribute warm air to different floors or areas as far as 25 feet away.
