You love your open fireplace for its warmth and conviviality, but you surely know that 80% of the heat released by an open fireplace is lost...

Thanks to our heat recuperator, you can keep the pleasure of your open fireplace, but take full advantage of its calories and make substantial heating savings!

Easy to install:

1. Place the heating element on the specially designed Kit-deco or on your andirons.
2. Use the flexible metal sheath to connect it to the fan you've placed to the left or right of the fireplace.
3. That's all there is to it! You can start your fire; in ten minutes, the Equatair Classic will be pleasantly heating your room.

How it works:

The fan draws air from the room and sends it into the flexible duct, then into the heating element placed at the heart of the embers; the air absorbs maximum heat there and then diffuses it into your room

Efficient:

The air snakes for 1.70 meters through the hottest part of the chimney (750 to 850°C), then is vented directly into the room when it has reached its maximum temperature. Twenty minutes after lighting the fire, the air is already at 200°C, and can reach 350°C within an hour. As the air is dry, there's no risk of burns; the principle is the same as that of a hairdryer.

With its heat output of 7,000 Watts, the Equatair Classic can heat up to 230 m³. This ability to quickly achieve a pleasant room temperature is particularly appreciated in second homes, or for intermittent use of the fireplace (a few hours in the evening, for example).

The width of the heating element (50 cm) enables it to be fitted even in small fireplaces; in large ones, it corresponds to the effective width of the hearth (a one-meter log burns only 60 cm); a wider heating element would be less efficient

Economical:

Fan consumption is very low (35 W); moreover, to optimize the heat recuperator's performance, it's not necessary to maintain large flames; good embers suffice

Comfortable:

Blown through a single mouth, the air flows horizontally, then distributes itself harmoniously, giving an even temperature throughout the room. If you leave the doors open, the heat can spread to other rooms. The foam filter at the fan inlet prevents dust carbonization

Modular :

The heating element is reversible, and can be installed with the air inlet on either side. The same applies to the Kit-deco.

The small elbow allows you to bypass the chimney jamb, placing it between the flexible liner and the heater. At the heater outlet, the telescopic extension guides the air flow out of the fireplace for deep chimneys. Both accessories are supplied with the appliance.
