All our standard wood burning fireplaces feature the following:

1. 7 gauge steel firebox, double welded inside and out.

– Thick steel is important for longevity

2. 1/4″ thick steel doors

3. Ceramic glass viewing area

– Lifetime warranty

– Radiates heat very well

4. Double latching door mechanism

– Secures the doors like a vault

5. Open Hearth Capability
– All our wood fireplaces can be operated with the doors open or removed completely
– Acucraft offers a firescreen option as well

5. Fibrex insulated panels

– A high temp mineral wool insulation that absorbs 1200° F of heat per inch of insulation. We use 4 inches for the top cap.

6. Use outside air for combustion
– With the doors closed, the fireplace use 100% outside air ( not room air )

– Extremely efficient

7. Air wash system
– Keeps the glass cleaner
– The air enters near the top of the glass doors traveling across the pane of glass to bottom of the view prior to entering combustion

8. Bottom and base of sides of the firebox are lined with real fire brick

– Evenly distributes heat across steel

9. Combustion air and flue damper controls
– Allows you to fully control the burn—up to 12 hours
– The combustion air control regulates the amount of heat the fireplace will produce
– The damper control regulates the burn time

10. Can have up to two water loops

– Supplement other hot water heating systems like radiant floor heat, base board heat and domestic hot water heaters.

11. Remote Ducting

– Provide heating to other rooms: directly or through your forced air furnace

12. Lifetime warranty

Each specific fireplace model offers different benefits, so whether you’re looking to heat your cabin during the freezing cold winters or provide a focal point without adding much heat—Acucraft likely offers a standard fireplace to fit your needs.

Some of the different options available:

—Smallest viewing area, high heating capacity (The Z-MAX)
– Perfect if you need a lot of heat but don’t want to take up a lot of space.

— Medium viewing area, medium heating capacity (The Hearthroom 36)
– A good option if you are not looking for a lot of heat

— Large viewing area, medium heat capacity (The Hearthroom 44)
– A great focal point without producing a lot heat

— Small viewing area, medium heating capacity (The Chalet Series)
– A small fireplace that still produces quite a bit of heat

— Medium viewing area, high heating capacity (The Great Room Series)
– Gives out a lot of heat and offers a substantial view

— Large viewing area, high heating capacity (The Lodge Series)
– Our largest standard fireplace

— We also offer a “High-Tech” version of the Chalet Series and the Great Room Series fireplaces.
– The viewing area dimensions of the fireplace do not change, but it increases the fireplace’s heat output due to the room air entering through a 14 tube heat exchanger in the top of the firebox and allows the single fireplace to heat up to 4,000 sq. ft. capable of 180,000 BTU’s

Above is a Hearthroom 44 See Through fireplace with rectangular doors.

Every fireplace, other than the Z-MAX, is available with the see through option and rectangular or arched doors. With a see through fireplace, no performance is lost—the fireplace can still heat the same amount of space and the BTU’s/Hr remain the same. This option allows direct heat to be transferred to two different rooms or provide a partial break within the same room (as seen in the photos above) and can even be installed as an indoor outdoor system (pictured below). Take a look at our post on Indoor Outdoor See-Through Fireplaces.
