Description
Built for big living areas, the Carbel A-85 double glazing fireplace pairs a 13kW output with a double-glazed door. Double glazing keeps more heat inside the firebox for a cleaner burn, while the wide glass gives a full view of the flames. This version is supplied with Termatek, ready for a built-in finish.
Carbel A-85 Built-In Fireplace Features
Double glazing
With two layers of glass, the outer pane runs cooler and the fire inside stays hotter. That helps the wood burn more completely and keeps soot down, which is good for the view and for efficiency.
Strong heat for large rooms
The A-85 puts out 13kW at a rated 75% efficiency, so a big lounge warms up quickly and stays warm. It burns wood and connects to a 150 mm flue through a top outlet.
Solid mild steel build
The mild steel body measures 83.5 x 55 x 43.5 cm and weighs about 200 kg, in an anthracite grey finish. The solid build suits a cladded feature wall or a chimney breast.
Is the Carbel A-85 right for your home?
Carbel rates it to heat about 125 m², which suits a large lounge, an open-plan living area or a room with a high ceiling. In a smaller room a lower output may be better, so compare it with our other built-in fireplaces or the wider fireplaces range.
Installation in Cape Town
Our team handles the full job through our built-in fireplace design and cladding service: the opening, surround and the 150 mm flue with a cowl and flashing for Cape wind and winter rain. We take care of compliance too. See more from the Carbel range.
A-85 Double Glazing FAQs
What does double glazing do on a fireplace?
Two panes of glass hold more heat in the firebox. The fire burns hotter and cleaner, the glass stays clearer and the outer pane is a little cooler, which is handy in a busy family room.
How big a room will the A 85 heat?
Carbel rates it at about 125 m². Ceiling height, windows and insulation all affect this, so we check your room before you order.
