Description
Big open-plan homes are hard to heat with a small stove, and that is where the Deville Betyle earns its place. It is a freestanding wood fireplace with a cast iron and steel body and a simple black finish, made to put out real warmth across a large floor area rather than just look pretty in the corner.
Deville Betyle Wood Fireplace Features
High output with room to adjust
The Betyle gives 14kW nominal, with a range of 9 to 18kW. Run it gently in autumn to take the chill off, then open it up when a Cape winter cold front arrives.
Efficient burning
At 82% efficiency, the Betyle turns more of each log into heat for the room. That means less wood bought, fewer loads and a cleaner burn.
Cast iron and steel build
The 113 kg body combines cast iron and steel for strength and good heat retention. It measures 42 x 92 x 83 cm, with a wide front that makes the fire a feature.
Top flue connection
The flue leaves from the top at 142.5 mm, which suits a straight run up through the ceiling and roof. The supplier lists the Betyle as Eco Design 2022 compliant and CE certified.
Is the Deville Betyle right for your home?
The supplier rates the Deville Betyle for 85 to 160 m², so it is for medium to large open-plan homes, double volume lounges and spaces with high ceilings. In a small lounge it will be too strong. Compare our other freestanding fireplaces if your room is smaller.
Installation in Cape Town
Our team supplies and installs the Betyle with the correct flue, cowl and roof flashing for Cape wind and winter rain, on a hearth that suits the weight, and we handle compliance. See how our fireplace installation in Cape Town works, or view the Deville range.
Betyle FAQs
How big a space can the Deville Betyle heat?
The supplier rates it at 85 to 160 m². Insulation, glass area and ceiling height change the real figure, so share your floor plan and we will check that it fits your home.
Does the Betyle need a chimney?
It needs a flue rather than a brick chimney. We run a flue from the top outlet through the ceiling and roof, or connect to an existing chimney where it is safe to do so.
