Description
Tall and narrow, the Invicta Aratos gives you real wood heat without eating up the floor. It is a cast iron stove made in France by Invicta, a foundry with deep roots in cast iron, and it pairs an upright, modern shape in anthracite with the kind of steady warmth only solid iron delivers.
Invicta Aratos Features
Efficient and clean
The Aratos is rated at 78% efficiency and complies with Eco Design 2022. It also carries the French Flamme Verte 7 star label. A post combustion system feeds warm air into the firebox to burn off gases, so less smoke leaves the flue and more heat stays in your lounge.
Clear view of the flames
A clean glass system washes air down the inside of the window. That keeps soot from building up, so you can enjoy the fire rather than scrub the glass.
Long, slow burning
On slow combustion it runs for up to 8 hours. Load it before bed and there is often a bed of embers in the morning, ready to catch with a fresh log.
Built to fit
The Aratos measures 46 x 53 x 105 cm and weighs 123 kg. The 150 mm flue leaves from the top, which keeps the flue run straight and tidy.
Is the Aratos stove right for your home?
Our spec sheet lists a heating area of 50 m², which matches a standard lounge or family room. As an 8kW wood stove it has some extra headroom for chilly, draughty rooms. For larger open plan spaces, compare other freestanding fireplaces or ask us to size your room.
Installation in Cape Town
Our team supplies and installs the Aratos with a 150 mm flue, a cowl that copes with the south easter and roof flashing that keeps winter rain out. We check hearth clearances and complete the compliance certificate. Find out more about our fireplace installation in Cape Town or see every Invicta fireplace in our Invicta range.
