Description
The Nordflam Asti, also called the Asti EKO, is a traditional wood stove made for people who want honest, steady heat. It has a cast iron body, a big ceramic glass window and a secondary combustion system that gets more warmth out of every log while keeping smoke to a minimum.
Nordflam Asti Fireplace Features
Cast iron that keeps working
Cast iron is slow to heat and slow to cool. Once the Asti is up to temperature, it gives off an even warmth that carries on well after the flames settle, so the lounge stays comfortable without constant reloading.
Cleaner burn, less wood
Nordflam builds a secondary combustion cycle into its stoves. Extra air burns the gases that would normally go up the flue as smoke. That raises the heat output, lowers emissions and cuts the amount of wood you need over a winter. The Asti meets ECODESIGN requirements, so it is a responsible choice as well as a warm one.

Is the Asti right for your home?
Our listing gives a heating area of about 90 m², which covers most medium to large lounges and smaller open-plan spaces. High ceilings and large windows reduce that, so send us your room size and we will confirm. Compare it with other freestanding fireplaces if you need more or less heat.
Installation in Cape Town
Our team supplies and installs the Asti on a proper hearth with a 150 mm flue, a cowl that handles the Cape south-easter and roof flashing for winter rain. We handle the compliance certificate too. Read about our fireplace installation in Cape Town, or see the full Nordflam fireplace range.
Nordflam Asti FAQs
Is the Nordflam Asti cast iron or steel?
The Asti is a cast iron stove, which is why it holds heat so well. Cast iron is heavy, so our installers check your floor and hearth before fitting.
What does ECODESIGN mean for a fireplace?
It is a European standard for lower smoke and better efficiency. An ecodesign fireplace burns cleaner, so you get more heat, a clearer glass and less soot in the flue.
Can I burn briquettes in the Asti?
It is designed for wood. Ask our team before using other fuels, as the wrong fuel can damage the grate and glass.
