Description
The Northern Flame Fuji is a small, solid cast iron stove for homeowners who want real heat without giving up half the lounge. It stands only 56 cm high, yet it puts out 8kW and loads 30 cm logs, so you get a long, steady burn from a unit that fits neatly into a corner or an old chimney opening.
Northern Flame Fuji Cast Iron Fireplace Features
Heat that stays in the room
It weighs 92.6 kg, almost all of it cast iron. Once warm, that mass keeps giving off heat long after the flames settle, so the room stays comfortable while you use less wood. The firebox is lined with cast iron firebricks, which protect the body and add to the stored heat.
Burns more than one fuel
As a multi fuel fireplace, the Fuji has a cast iron riddling grate and a removable ash pan. You can burn seasoned wood most of the time and switch to other solid fuel when good logs are scarce. Riddling the grate shakes the ash through, so the fire breathes well and cleaning is quick.
Clean glass and an overnight burn
Air from the lower door vents reaches the fire under the grate, while secondary air enters above the door and washes down the inside of the glass to keep it clearer for longer. Tight door seals and manual air controls let you turn the stove right down at night, then open the vents in the morning and bring the fire back to life.
Flexible flue position
The 125 mm flue can leave from the top or the rear. A rear exit is handy when the stove sits inside an existing fireplace opening, and the legs are removable if you want it lower. Northern Flame rates it at 75% efficiency.
Is the Northern Flame Fuji right for your home?
Northern Flame gives the Fuji a heating area of about 77 m2. That suits a medium lounge, a study or an open-plan cottage with a normal ceiling. Rooms with high ceilings or lots of glass need more output, so send us your floor size and we will confirm the fit. You can also compare it with our other freestanding fireplaces.
Installation in Cape Town
Our team supplies and fits the Fuji with the correct flue, cowl and roof flashing to handle Cape wind and winter rain, and we sort out the compliance certificate. Read about our fireplace installation in Cape Town, see the full Northern Flame fireplace range, or our Northern Flame buying guide.
Northern Flame Fuji FAQs
How long can the logs be in the Northern Flame Fuji?
The firebox comfortably takes logs of about 30 cm. Cutting them to that length lets you load the stove fully and close the door without the wood touching the glass, which keeps the burn even and the glass cleaner.
Can an 8kw fireplace stay alight overnight?
Yes, this one can. The airtight door seals and manual air vents let you close the stove down before bed. In the morning, open the air controls, add fuel and the embers usually catch again within minutes.
Does the Fuji come with any tools?
It ships with an ash pan tool for lifting out the ash pan and a heat glove for the door and air levers, plus the instruction manual from Northern Flame.
