Description
For a large open-plan home, the Northern Flame Kenna 100 Double-sided Ledge gives you a wide, dramatic fire that can be enjoyed from two sides at once. At 15kW it is the most powerful model in the Kenna double-sided family, and its 100 cm body makes it a real feature piece. It is a strong pick for anyone looking for a modern fireplace design that also delivers serious heat.
Northern Flame Kenna 100 Double-sided Ledge Features
A wide, see-through fireplace
Large Schott Robax ceramic glass panels on the front and back turn the Kenna 100 into a see-through fireplace. Black borders around the glass give it a sharp, designer edge. The doors open from the right as standard and can be changed to open from the left during installation.
Heat for large spaces
This is a true 15kW fireplace. The nominal output is 15kW with a rated efficiency of 77%. Inside, vermiculite panels reflect heat back into the fire for a hotter, cleaner burn, and they shield the steel body so it lasts longer.
Size and flue
The Kenna 100 measures 57 x 100 x 57.6 cm and weighs 175 kg. It takes a 180 mm flue from a top outlet, which gives a strong, reliable draw for a fire of this size. The ledge base lifts the fire to a comfortable viewing height, so you can enjoy the flames from a couch on either side without the unit feeling bulky in the room.
Is the Kenna 100 right for your home?
Northern Flame rates the heating area at about 145 m2. That makes it a good fit for a big open-plan lounge, dining and kitchen area, or for dividing two large living spaces. It is too powerful for a small room. Our guide to heating two rooms with one double-sided fire explains how to plan the position, and you can compare it with the rest of our double-sided fireplaces.
Installation in Cape Town
A unit this size needs careful planning. Our team supplies and installs the Kenna 100 with the correct 180 mm flue, cowl and flashing for Cape wind and winter rain, and we deliver the compliance certificate when the job is done. See our fireplace installation page and the full Northern Flame range.
Kenna 100 FAQs
What is the difference between the Kenna 82 and the Kenna 100?
The Kenna 100 is wider and stronger. It is 100 cm wide with a 15kW output and a rated heating area of about 145 m2, while the Kenna 82 is narrower, with a lower output and a smaller rated heating area. Both have glass on two sides.
What should I burn in the Kenna 100?
Burn only dry, seasoned hardwood that has been stored under cover for at least a season. Dry wood burns hotter, keeps both glass panels cleaner and leaves less soot in the flue. Avoid treated timber, pallets and painted offcuts, which give off harmful fumes.
Will the floor take a 175 kg fireplace?
A normal concrete slab handles it easily. On a suspended wooden floor we check the structure and may add support under the hearth before installation.
