Description
Tall, slim and built from heavy cast iron, the Plamen Gala Black is for people who want a modern fireplace that still heats like an old-school stove. Its big window gives a wide, panoramic view of the fire, and the solid tapered foot gives it a clean, sculpted look that suits contemporary homes.
Plamen Gala Black Cast Iron Fireplace Features
Cast iron that keeps radiating
The thick cast iron body warms the room through radiation and keeps doing so well after the last log has burned down. A thick baffle plate keeps more heat in the stove instead of sending it up the flue. The result is steady warmth and less wood used.
Three stages of combustion
Primary, secondary and tertiary air all feed the fire. Tertiary burn helps the Gala reach 82% efficiency and lowers emissions. Part of the secondary air runs down the glass as an airwash, keeping the window cleaner for longer.
Simple to control
A single air lever sets the burn rate, so you do not need to juggle several controls. A removable slide-out ash pan makes cleaning quick. The Gala carries an A+ energy class rating and is CE certified. A heat protective glove and a wood stoker come with it.
Gala or Aria?
The Gala and the Aria are the same stove inside. The Gala stands on a solid tapered foot, which gives it its slender, modern profile. It measures 40 x 45 x 98.1 cm, weighs about 108 kg and takes a 150 mm top flue.
Is the Plamen Gala right for your home?
Plamen rates it for about 77 to 106 m2, which suits a larger lounge or an open-plan living and dining area. If you are comparing every freestanding fireplace for sale in this size, the Gala stands out for its slim footprint. See more freestanding fireplaces and the full Plamen fireplace range.
