Description
A wide, built-in fire that heats a big room properly: that is the job of the Sentinel Ottawa Marvic 950 built-in. This single sided fireplace has a broad 95 cm front, so the flames stretch across the wall like a long window. Behind it is a steel firebox that delivers 15kW, enough for a large lounge or open-plan home.
Sentinel Ottawa Marvic 950 Built-in Features
A wide front that fills the wall
The single sided design focuses all the attention, and all the heat, on one room. The wide front gives a grand flame picture that suits a feature wall in a modern lounge.
Big heat, efficient burn
The Marvic 950 puts out 15kW and our spec sheet lists 80 percent efficiency. That means more warmth from every log and less heat lost up the flue than an open hearth. It connects to a 150 mm flue at the top.
Built in for a clean look
The unit measures 53.5 x 95 x 48 cm and is designed to be inserted into a wall or chimney breast with a frame, so only the glass front shows. You can also use the same model freestanding if your layout changes.
Is the Marvic 950 right for your home?
Sentinel rates it for about 144 m2, so this 15kW fireplace suits large lounges, double-volume rooms and open-plan living areas. In a smaller room it will run too hot. Compare other options in our built-in fireplaces range or the full Sentinel fireplace collection.
Installation in Cape Town
A built-in wood fireplace needs proper planning: a non-combustible surround, the right clearances and a straight 150 mm flue. Our team designs and builds the surround, fits the flue, cowl and flashing for Cape wind and rain, and handles compliance. See our built-in fireplace design and cladding in Cape Town.
Marvic 950 FAQs
What is the difference between this and the Marvic 950 Tunnel?
This model is single sided, with glass only on the front, so all the heat goes into one room. The Tunnel has glass on both sides and suits a dividing wall between two spaces.
Can the Sentinel Ottawa Marvic 950 be used freestanding?
Yes, it can stand freestanding or be inserted into a wall with a frame. Most of our clients choose the built-in look for a cleaner finish, and we plan the surround to suit.
