Description
The Sentinel Ottawa Square 8 with log stand gives you a modern square stove on a raised base, with space underneath to keep a stack of dry logs. It is small enough for a tight hearth at 30 x 50 x 53 cm, yet the 8.4kW output means it heats a decent lounge without fuss.
Sentinel Ottawa Square 8 Features
- Log stand base: lifts the fire to a better viewing height and keeps wood handy, so you are not walking outside on a wet night.
- Multi fuel burning: burn wood or approved smokeless fuels on the removable cast iron grate.
- Tertiary clean burn: gases are burnt a second time in the firebox, which lifts efficiency to 79.60% and cuts the amount of fuel you use.
- Air wash system: pre-heated air runs down the inside of the glass to keep it cleaner for longer.
- Vermiculite lined firebox: holds heat in the fire chamber and takes logs of around 35 centimetres.
- Easy cleaning: a removable ash pan sits under the grate.
- Flexible flue: 127mm outlet from the top or the rear, built from cast iron and steel, weighing 85 kg.

Sentinel Ottawa Square 8 FAQs
How is the log stand version different from the standard model?
The fire chamber and output are the same. The log stand version sits on a raised base with storage space for wood, which lifts the flames higher and gives the stove more presence in the room.
Can this Ottawa fireplace burn coal?
It is a multi fuel fireplace, so it can burn wood and suitable smokeless fuels on its cast iron grate. We will talk you through the best fuel for your home and flue.
Can the flue go out the back?
Yes. The flue outlet can be at the top or the rear, which helps when the fireplace stands in front of an existing chimney breast or an outside wall.
