Description
The Thorma Zaragoza is a tall, closed combustion fireplace from Thorma, a maker in Slovakia known for solid, honest stoves. Like every Thorma fireplace, it is built to burn efficiently with the door closed. At 6kW it is sized for smaller rooms, where a big stove would make the space too hot. It burns wood or brown coal briquettes, which gives you options when good firewood runs short.
Thorma Zaragoza Fireplace Features
Heat sized for real rooms
Many lounges in Cape Town homes are not huge, and a 6kW wood fireplace gives a comfortable warmth there without roasting you out. You can burn it at a steady rate, which keeps the glass cleaner and uses wood well.
Two fuel choices
The Zaragoza takes wood or brown coal briquettes. Briquettes burn longer and more evenly, which is handy late at night when you want the room to stay warm.
Tall, slim and neat
It measures 41.6 x 51 x 99.7 cm and weighs 91 kg. The tall shape gives a good view of the flames while keeping a small footprint on the hearth.
Is the Thorma Zaragoza right for your home?
As a rough guide, a 6kW fireplace heats about 40 to 60 m2 with a normal ceiling. High ceilings, open-plan layouts or large windows need more output. Send us your room size and we will confirm, or compare other freestanding fireplaces and the wider fireplace range.
Installation in Cape Town
Our team fits the Zaragoza with a 150 mm flue, a cowl suited to Cape wind and proper roof flashing for winter rain, and we handle compliance. Read about our fireplace installation in Cape Town or see the full Thorma range.
Thorma Zaragoza FAQs
Can the Zaragoza fire go in a bedroom?
Yes, as long as the room has an outside wall or roof route for the flue and the right clearances. At 6kW it is a sensible size for a main bedroom or a cosy study.
Which fuel lasts longer in the Zaragoza?
Brown coal briquettes usually give a longer, slower burn than wood. Wood lights faster and gives a livelier flame. Many owners light with wood and add briquettes later in the evening.
