Keeping Warm this Winter

In the course of human history, there are some discoveries that have left an indelible mark on our psyche. Fire has had, perhaps, the most important impact on the success of our species and remains an intrinsic part of our lives.


This past dependence upon fire to keep us warm, cook our food and protect us in the dark explains why so many of us prefer the look of an open fire when myriad other heating options are available in these modern times.


“We experience a nostalgic comfort when we regard an open fire,” says Henri Courant, Managing Director of Chazelles Fireplaces. “Now technology has improved the open fire to the point where we can include energy-efficiency among its traits.”


Fireplaces by Chazelles incorporate a sealed firebox, which makes the fire burn more efficiently and allows more heat to radiate into the room. This heat can also be sent into other rooms via a thermostatic fan and optional ducting.


“As an additional feature, the glass door on each fireplace not only opens outwards to admit fuel, it also slides up out of sight to create an open fireplace,” says Courant. “This feature allows people to enjoy the natural beauty and atmosphere of a traditional fire.”
