Enjoy the atmosphere and warmth of a soapstone fireplace.
Looking for a fireplace no-one else has? We can customise a soapstone fireplace to your wishes. We give you the solution you need. We make open-hearth fireplaces for the cosiest possible atmosphere and fireplaces with inserts for more heat. A soapstone fireplace can be adapted to any kind of insert. Inserts can be ordered from dealers. We can offer a traditional fireplace for your cabin, or fireplaces of clean-cut design for the modern home. A soapstone fireplace combined with a soapstone stove gives you the best of both worlds a cosy atmosphere and plenty of heat. If you require only a soapstone insert in the fireplace, we can offer ledges, columns or hearths in soapstone.
The chimney must be designed to suit the type of fireplace, or the type of fireplace must be adapted to the dimensions of the chimney.
With an open-hearth fireplace especially, it is important that there is a good supply of fresh air to the room. Laying a duct with an 8-10 cm diameter in the floor from the outer wall to the base of the fireplace, or fixing extra vents in the wall will achieve better combustion and avoid smoke blowing back into the room. It is just as important to have a chimney of the right dimensions, so that it has a big enough internal opening.
Solid soapstone fireplaces weigh between 800 and 2,000 kilos and need a foundation under the entire base.
