How it works

 The fireplace preheats the air to be more efficient, cold air is pulled into the bottom of the legs (sides) of the fire place. This air is then guided into a heating chamber, this chamber has two inlets to the fire place, the first one inlet is into the main combustion chamber and the second inlet is into the secondary combustion chamber. After the main combustion chamber smoke is vented into the secondary combustion chamber where hot air (oxygen from the heating chamber) is added to burn any remaining fuel. This is then vented threw the chimney. The whole process is controlled by a user operated flue which allows one to burn the fire very hot and very slow.

Quality

The BlackBird fireplace is made from a 4mm thick steel inner shell to ensure long life. we use Schott Robax ceramic glass because it is the market leading fireplace glass. We also use Stainless steel handles and fittings. Please compare these specs to our competitors.

Cast iron vs BlackBird

Cast iron fireplaces are designed to burn coal and wood, because of this they have a gird to sift the ash out of the combustion chamber. The grid allows the coal to burn without smothering itself but the grid also allows unheated air into the combustion chamber, this affects the draw of the fire and the efficiency of the fire.

Why we burn wood

BlackBird’s F1502 fireplace is optimised for burning wood.  This makes it burn wood more efficiently than cast iron fireplaces. We choose to burn wood because it is a renewable resource. BlackBird fireplaces preheat air before the combustion chamber to get better efficiencies during burning.
