MORE ABOUT THE 1200 DELUXE

Fresh coals, a potjie and a light for later.

Burn wood in the ember maker and rake fresh coals under the grid whenever the next round is ready. Hang a potjie for something slow and switch on the light as the sun goes down. Afterwards, the ash pan, ash drawer and ash disposal trap take care of the clean-up, and the top and bottom doors close it all away.

THE WHOLE FAMILY, ONE FIRE

Wors on the grid.
Lunch at the table.

Boerewors and chicken over the coals, one person on the tongs, another with the plate, and the kids already at the table. Built into a sunny back-yard wall, the 1200 Deluxe keeps the fire close to the family, from a quick lunch to a long, slow afternoon.

The wall, pergola, table, chairs, plants, food and drinks are not included. Plan the flue and clearances with an independent installer.

A LITTLE PRACTICAL THINKING

Keep the next round ready.

THE FIRE

Coals when you need them.

Burn wood in the ember maker and rake fresh coals under the grid whenever the fire needs them. Charcoal works too, so pick the fuel that suits the day.

THE GRID

Room for chops, wors and a potjie.

The cooking grid is 950 mm wide, with grid lifters to move it while it is hot. Hang a potjie from the potjie holder for something slow alongside the braai.

THE BODY

Solid steel, easy to keep smart.

The body is 3 mm mild steel with a high-heat black paint. Touch-up paint comes in the box for small marks, and the top and bottom doors close the braai when it is not in use.

GOOD TO KNOW

Plan your setup.

Read your instruction manual before you plan the installation.

Read the instruction manual

What is included?

The 1200 Deluxe braai in black, with top and bottom doors, a cooking grid and grid lifters, an ember maker, an ash pan, an ash drawer and an ash disposal trap, a potjie holder, a light fitting and a poker. Insulation material, touch-up paint, the guarantee certificate and the instruction manual come with it too. The flue pipe, collar and cowl are options on this page, sold separately.

Which fuel can I use?

Wood or charcoal. Burn wood in the ember maker and rake the fresh coals under the grid as you cook.

How much cooking space is there?

The cooking grid is 950 mm wide, and grid lifters come with it. Ask us for the grid depth if you need it, for example before you order a replacement grid. The potjie holder takes a potjie for something slow.

Is the flue included?

No. You can add a Homefires flue pipe, a collar and a cowl on this page: a rotating cowl or a fixed cowl, each with a slip-on base. A cowl helps keep rain out of the flue. Send a photo and measurements for a flue and configuration quote, and we will confirm the right parts for your setup.

Where does the flue connect?

At the neck on top of the gather. The gather rises 320 mm above the body, and the neck measures 500 × 350 mm on the outside. The inside of the chimney must be at least as big as the flue outlet opening, so have your installer measure the unit before building.

How tall must the chimney be?

At least 2.5 m. If the flue must be offset, keep the angle to 45 degrees or less and use brackets so the flue does not sag. Roofs differ, so ask us about your roof, and have an independent installer plan the route.

How much space do I need?

The body is 1,230 mm wide, 535 mm deep and 855 mm high, and the gather rises 320 mm above it. The front frame is 1,290 mm wide and 880 mm high. Opened, the lower door reaches 455 mm in front of the body. These are product dimensions, not a building opening. Have your installer check the actual unit and safe clearances.

How is it built in?

Leave a 20 mm expansion gap between the body and the brickwork at the sides and the back. Cover the sides, back and top with fibreglass insulation. Insulation material comes with the braai. Your installer must follow the installation manual that comes with the unit. Keep the finished brickwork from sticking out past the flange, so the top door can stay open.

Can it go indoors?

Yes. The 1200 Deluxe may be installed indoors or outdoors, following the installation instructions and with the right flue. Have an independent installer plan the flue and the safe clearances for your space.

How do I look after it?

Let the ash cool fully, then empty the ash pan and ash drawer. The ash pan measures 1,170 × 470 mm and is 160 mm high. Touch-up paint comes with the braai for small marks on the black finish, and the instruction manual covers care and maintenance.

What does the guarantee cover?

The firebox has a 15-year Homefires guarantee against faulty workmanship or material under normal use. Replaceable parts, rust, misuse, water leakage and incorrect installation are not covered. A guarantee certificate comes with the braai. Ask us for the full terms.

Can you help with my setup?

Yes. Send a photo and measurements for a product and flue configuration quote. Arrange installation with an independent installer.
