BACK FROM THE MOUNTAIN
Warm mugs, warm hands, a fire for all.
Boots still on and mugs in hand, there is a seat by the fire for everyone. The eight-sided Alpine 800 stands free in the room, with glass around the flames, so the fire is the heart of the lounge while the afternoon light fades over the peaks.
The timber room, stone floor, furniture, rugs and décor are not included. Plan the hearth, flue height and clearances with an independent installer.
A LITTLE PRACTICAL THINKING
Fire, flue and cowl, ready to plan.

GOOD TO KNOW
Plan your setup.
Read your instruction manual before you plan the installation.
What is included?
The Alpine 800 in black mild steel, with glass shielding, a fire grate, a fire grid, an ash drawer and a built-in damper. The flue kit comes with it too: a 3.6 m flue pipe with a joining collar, an escutcheon plate, a slip-on cowl base and a rotating cowl top. Insulation material, touch-up paint and a guarantee certificate are in the box.
Which fuel does it burn?
Wood or anthracite. Do not burn coal or briquettes in it. Build the fire on the fire grate and use the built-in damper to manage it.
How much heat does it give?
HomeFires gives a heating volume of 150 m³ for the Alpine 800. We do not have a heat output rating for this model, so send us your room size and we will check it with you before you order.
Is the flue included?
Yes. A 3.6 m flue pipe, supplied as a 1.2 m and a 2.4 m length with one joining collar, comes with the fireplace, with an escutcheon plate, a slip-on cowl base and a rotating cowl top. It connects at the octagonal outlet, 340 mm across the flats. For a taller flue, add extra flue pipe and collars on this page.
How much space does it need?
The base is 920 mm wide and 920 mm deep, and the fireplace is 965 mm high without the flue: a 310 mm base, a 330 mm fire opening and a 325 mm hood. The hood is 815 mm wide. Keep furniture, curtains and other combustibles at least 1,000 mm away. Your installer confirms the clearances for your room.
What hearth does it need?
Extend the hearth at least 350 mm in front of the fireplace and at least 200 mm at the sides. Your independent installer confirms the hearth for your floor.
How close can the flue be to the roof timbers?
Keep the metal flue at least 200 mm from wood trusses. Your installer plans the route through the ceiling and roof; the manual has the full instructions.
Is there glass around the fire?
Yes. Glass shielding comes with the fireplace, so you can watch the flames while the fire burns. If you need the exact panel layout before you order, ask us and we will confirm it with HomeFires.
What does the guarantee cover?
HomeFires guarantees the firebox for 15 years from purchase against faulty workmanship or material, under normal use. Replaceable parts such as the glass, grids, grates and ash pans are not covered, and neither is rust from adverse conditions or no maintenance, misuse, water leakage or installation damage. Ask us for the full terms.
How do I look after it?
Paint and maintain the fireplace regularly, as the guarantee asks; touch-up paint comes with it. Empty the ash drawer once the ash is cold.
Can you help with my setup?
Yes. Send a photo, your room measurements and roof details for a product and flue configuration quote. We do not install, so arrange installation with an independent installer.
