MORE ABOUT THE ALPINE 800

Glass round the fire.
A damper at hand.

Stack wood or anthracite on the basket grate and watch the flames through glass shields on three sides. The built-in damper helps you manage the fire, and the ash drawer below keeps the clean-up easy. Insulation material and touch-up paint come with it, so small marks on the black mild-steel finish are quick to put right.

Burn wood or anthracite only: Home Fires says coal and briquettes must not be used.

SLOW EVENINGS IN

A fire you can see from every chair.

The lamps are low, the logs are stacked and the fire glows behind its glass shields. Pull the couch a little closer, sink your feet into the rug and let a winter evening at home take its time. One more cup of coffee, one more chapter, one more log on the grate.

The flagstone floor, furniture, rug, lamps and décor are not included. Plan the hearth, flue and clearances with an independent installer.

A LITTLE PRACTICAL THINKING

Plan the hearth and flue early.

THE FUEL

Wood or anthracite only.

Burn wood or anthracite on the basket grate. Home Fires says coal and briquettes must not be used in this fireplace, so keep them out of the fire.

THE HEARTH

Give the fire some floor.

The Home Fires manual for open fireplaces asks for a hearth at least 350 mm in front and 200 mm at each side, and 1,000 mm between the fire and furniture or curtains.

THE FLUE

3.6 m of flue in the kit.

A 1.2 m and a 2.4 m pipe with one joining collar come with the fireplace. Keep the metal flue 200 mm from wooden roof trusses. Extra pipe and collars are options on this page.

Plan the fireplace and the flue stack together.

The fireplace is 930 mm high to the top of the hood outlet, and the 3.6 m flue stack goes on top of that. These are product dimensions, not a building opening, so have your installer check the actual unit, the hearth and safe clearances.

GOOD TO KNOW

Plan your setup.

Read your installation manual before you plan the hearth, the flue and the installation.

Read the instruction manual

What is included?

The Alpine 800 wall unit in black mild steel, with glass shields on three sides (in two sections), a built-in damper, a basket grate, a fire grid and an ash drawer. The kit adds 3.6 m of flue pipe (a 1.2 m and a 2.4 m pipe with one joining collar), an escutcheon plate, insulation material, touch-up paint and a guarantee certificate. Extra flue pipe and collars are options on this page.

Which fuel can I burn?

Wood or anthracite. Home Fires says coal and briquettes must not be used in this fireplace.

How much heat does it give?

Home Fires gives a heating volume of 120 m³ for the Alpine 800. That is the maker's room-volume guide, not a kW rating or a promise for your room: ceiling height, insulation and draughts all play a part. Ask us if you need a kW figure before you choose.

Is the flue included?

Yes, a 3.6 m stack: a 1.2 m and a 2.4 m pipe with one joining collar, plus the escutcheon plate. A taller roof can need more pipe, and extra flue pipe and collars are options on this page. Send a photo and measurements for a flue and configuration quote, and we confirm the cowl and any extra parts for your roof.

Where does the flue connect?

At the outlet on top of the hood, which measures 340 mm across the flats. The fireplace is 930 mm high to the top of that outlet. Keep the metal flue at least 200 mm from wooden roof trusses; the Home Fires manual explains the options when the space is tighter.

How much space do I need?

The base is 900 mm wide and 675 mm deep, and the fireplace is 930 mm high to the top of the hood outlet, with the 3.6 m flue stack above. The hood is 815 mm wide. These are product dimensions, not a building opening. Have your installer check the actual unit and safe clearances.

What hearth and clearances does it need?

The Home Fires manual for open fireplaces asks for a hearth that reaches at least 350 mm in front of the fireplace and 200 mm at each side, and 1,000 mm between the fire and furniture, curtains or anything else that can burn. Your independent installer confirms the final layout for your room.

Is it an open or a closed fireplace?

An open, vented fireplace. The fire sits behind glass shields on three sides, supplied in two sections, and the built-in damper helps you manage the fire.

How do I look after it?

Paint and maintain the fireplace regularly: the guarantee asks for it. Touch-up paint comes with the fireplace for small marks on the black finish. Empty the ash drawer only when the ash is cold.

What does the guarantee cover?

Home Fires guarantees the firebox for 15 years from purchase against faulty workmanship or material under normal use. Replaceable parts such as glass panels, grids, grates and ash pans are excluded, and so is rust from adverse conditions, no maintenance, misuse, water leakage or installation damage. Replacement installation and delivery costs are not covered.

Can you help with my setup?

Yes. Send a photo and measurements for a product and flue configuration quote. We do not install, so arrange installation with an independent installer.
