Fuel efficient a range of contemporary wood-burning fires by Chazelles

Few experiences are as evocative as sitting by an open fire on a cold night, with the crackle of burning wood and the sight of dancing flames. While memories may be made of this, it is generally acknowledged that an open fire is one of the least efficient forms of heating.

Enter Chazelles Fireplaces, a French-based manufacturer with a growing reputation in Australia for its commitment to environmentally friendly, energy-efficient products, says managing director Henri Courant.

"Our products are manufactured to meet the very strict environmental requirements of the Flamme Verte, an EU-based charter energy rating system. Currently, Chazelles products achieve 4 out of 5 stars for energy efficiency and environmental and indoor air quality. By 2015, our target is for all Chazelles products to be upgraded to a 5-star rating.

"Research has played an important role in the evolution of Chazelles products. Through our ongoing research and development programme, our highly qualified engineers are continually improving the Chazelles range in key areas such as design, heating and clean air technology. This has resulted in fireplaces with improved power output to heat the whole house, improved energy efficiency, and reduced smoke emissions."

As a member of Landcare Australia and the Australian Home Heating Association, the company strictly adheres to all government rules and regulations for the manufacture and supply of home heating products throughout Australia.
