DESIGNED FOR MODERN LIVING
Experience the Difference with Scandia External Air Wood Fires
Scandia wood fires – with optional External Air – combine design, engineering excellence and environmental responsibility; helping you create a comfortable, efficient home without compromise.
Why choose External Air?
Â
Modern homes are designed to be airtight and energy-efficient, often incorporating features like double glazing and other passive design principles. That’s great for energy savings, but it can impact the performance of your traditional wood fire.
How does External Air work?
Traditional wood fires draw air from inside your room. In sealed or well-insulated spaces, this may limit combustion, resulting in inefficient burning. Scandia’s External Air system delivers a dedicated supply of oxygen from outside, straight to the firebox – creating an efficient, consistent, cleaner fire regardless of your indoor air capacity.
BENEFITS OF EXTERNAL AIR
 |
Reduced Emissions When your wood fire does not get enough oxygen it will create more smoke, soot and pollutants. With External Air your fire is fed oxygen from outside at the right level for a hotter, even and more complete burn. This results in cleaner burning and therefore lower emissions. |
 |
Better Indoor Air Quality A traditional wood fire draws air from inside the room; this can pull in dust, smoke or cold draughts from cracks, floors and vents. With External Air, you will have no loss of internal oxygen or negative air pressure. Your home will be fresher with fewer draughts. |
 |
Improved Efficiency When wood burns properly, you get improved heat from each log. This results in burning less wood to heat the same space, saving money and effort. |
 |
Stops Draughts External Air prevents vacuum effects caused by traditional wood fires, with its own dedicated supply of oxygen External Air wood fires do not compete with the air inside your home. This results in consistent, even comfort without cold draughts. |
 |
Cleaner Burns External Air supply gives your fire a steady stream of oxygen, resulting in a more complete burn with less smoke and more flame. Giving you less ash, less smoke and a brighter more attractive fire. |
