Three sided fireplace

A Three-sided fireplace, combines exceptional heating performance with one of the most dramatic flame displays available. Featuring glass on the front and both sides, these fireplaces provide an uninterrupted panoramic view of the fire, creating a beautiful centrepiece that enhances both modern and classic interiors.

Whether installed in a feature wall, open-plan living space or luxury home, a three-sided fireplace offers more than warmth. It becomes an architectural feature that adds atmosphere, visual interest and year-round appeal while providing efficient, reliable heating.

What Is a Three-Sided Fireplace?

A Three-sided fireplace has glass viewing panels on the front and both sides of the firebox. This design allows the flames to be enjoyed from several positions within the room, creating a sense of openness and making the fireplace visible throughout the living space.

Most modern fireplaces use closed combustion technology, which controls the combustion process through adjustable air inlets and a sealed firebox. This allows the fireplace to burn wood efficiently while transferring more heat into the room and reducing heat loss through the flue.

A 3-sided fireplace is ideal for homeowners looking for both exceptional performance and contemporary design.

• Room size
• Required heat output (kW)

• Fuel type (Gas, Wood or Pellet)
