Charnwood C4 Wood Burning Fireplace
The Charnwood C4 is a compact wood burning fireplace designed for smaller rooms and living spaces. Its classic styling, large viewing window and choice of finishes make the C4 suitable for both contemporary and traditional South African interiors.
As the smallest model in Charnwood’s C-Series, the C4 combines a compact footprint with a 5 kW nominal heat output and a maximum output of 5.5 kW. The C Four’s diminutive proportions make it a popular choice for smaller spaces and it is our best selling 5KW Charnwood fireplace in South Africa.
The C4 wood burning fireplace comes with plenty of optional extras to give you the look to suit your space. For example, some of the options available include a store stand option (as featured in the main picture), high legs and 8 colours. The heat proof wooden handle also gives the C range of stoves from Charnwood a classic and unique appeal. The C Four is available in a choice of 8 colours making it a versatile stove to suit your room décor.
The C4 is also available in a ‘Clear Skies’ approved Eco-Design ready version which means it is playing a part to reduce particulate emissions produced by solid fuel heating appliances.
5 kW Wood Burning Stove
The Charnwood C4 has a 4.9 kW rated output, with a heat output range of 2–5.5 kW.
Suitable for spaces of up to approximately 135 m³.
