Looking for a Modern Freestanding Fireplace?

The Kratki Alta FS with Logbox Fireplace combines timeless European craftsmanship, efficient wood-burning technology, and minimalist design. If you’re searching for a premium freestanding fireplace that offers exceptional warmth and elegant style, the Alta FS is an outstanding investment for years of comfortable winter living.

Why Choose a Fireplace with a Logbox?

One of the standout features of the Kratki ALTA FS is its integrated logbox. Rather than storing firewood separately, the built-in log storage keeps your wood neatly organised and always within reach.

Its clean lines, large viewing window and minimalist styling complement open-plan living areas while providing dependable warmth during winter. Whether installed in a new home or as part of a renovation, it offers an attractive alternative to a traditional open fireplace.

Benefits of a Closed Combustion Fireplace

Unlike traditional open fireplaces, a closed combustion fireplace captures far more of the heat generated by burning wood. The sealed combustion chamber allows greater control over airflow, producing cleaner combustion, lower wood consumption and higher heating efficiency. This means more warmth stays inside your home while less heat escapes through the chimney. Modern closed combustion fireplaces like the Kratki ALTA FS are also easier to maintain thanks to advanced combustion systems and air-wash technology that helps keep the glass cleaner.

Is the Kratki ALTA FS Right for You?

This fireplace is ideal if you are looking for:

  • A modern designer fireplace
  • A freestanding wood-burning fireplace
  • Efficient home heating
  • Built-in wood storage
  • A large flame view
  • Lower wood consumption
  • Cleaner burning technology
  • A premium European steel fireplace

Built-In Wood Storage for Convenient Log Storage

The Kratki Alta FS features an integrated Logbox beneath the firebox, giving you a dedicated space for storing firewood. This built-in storage keeps logs close to the fireplace while helping maintain a clean and organised living space.

Instead of using a separate log basket or wood rack, firewood can be stacked directly beneath the fireplace. The result is a practical fireplace design that combines heating, storage and modern style in one unit.

The built-in wood storage also makes efficient use of the space beneath the firebox. Neatly stacked logs can become part of the fireplace’s overall appearance while remaining conveniently accessible when the fire needs to be replenished.

For homeowners looking for a wood burning fireplace with built-in wood storage, the Alta FS offers a practical solution without compromising its contemporary freestanding design.

FAQs

Is the Kratki ALTA FS a closed combustion fireplace?

Yes. The ALTA FS uses closed-combustion technology to produce more heat from every log while reducing wood consumption and improving efficiency compared with an open fireplace.

What is the advantage of the built-in logbox?

The integrated logbox keeps firewood neatly stored beneath the fireplace, making it easy to access while creating a clean, contemporary appearance.

Is a steel fireplace better than cast iron?

Steel fireplaces heat up more quickly, making them ideal when you want fast, responsive warmth. They also suit modern interiors with their sleek design, while cast iron fireplaces are known for retaining heat for longer after the fire has gone out.

Is the ALTA FS suitable for open-plan living areas?

Yes. Its efficient closed-combustion design makes it well suited to heating medium to large open-plan living spaces while providing a beautiful view of the flames.

Built to last Poland’s harsh winters. Manufactured with thick, high-quality steel.

The Alta has a modern glass door with black edging, providing a beautiful view of the flames.

Thanks to the specialised, air-wash glass cleaning system, the soot deposits on the fireplace glass are greatly reduced. In addition, the units come with a removable ash box for simple and easy cleaning.

The burn chambers of the Alta units are lined with Kratki’s signature ceramics. These thick, heat-intensifying ceramics offer the best thermal properties available offering a cleaner burn and maximum heat output.

Heat-intensifying ceramics

Ceramics have a far better lifespan and more heating potential than other inferior materials, such as vermiculite or fire bricks. For these reasons, Kratki has chosen to use ceramics inside their steel fireplace range.

Their signature ceramics are designed to reflect intense heat through the glass into the room. This is well-suited to South African homes where we look for the convenience of instant heating.
