Kratki K12 Cast Iron Fireplace
The Kratki K12 cast iron fireplace is designed for homeowners looking for durable wood-fired heating in a compact freestanding format. Its cast iron construction provides strength and excellent thermal properties.
Cast iron is well suited to wood-burning fireplaces because it can withstand high operating temperatures and continues to radiate heat after the fire has reduced. The K12 combines this traditional material with modern closed-combustion technology for controlled and efficient wood burning.
The K12 is also part of Italfire’s range of cast iron fireplaces, giving homeowners a choice of freestanding and built-in wood-burning models in different heat outputs and designs.
