Ceramic Tile Refractory Fireplaces

A BioFire fireplace weighs anything between 800 and over 2.500kg. The weight very much depends on the amount of ceramic refractory bricks needed to store sufficient energy in order to radiate heat for an extended period of time. While some other fireplaces might have additional weight added to their metal fireboxes in the form of ceramics it is still not possible to provide sufficient radiant heat from a structure weighing in at 250kg.

The Patented BioFire Ceramic Refractory Brick

The patented BioFire refractory brick possesses several unique properties you will not find in any other masonry heater:

• High pressure moulded and burned at 1.450° C
• The added surface area facilitates long heat retention
• The composition allows some moisture from wood to be absorbed
• Integrated tongue and groove system ensures perfect adhesion

A BioFire refractory brick will look like new after 10 years of continuous use. Built once to last a lifetime.

Ceramic Masonry is Safer than Sheet Metal

A BioFire fireplace provides radiant heat from the ceramic refractory structure. As it is built in two layers so that the surface does not reach dangerous temperatures on the outside of the fireplace structure. This is unlike the metal fireplaces supplied by some of our competitors which shed the majority of their heat from the surface area of the fireplace. Ceramic masonry fireplaces are therefore safer and much more child friendly.
