“It was a pleasure doing business with Paul and having the Terrabella team put up our shed. They were easy to deal with from start to finish, were happy and helpful; nothing was too much trouble. They worked efficiently with both time and materials, were experienced and knowledgeable and took pride in their work. The shed looks fabulous. With them having all the gear, we’ll have them back for other projects.”

STYLISH SENSATION
Open Fireplace Conversion
Upgradeyourexistingopenfireplace
The first Euro Fireplace to be tested to comply with the Australian standard was Andorra. It came in at 0.8grams which was a sensation in 2009, and even now Andorra is one of the lowest emission wood heaters available in Australia.
A traditional open fireplace has an efficiency of less than 10%. Historically, upgrading to a fan-forced heater was the primary option. However, these heaters have high kilowatt outputs, resulting in significant wood consumption and heat loss through the flue system. The intense radiant heat from the flue is often wasted within a brick chimney, making fan-forced heaters suboptimal for open fireplace inserts. Reach out to us to discuss your solution!
