ETHOS ARES
A SUPER EFFICIENT LOW EMISSION FIRE CAN BE BUILT IN TO EXISTING BRICK SURROUNDS OR ADD THE OPTIONAL ZERO-CLEARANCE KIT TO BUILD DIRECTLY INTO TIMBER FRAMING WITHOUT MASONRY
Nothing quite beats the clean lines and uncluttered look of an insert fire. No flue to look at, just an appliance on the wall surface. Clean, elegant and simple.
The Ares has all the intelligent combustion features, high output and and low fuel consumption of the freestanding models, with the benefit of discreet wall mounting.
Perfect if you have an existing open fire or log burner, the compact firebox design means there will be no trouble fitting into even the smallest open fireplaces, but don’t let the compact firebox size fool you. It can pump out a generous 14kW of heat, making it comparible to much larger rivals.
Add the extremely low emissions and high efficiency, and you’ll realise that you’re generating heat where other fires are just making smoke. Better for the environment, better for your wallet, and better for your home.
If you are building new, or renovating a home without an existing fireplace, just add in the optional Zero Clearance Kit to build your insert fire into timber framing and floors. The Ares gives maximum flexibility with minimum fuss, for the custom look you want.
Couple all this with the large entertaining viewing window, and the ability to choose from over 100 custom colours for the front facia and you have everything you need to stylishly heat your room.
HOW ONE FIRE CAN BE WARMER THAN ANOTHER
Ethos woodfires are unique in that they don’t draw their combustion air from the room being heated, or even from elsewhere in the dwelling.
Instead the EconAir Induction flue system is bi-directional, and draws all its combustion air from outside via the flue outer layer.
The patented Ethos system has numerous advantages:
- Eliminates cold drafts in the home
- No need to vent the room in modern airtight design buildings
- Incoming air is pre-heated by the exhaust gases to over 300°C creating greater combustion, higher efficiency and reduced emissions
- No backpressure and quieter operation in windy areas
- The fire burns brightly, for greater ambience
HOW THE ETHOS ECONAIR FLUE SYSTEM WORKS
Combustion air is drawn from outside the home, down the outer section of the flue system.
The incoming air is pre-heated by the hot exhaust gases travelling up the centre of the flue system to over 300°C before entering the firebox.
Using combustion air from outside keeps your warm air inside the home and eliminates the uncomfortable drafts often caused by conventional flue logburners.
The EconAir bi-directional flue system will not interfere with other ventilation devices in your home, like extractor fans, range hoods, and home ventilation systems, reducing smoke blow back into the room, and wind noise.
