What is a see-through fireplace?
A see-through fireplace — also known as a tunnel fireplace — is built into a partition wall with glass on both sides. You can see directly through the fire from one room to another. This creates depth, extra light, and an open feel. While a regular built-in fireplace has one front, a bio-ethanol see-through fireplace shares its ambiance with two rooms simultaneously.
Where do you place a see-through fireplace?
You install a see-through fireplace in a partition wall between two spaces, for example, between the living room and the hallway or kitchen. It also works well in a free-standing wall or a TV unit. Looking for more views? Check out the three-sided built-in fireplaces, the room divider fireplaces, or the complete range of bio-ethanol built-in fireplaces.
Without a chimney or gas connection
A bio-ethanol see-through fireplace burns on liquid biofuel and produces real flames. No smoke or soot is released, so you don't need a chimney or flue. This makes installation easy, even in new build or gas-free homes. Always ensure adequate ventilation during use and follow the provided instructions.
Custom-made and installation
Most see-through fireplaces are installed between fire-resistant materials. From a compact built-in size to a two-meter wide flame line: you choose the width that suits your wall, with transparent or tinted glass. If desired, we can custom-make an enclosure — also for projects by interior designers and architects.
