Which fire and fireplace are right for you?

Which fire and fireplace are right for you? Fire is more than just warmth – it creates atmosphere, comfort and becomes a central element in the living space. Find out which type of fire best suits your lifestyle – each variant offers individual advantages.

Wood, gas, bioethanol or electro – the differences

Wood, gas, bioethanol or electricity – the differences Every fire has its own character, and choosing the right fuel depends on your preferences and living conditions.

  • Wood fires – traditional, authentic and sustainable. The blazing flames of a stove or fireplace provide cosy warmth and a genuine fireplace feeling. They are the heart of the fire and create a unique, lively atmosphere. Attika wood-burning fireplaces also impress with the ADVANCED GLASS CONCEPT©, which ensures a particularly clear view of the fire, lower wood consumption and optimum energy efficiency. A wood fire requires some preparation – sourcing, storing and replenishing the wood is just as much a part of this as disposing of the ash. For many, it is precisely this ritual that is an integral part of the experience.

 

  • Gas fires – convenient, clean and controllable. A gas fireplace delivers impressive flames at the touch of a button – without the need to store wood or dispose of ashes. Modern gas fireplaces offer a particularly realistic view of the flames and can be conveniently controlled via remote control or app. Depending on the model, the gas fireplace can also be integrated into a home automation system. Attika gas fireplaces can be operated with natural gas, biogas or liquid gas – depending on the connection options and personal preference. All variants provide an atmospheric fire experience with a high level of operating convenience.
  • Bioethanol fires – decorative and flexible. A stylish solution for anyone who wants to enjoy an atmospheric fire – without a flue connection (please observe country-specific regulations). Bioethanol fireplaces are particularly versatile and can be integrated into a wide variety of living situations. The flames appear calm, elegant and natural – perfect as an atmospheric addition to urban spaces or design-oriented environments.

 

  • Electric fires – safe, innovative and versatile. Electric or effect fires offer a convincing alternative for anyone who wants to do without a real fire. Depending on the technology, they create a deceptively real flame illusion without any combustion.
    Electric fires with steam technology use rising cold water mist in combination with LED light to create a calm and natural view of the flames. The ‘flames’ move freely with the air in the room and are completely odourless and emission-free. Alternatively, devices with holographic screen technology offer an impressive fire experience: glowing wood logs, flickering light, floating sparks and dynamic flames – individually adjustable in intensity, height and flame pattern selection, conveniently controllable via remote control. Whether with steam or a screen, modern electric fires offer fascinating fire worlds without the need for a flue pipe, opening up maximum design freedom for a wide variety of room concepts.

Fireplaces: freestanding or built-in?

The choice of the right fireplace depends on your personal preferences and the structural conditions. Is a flue pipe connection already available? Is an existing open fireplace being renovated or should a completely new solution be integrated? Fireplaces: freestanding or built-in?

A free-standing stove offers flexibility in terms of placement and is available in different versions – from compact models to designs that dominate the room. Different forms, colours and handle variants enable harmonious coordination with the living space with the help of our customized concept. Here too, professional connection to the chimney is required.

A built-in fireplace is integrated into the architecture and creates an elegant, individual living environment. Depending on the room concept, you can choose between different models and dimensions: fireplaces are available with front, two- or three-sided glazing, as well as tunnel or room divider models – for a fire experience with exceptional depth and perspective.

Operating & comfort – what suits your everyday life?

Each type of fire has different requirements and possibilities. A wood fire takes time and attention: it needs to be lit, regularly stoked and the ashes disposed of – ideal for those who consciously experience fire and appreciate the ritual.


Gas, bioethanol and electric fires, on the other hand, can be conveniently switched on and off at the touch of a button or via an app. They are particularly suitable for anyone who values uncomplicated operating and flexible use. Depending on the system, integration into a home automation system is also possible.


Whether consciously celebrated or staged at the touch of a button – you will find the fireplace that suits your everyday life with us.

Safety – enjoying a fire with peace of mind

Modern fireplaces meet the highest safety standards – regardless of the fuel used. Whether wood, gas, bioethanol or electricity: the technology is mature and designed for reliable operation. Professional planning and installation are important, as is correct handling in everyday use. This allows you to enjoy the fire to the fullest without any worries.

Installation – individually planned for your home

The installation requirements vary depending on the fireplace and the installation situation. A freestanding stove can usually be easily integrated into existing rooms – provided that a flue pipe connection is available. Built-in fireplaces and gas fireplaces require careful planning and coordination with the structural conditions. Electric fires do not require a flue pipe and therefore offer more flexibility – whether freestanding or as a permanently integrated design element. Planning and installation should always be carried out by a dealer to ensure safe and professional implementation.
