Although the sheer beauty of the flames is seductive, most conventional fireplaces are ineffective when it comes to heating. In fact, some fireplaces draw heat out of a room. So how can your love of a good, roaring fire peacefully coexist with the need to keep your house warm? One word: TULIKIVI (TWO-lee-KEE-vee). In Finnish, it literally means "fire stone". In English, it translates into one of the world's most beautiful and efficient ways to heat your house.

Tulikivi fireplaces come in many beautiful designs that will enhance any decor from traditional to contemporary. Standard options - including mantelpieces, benches, bakeovens, and decorative serpentine or roughface stone - make it easy to customize any of the basic models to suit individual heating, cooking, and decorating needs. Heating capacity, which corresponds to the fireplace size, ranges from 750 square feet to almost 2,000 square feet. Choosing the right model depends on the size of the space you want to heat, how your house is insulated and laid out, as well as average seasonal temperatures in your region of the country.

Tulikivi fireplaces are manufactured in Finland. They have been tested both by the company's own laboratory and by well-known, independent testing facilities around the world. All of our fireplaces comform to international standards and quality norms. When it comes to testing, they even pass the strictest safety and environmental standards of the world, such as the UL/ULC, and are recommended by the Ecological Institute in Rosenheim. Tulikivi has also been awarded the ISO 9001 Quality Assurance Certificate.

In 2010, Tulikivi incorporated its patented whirlbox technology in all fireplace models.  The whirlbox is truly a remarkable innovation in which the combustion air that is introduced in the firebox mixes completely with the combustion gases.  This feature allows wood to burn more efficiently and cleanly and reduces emissions to a fraction of the world’s strictest standards. 

This new technology has virtually no impact on the fireplace appearance, however Tulikivi has changed the standard door color from black to gray, giving the fireplaces a more harmonic appearance.  Additionally, several fireplace models are available with new square doors for fireboxes and bake ovens.

 Contact us for more information on these changes and the many options that are available for customizing your Tulikivi!

 "Within the industry, Tulikivi is the leader in utilizing green technology.  The introduction of the whirlbox and the CE marking in the entire Tulikivi range is a clear example of this.  We are already designing for tomorrow – at full speed."
