OUTDOOR AIR KITS & WHY YOU NEED ONE

Posted on August 15th, 2022 by marketing@638.191.myftpupload.com

What is an outdoor air kit?

Outdoor air kits is an optional extra for many wood heaters such as the Sculpt Seguin range that brings a continuous stream of fresh air from outside directly to your inbuilt OR freestanding wood heater.

Whilst an outdoor air kit is not always required for every build, they are highly recommended. This is because newly built houses these days are often under much stricter energy and insulation regulations meaning houses are being built to almost airtight conditions. To overcome this, outdoor air kits are becoming a regular solution by making use of fresh air from outside your house in the combustion of a fire as opposed to the ambient air from inside the room. As these kits directly connect the fireplace to outside, fireplaces using this technology operate in a closed circuit.

To answer to those new requirements, a large range of Seguin stoves and fireboxes offer the possibility to not use the ambient air of the room for the combustion. The appliances directly take the fresh air from the outside, through a sheath directly connected to the outside or a double-flow flue.

What are the advantages?

If you’re building a 6 star and above home, but want the warmth and ambience of a woodfire, an outdoor air kit is encouraged. By taking in air from outside and not the room, this will result in a warmer home. Outdoor air kits also ensure that your wood burning heater receives sufficient air for the unit to work to its best ability.

Sculpt Fireplace Collection

 

 

“Organic in its creation and handcrafted by a passion for natural-born beauty, this bespoke beachside home unveils a stunning and unique architectural style”

 

 

Striking yet exquisitely elegant, featuring high arches and curves, cathedral ceilings, organic earthy colours and handcrafted finishes this brand new luxury home was created. While a northern orientation brings sunlight pouring in to complete the natural vibe in this sensational home.

Welcomed by a long tree-lined driveway with an auto gate and surrounded by gardens designed by a horticulturalist, the inside offers outstanding individuality including a lime wash colour scheme, exposed concrete, Wild River timber flooring and a spectacular kitchen crowned with a giant arched window. Across a breezeway, the fully lined garage cleverly doubles as a rumpus studio that can be used for your private yoga sessions or a deluxe space to work from home complete with a kitchenette, while semi-attached guest accommodation includes a sumptuous bedroom and ensuite with the same luxurious finishes at the rest of the home.

Sculpt Fireplace Collection were thrilled to be featured within this spectacular home with our gorgeous Seguin Europa 7, being a prominent feature in the main living space. Contemporary meets classic with the Seguin Europa 7 Cheminee Fireplace with swing door mechanism. This beautifully crafted pure cast iron wood fire can be installed as a built-in or freestanding fireplace. Hand made in France, the undeniable quality of the Seguin Europa 7 Cheminee Fireplace will also aim to please aesthetically and burn effectively.

Based in the heart of Auvergne, France, Seguin Duteriez fireplaces are renowned for producing some of Europe’s most revolutionary and sought-after range of elite fireplace products for over 30 years. Artisan engineered and with the use of exclusive materials, Seguin fireplaces are manufactured with 100% pure cast iron and are highly regarded for their durability and increased heating output.

Unique to majority of Seguin wood fireplaces is the use of DAFS (Double Air Flow System) technology. The aim is to inject oxygen at a determined level inside of the combustion chamber. The supply of new oxygen will burn the gases and smoke that has not yet been burnt and prevent them from being released into the flue system. The advantages of this; a longer fire term, cleaner glass, also total combustion of the fire wood.

These cast iron Cheminee Fireplaces are well known for their heat retention even after the fire has dissipated, allowing for a longer lasting heat well into those colder nights. All Seguin cast iron fireboxes come with a damper, air washsystem, fire grate and ash pan as standard and thanks to the choice of high quality raw material Seguin cast iron Cheminee Fireboxes are guaranteed for 10 years.

This project combines beautifully neutral tones with statement features for an incredible finish, Sculpt are proud to be part of!

The Local Project x Park View House

Posted on October 11th, 2021 by marketing@638.191.myftpupload.com

The Local Project x Park View House

A home previously bearing the name the ‘ugly duckling’ was transformed and lovingly re-named “Parkview House” after 8 months of hard work.  

The original plans were to renovate the circa 1950’s Art Deco home, however the owners and designer of this Thornbury, VIC home quickly discovered that the house was originally build with weatherboard. Adding to the drama, the facade was bricked over with an extremely questionable backyard extension, so the team pivoted and decided to work with an architect, an interior designer and a builder collaboratively, to design a new home which would look like it was never out of place!

Owners worked alongside Elevate Building Group to complete this stunning transformation project; James Hardie Linear Cement Sheeting was used instead of timber for the weatherboard cladding, installing a Delos 3-stage Whole Home Water Filtration System that filters all water coming into the home, installing a Tesla Wall Car Charger, double glazing throughout with skylights through our bathrooms. Design was completed with the amazing work from Shaynna Blaze and Allie Harris, alongside Build Her Collective; an empowering online course for women about home renovating, design and styling! 

The use of lots of natural light in the hallway and open plan kitchen/living/dining area made it the perfect place to feature the Sculpt Fireplace Collection Seguin Axis i1000 Freestanding Single Sided fireplace. Axis fireplaces specialise in the manufacturing of designer wood fireplaces in a variety of different styles, shapes and sizes.

Handmade in the Rhone Alps region of France, the Axis i1000FS Single Sided wood fireplace is a display of geometric versatility and artisan engineered construction. The wood fireplace exudes a mesmerising display of flames and unsurpassed design excellence. With a heating capacity of up to 300m2 and an average efficiency of 66%, this unit is sure to stun in any space! 

Fitted with industry leading innovation such as DAFS (Double Air Flow System), this technology works by injecting oxygen at a determined level inside of the combustion chamber. The supply of new oxygen will burn the gases and smoke that has not yet been burnt and prevent them from being released into the flu system. The additional self-washing glass system feature provides less CO2 emissions, creating longer fire term/burn time, cleaner glass and bricks and total combustion of the firewood. 

This project combines a seamless blend between stylish aesthetic and comfortable functionality, creating a family home providing light-filled sophistication, innovative finishes and thoughtful entertaining options. An exquisite project Sculpt Fireplace Collection were proud to be a part of.
