Understanding Fireplace Certification in Australia 

In Australia and New Zealand, wood fireplaces must adhere to the Australian/New Zealand Standard for Domestic solid fuel burning appliances (AS/NZS2918:2018)[1]. This certification is crucial for several reasons: 

1. Environmental Protection: Certified wood fireplaces are required to meet strict emission standards, ensuring they are among the cleanest fireplaces in the world.

2. Safety Assurance: The certification process ensures that fireplaces are safe for use in homes when installed correctly.

Why Certification Matters 

1. Environmental Impact 

 Uncertified wood fireplaces can significantly contribute to air pollution. Certified fireplaces, like those offered by Sculpt Fireplace Collection, are designed to minimize emissions, helping to protect both indoor and outdoor air quality. 

 2. Safety Concerns 

Perhaps the most critical reason for choosing a certified fireplace is safety. Uncertified appliances may require larger hearths and greater clearances from combustible materials, potentially leading to serious safety hazards. 

 3. Choosing a Certified Fireplace 

When selecting a wood fireplace, always look for the AS/NZS2918:2018 certification. This ensures that your fireplace: 

– Meets strict emission standards 

– Is safe when installed correctly
