The VlakVark is a new and unique fireplace concept in South Africa. Adapted and improved to suit South African conditions from a top selling Canadian design. Say “Goodbye” to all being huddled around a fireplace, spending R100’s on your gas refills for your patio area heaters, save R1000’s in electricity bills keeping your home, pub, shebeen or restaurant warm for family, friends, or customers this winter and for winters to come!!! It’s innovative design and construction ensures the heat is spread throughout the home, and just the smoke (No smoke will fill up the room!) and minimal heat leaves through the chimney, so little you can touch the chimney with your bare hands.
A little-known fact is that more than half of the potential heat energy of wood disappears up the chimney in the form of volatile gases, and our unique design ensures that all most all these combustible gases are burned up as well, meaning you use less wood with maximum efficiency!! Saves on wood costs, heats more efficiently. Its tubular and flat steel construction forms a heat exchanger, the tubes are heated and this causes the hot air to rise and escape via the top tubes. Cold air is sucked in the bottom of the tubes and convection process repeats itself, rapidly heating the room and surrounds!!
