A fireplace that offers more

The s16-Z allows you to integrate a wood fireplace into the heart of your living space, even when space is limited. Thanks to its insulated enclosure and shallow depth, it can be installed without complex construction work and without visible convection grilles. A solution designed to bring your project to life, whether in new builds or renovations.

Power to match your space

The s16-Z delivers high heating output, capable of quickly warming large areas. It combines performance and efficiency for broad, comfortable heat.

Fire takes center stage

The s16-Z offers a wide view of the flames, among the most generous on the market for a fireplace compliant with the strictest environmental standards in North America. The flame display is striking, and the fire becomes a central element of everyday living space.

Sober. Elegant. Timeless.

Its clean lines fade into the background, giving way to the fire. With no visible handle, the opening is operated using a removable key. Convection is integrated around the perimeter of the unit, with no visible grilles to disrupt the design. A refined whole, designed to stand the test of time.

Certified performance

EPA-certified, the s16-Z emits less than 2 g/h of particulate matter. Its optimized combustion delivers both excellent heating performance and compliance with the highest environmental standards.

Innovative features ensure optimal operation of s16-Z

Integrated and silent convection

Heat is returned to the room through an opening located between the combustion chamber and the Stûv 16 casing. No fan is required, as convection occurs through natural gravity.

Integrated and silent convection

Connection to the outside air intake

An opening located beneath the appliance is specifically designed to connect an external air intake directly to the combustion chamber. The fire draws oxygen from outside the house, thereby ensuring optimal combustion.

Connection to the outside air intake

Mobile smoke deflector

A mobile smoke deflector opens and closes with the door on the Stûv 16. When the door is open, it allows smoke to escape, preventing backflow into the room. When the door is closed, the deflector slows the evacuation of smoke, promoting a second combustion of gases within the appliance.

Mobile smoke deflector

Safety spring

A small spring is positioned at the bottom of the door to ensure it closes when released. The door, when partially closed, creates an air-blowing effect on the flames that promotes combustion and prevents sparks or embers from falling onto the floor.

Safety spring

Double hook door

The hinged door of the Stûv 16 features two hooks to ensure its strength and further improve the airtightness of the combustion chamber.

When performance enhances the fire

When performance enhances the fire

When performance enhances the fire

  • 1

    The air required for combustion comes directly from under through an outside air intake connector specially designed for the s16-Z model.

  • 2

    Air injectors at the top of the combustion chamber allow for a second combustion of the gases, reducing fine particles emissions into the air.

  • 3

    Once the gases have burned, they are evacuated through the flue pipe.

  • 4

    The sweeping air flow removes dust from the glass due to combustion, providing a perfect view of the flames.

  • 5

    The air is taken from the room and heated by the unit, the convection air circulates along the combustion chamber and absorbs the heat.

  • 6

    The heated air comes out naturally from unit and distributes a comforting warmth into the room.

Exploiting simplicity

Exploiting simplicity

Exploiting simplicity

Simplicity is a key element during the creation of a unit. From aesthetics to function, installation to maintenance; every aspect is carefully thought out to eliminate the excessive in favour of the ideal.

This principle stems from a desire to manufacture timeless stoves and fireplaces that will meet the needs of several generations.
