Lacunza Garde has a rounded steel body with cast iron details and glass on both the front and sides. The fire can therefore be seen from more angles than with a standard front-glass fireplace, making the model interesting when seating is available on several sides of the fireplace.
The internal vermiculite lining surrounds the firebox, with grates and ash pan included. The fireplace's air control is centralized in one control. External combustion air can be connected, while double combustion and air flushing along the glass help with the burning. The rounded shape makes the placement of the glass an important part of both the expression and the use.
Choose Garde if you want to see the fire from several directions but prefer a freestanding fireplace over a built-in insert. Check the safety distances for the side glass, floor protection, and chimney connection according to the model's installation instructions.
Placement with glass on three sides
The Lacunza Garde has glass on the front and both sides. Therefore, plan the furniture arrangement, passage, and floor protection based on the heat radiation even from the side glass. Follow the model's installation manual for the distance to combustible material and have a professional installer check the chimney and the load-bearing capacity of the base.
Combustion air and lighting
The model has the option for external combustion air. The air supply duct and smoke connection must be carried out according to the manufacturer's instructions and must not be blocked. Use dry, untreated wood, place it carefully in the vermiculite-lined firebox, and follow the manual's wood quantity and air regulation. Start with smaller fires during the first lightings and ventilate if new surfaces emit odors.
Cleaning and chimney sweep access
Clean all three glass surfaces when the stove is completely cold. Lacunza's Extra Clean Glass helps air pass through the glass but does not replace regular cleaning. Cleaning Access provides access to the smoke paths; follow the order in the original manual if the deflectors need to be removed and put back correctly before the next lighting. Also check the ash compartment and door seals.
Checks over time
Regularly inspect the combustion air duct, the smoke connection, the vermiculite parts, and that the door closes tightly. Have the chimney swept and fire protection checked according to the applicable intervals. Do not use damaged glass or loose internal parts.
