Prefabricated fireplaces

Prefabricated fireplaces (solid fuel space heaters) within the scope of the Construction Products Regulation, and their conformity with requirements shall be shown with a harmonised product standard and CE marking. In addition, they are subject to the requirements of the ecodesign and energy labelling regulations.

Flues connected to prefabricated fireplaces are not within the scope of the Rescue Service Equipment Act. The suitability of prefabricated chimneys and flue products for their intended purpose shall be indicated by the CE marking.

Prefabricated fireplaces are fireplaces permanently connected to a flue, e.g. open fireplaces and sauna stoves designed to use solid fuel.
