Soapstone fireplaces

In a soapstone fireplace, the same heating elements are used as in a tiled fireplace or in a marble fireplace. As with the other fireplaces, the indoor air is heated in accordance with the convection principle and is emitted into the installation room through ventilation grilles. In these fireplaces, the heating elements are covered with soapstone, as the name implies. Fireplaces that are entirely made of soapstone or that are made of soapstone in combination with other materials are available. Soapstone came into being approx. 2.8 billion years ago and is of volcanic origin. The soapstone covering of these fireplaces can, different from standard soapstone, also be adapted individually to the solidium. At Hark's individual production centers we can do all that. Any customer's needs and special dimensions can be converted. Due to its appealing look and its good storage properties, soapstone has lately become more and more popular.
