SAVEN fireplaces in South Africa
SAVEN is a Ukrainian manufacturer of steel fireplace inserts, free-standing stoves and ventilation grilles, certified to European standards and exporting to more than twenty countries. South Africa heats in June and July, and in the Highveld, the Drakensberg and the Western Cape interior those winter nights get genuinely cold. Closed wood-burning fireplaces are a practical answer where electricity supply is unreliable and load shedding is a fact of life.
Choosing a wood-burning fireplace in South Africa
That last point shapes the choice: a wood-burning firebox needs no electricity at all, so it keeps working when the grid does not. SAVEN has no dealer in South Africa at present and welcomes enquiries from distributors and installers who serve the residential heating market.
What SAVEN makes
The range covers straight steel inserts and corner inserts, free-standing steel stoves from 6.6 kW, cassette inserts for existing openings, ventilation grilles, chimney components and accessories. SAVEN is also the official importer of KAWMET cast iron inserts, KAWMET stoves and MORSO stoves.
