The Stûv 22/90 Single-Faced Wood Burning Fireplace is the mid-width one-sided model in the Stûv 22 range, designed to combine a broad flame picture with high heating performance and seamless architectural integration. Its retractable glass, concealed frame concept and strong output make it a serious built-in fireplace for projects where the fire is intended to be both a visual centrepiece and a meaningful heat source.
The Stûv 22 concept is built around the balance between open-fire authenticity and closed-fire efficiency. With the glass lowered, the appliance operates as a highly efficient airtight wood burning fireplace with a clear, uninterrupted view of the flames. With the glass raised, it delivers the atmosphere of an open fire while using an engineered external air and smoke management system to reduce the drawbacks of a traditional open hearth. The patented integrated door frame allows the chosen finish to sit extremely close to the fire, helping the appliance merge into the surrounding architecture.
The 22/90 sits at the centre of the range and is often the most versatile size. It gives a broader fire view than the 70 model, while avoiding the full scale of the 110. In performance terms, it offers a 16.2 kW nominal output, an operating range of 8.5 to 20.8 kW, nominal efficiency of 81.1% and an energy efficiency class of A+. It accepts 50 cm horizontal logs, uses a 200 mm smoke flue, and supports direct external air inlet, compensation air, primary and secondary air control, post-combustion and high airtightness. Optional additions include a barbecue kit, fan, façade, front insulation kit and multiple cladding, panel and ready-to-fit fireplace solutions.

Expert Insight
The 22/90 is likely the most balanced model in the single-faced range because it combines a broad flame opening with an A+ efficiency rating and strong nominal output. It gives the architectural presence many projects want from the Stûv 22 family, but remains easier to integrate than the largest format. That can make it the most practical choice for many larger living spaces.
The compensation air system is also especially important on a retractable open-fire appliance like this. It helps the fireplace operate in open mode without the same disruption to room air balance associated with a conventional open fire.
Suitability
The Stûv 22/90 Single-Faced Wood Burning Fireplace is well suited to premium living rooms, design-led renovations, new-build architectural projects and interiors where the fireplace should act as a substantial one-sided focal point. It is a strong choice for customers who want a broad flame picture, efficient closed-fire heating and genuine open-fire capability in one appliance.
