INFIRE SMART 680 Wood-Burning Fireplace with Ventilation BODART & GONAY

The INFIRE SMART 680 with ventilation is a wood-burning insert designed for wall-mounted installation, combining the warmth of traditional fire with the most advanced technology. It belongs to the new generation of Bodart & Gonay equipment, a manufacturer with over 70 years of experience, and complies with demanding European regulations.

This model is slightly larger than the SMART 600, offering a wider fire view and slightly higher power output, ideal for medium-sized rooms. The main difference from the non-ventilated model is that this unit features two low-consumption fans that help distribute heat more quickly and evenly throughout the room.

Choose your door style

You can choose between steel door or glass door, both at the same price:

• Steel door: More traditional, robust and classic appearance.
• Glass door: Maximum fire view, more contemporary and clean style.

Both options have the same performance and quality.

A fire window

The door frame is positioned behind the glass, with angled sides facing inward. This allows you to see much more fire and much less metal. The closing mechanism has two positions: you can leave the door slightly open during ignition so the glass doesn't fog up, without needing to leave it fully open.

The fire view is 340 mm high by 537 mm wide, noticeably larger than in the 600 model.

Clean combustion and always-transparent glass

The unit features a dual smoke extraction system that directs hot air over the glass. This prevents soot from sticking, keeping the glass clean for longer. Additionally, the combustion chamber is deep, which concentrates embers in the center and prevents ash from escaping the firebox.

Intelligent ventilation system

This model includes two DC fans that consume very little electricity (maximum 26 W) and are especially quiet. The system works completely automatically:

• Starts automatically when the fireplace body reaches 55°C (you don't need to do anything).
• Shuts off automatically when temperature drops below 55°C.
• Stops when you open the door so it doesn't draw in smoke, and resumes when you close it.
• Two speeds to choose from: setting 1 (slow and very quiet) or setting 2 (fast and powerful).

Thanks to aluminium heat exchangers, the air pushed by the fans heats up faster and more efficiently.

Why choose the ventilated version?

• Heat reaches farther throughout the same room.
• Temperature becomes more uniform (no cold and hot spots).
• You can connect hot air ducts (optional) to carry heat to adjacent rooms.
• Ideal for medium or large rooms or with high ceilings.

Maximum heat utilization

To achieve high efficiency (above 80%), the interior incorporates a heat-reflecting plate (vermiculite material) that makes hot gases travel a longer path inside the appliance. This way heat doesn't escape quickly up the chimney, but stays in the room, heating more efficiently with less wood.

Easy cleaning and maintenance

• Ash pan accessible from the front: Remove ashes quickly and easily.
• Removable filter: Protects fans and electronics from dust; easily removed and cleaned.
• Removable air distributors: Can be removed without tools for thorough cleaning.

Versatile installation

The combustion air inlet can be connected:

• Via the rear (outdoor air intake).
• Via the bottom (outdoor air intake).
• Via the front (room air intake).

The feet are adjustable to level the unit easily. The finishing frames are included in the price and you can choose between:

• Thin 4 mm frame: Minimalist finish, nearly invisible.
• 30 mm 3-side frame: Frames the fire on three of its sides.
• 30 mm 4-side frame: Frames the fire on all four sides.
