INFIRE SMART 950 Wood-Burning Fireplace with Ventilation BODART & GONAY

The INFIRE SMART 950 with ventilation is the flagship model within the SMART wood-burning inserts by Bodart & Gonay. Designed for wall-mounted installation, it combines the warmth of traditional fire with the most advanced technology. The manufacturer, with over 70 years of experience, has created this unit to exceed demanding European regulations.

This model delivers an 81.6% efficiency and power output of up to 14 kW, making it the ideal choice for very large rooms, single-family homes, cottages, or country houses with high heating demand. 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, something essential in such large spaces.

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 panoramic 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.

The fire view is 414 mm high by 864 mm wide, the largest in the entire SMART range, offering a truly panoramic and immersive visual experience.

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. The combustion chamber is deep, concentrating embers in the center and preventing ash from escaping the firebox.

High efficiency (81.6%)

With 81.6% efficiency, the SMART 950 makes excellent use of wood energy. This means:

• Less wood consumption to achieve the same temperature.
• Lower emissions of pollutants.
• Greater savings on heating.

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 much 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 very large rooms or with double-height ceilings.
• Helps distribute heat in homes with average insulation.

Logs up to 50 cm (two units)

A standout feature of the SMART 950 is that it accepts logs up to 50 cm long, and you can load two logs simultaneously (2 x 33 cm or 2 x 50 cm depending on arrangement). This reduces loading frequency and is ideal for extended use periods.

180 mm smoke outlet

The SMART 950 has a 180 mm diameter smoke outlet, allowing better evacuation of gases and more efficient draught in large fireplaces.

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.

Versatile installation

The combustion air inlet can be connected via the rear, bottom or front. The feet are adjustable to level the unit. The finishing frames are included in the price (4 mm, 30 mm 3 sides or 30 mm 4 sides).
