Transform Your Garden with Isokern Garden Fireplaces from Stove Saver
As the seasons shift and you spend more time outdoors, a garden fireplace can transform your garden into a cosy, inviting haven. At Stove Saver, we’re excited to offer Isokern garden fireplaces, crafted by Schiedel, which blend style, safety, and functionality to create a stunning centrepiece for any outdoor space. These fireplaces are more than just a source of warmth—they’re a lifestyle upgrade, perfect for hosting gatherings or enjoying quiet evenings under the stars.
What makes Isokern garden fireplaces unique is their construction from natural volcanic pumice, sourced from Iceland’s Hekla Volcano. This remarkable material provides exceptional insulation, keeping the outer walls cool to the touch, ensuring safety for families, pets, and nearby garden features. The pumice’s natural texture adds a rustic, elegant charm that enhances any garden’s aesthetic, making it a focal point that’s both beautiful and practical. With this insulation, you can enjoy a mesmerising fire without worrying about excessive heat radiating to the surroundings, making Isokern fireplaces a safe and spectacular choice.

Weighing 460kg, this model comes as a complete kit, including chimney blocks, lip glue, firebricks, firebrick mortar, render, a log retainer, and a barbecue grill, making assembly straightforward for DIY enthusiasts. Its versatility allows it to double as a barbecue, perfect for grilling steaks or pizzas, and you can customise it with paint or render to match your garden’s decor.

Features and Benefits
Each Isokern fireplace is designed with practicality and beauty in mind. The complete kit makes assembly user-friendly, including everything from chimney blocks to a barbecue grill. Their versatile design allows for freestanding or wall-mounted installation, and additional chimney blocks can be purchased to extend the chimney height for a customised look. The volcanic pumice ensures excellent insulation, keeping outer walls cool and allowing safe placement near other garden elements, though Schiedel recommends a 75mm distance from combustible materials like wooden fencing or decking. You can render or paint the fireplace to match your garden’s decor, with some customers, like Jennifer Devaney, adding decorative patterns for a personalised touch (Rangemoors). Beyond warmth, these fireplaces double as barbecues, perfect for cooking everything from vegetables to pizzas, making them ideal for entertaining.
Installation Made Simple
Installing an Isokern garden fireplace is straightforward, with detailed instructions included in each kit. Schiedel recommends building on a minimum 100mm reinforced concrete base to support the fireplace’s weight (460kg for the Garden 500) and avoiding placement on decking or unstable surfaces. A timelapse video on Schiedel’s website demonstrates the ease of assembly (Schiedel). For those less confident in DIY, professional installation services may be available through retailers like Bonfire. Maintaining a 75mm gap from combustible materials ensures safety during use.
Styling Your Isokern Fireplace
Once installed, your Isokern garden fireplace becomes the heart of your outdoor space. Create a cosy gathering spot with cushioned chairs or a sectional sofa, adding throw blankets and pillows for cooler evenings. Enhance the ambience with string lights, lanterns, or solar-powered garden lights to highlight the fireplace’s warm glow. Surround it with potted plants, flowers, or a small herb garden to blend it into your garden’s natural beauty. Use the included barbecue grill to host summer barbecues or cosy winter gatherings, creating memorable outdoor dining experiences.
