Meta is widely known in the Russian market as a fireplace and stove manufacturer. Many years of experience and a qualified approach to business allow her to confidently occupy her niche in the production of quality goods. Since 2015, Meta decided to combine the advantages of two heating devices and released an interesting hybrid - a fireplace stove. Like a fireplace, they quickly heat the room, and like a stove they keep heat for a long time.
Varieties
The manufacturer offers several models of fireplace stoves with a water circuit, among which the buyer can choose the most suitable option for himself.
The Angara 12 fireplace stove with a water circuit is designed to heat a country house of 150 square meters. m Its power is 9 kW, it works on wood, briquettes, solid fuel, it quickly heats up. Manufacturing from thick-walled steel with a thickness of 5 mm provides it with good wear resistance. The model is equipped with a glass heat-resistant panoramic door, which allows you to observe the fire from three sides.
It has a compartment for storing firewood and a recess for heating food. A chamotte firebox provides good heat dissipation. Decorative inserts give it a stylish look. The combination of functionality and design make this stove an excellent option for a mansion and a summer residence.
Meta Warta with a stove made of stainless steel 5 mm thick with a total thermal power of 13 kW and a water circuit power of 5 kW is another good option for heating a private house. Its main difference is that it is equipped with a steel plate with a cast iron burner. Those. is a complete cooking appliance.
The furnace is equipped with a removable heat exchanger, which is very practical and convenient to use. The chimney connection system is universal - top and rear. Firebox lining - fireclay brick.
Without connecting to a heating system, such a furnace is able to work, but will wear out faster. The oven connected to the system without water cannot be used, because this will damage the heating elements. Meta Warta is able to work both on water and on antifreeze. You just need to make sure that other heating elements support the use of the same fluid.
In general, water-jacketed fireplace stoves have several advantages. The fireplace quickly turns on and warms up the room. Therefore, they are good for country houses, coming to which in the winter, I want to immediately warm myself from the road. High fire safety allows you to install them in wooden houses without fear. Durability, aesthetic beauty and environmental friendliness attract the attention of potential buyers.
All Metafire fireplaces can be placed near a wall or in a corner, which makes their operation as convenient as possible.
There are drawbacks to fireplace stoves with a water circuit, among which there is a high cost that pays for itself in a few years. It is caused by the relatively expensive installation of such a system.
Device
The device for heating heating stoves with water circuit is quite standard. There are two types of heating systems: indoor and outdoor. In closed water or antifreeze is pumped using a circulation pump. In open, the coolant under the pressure of the hydraulic tank enters the heating circuit.
Any system includes a furnace itself, a heat exchanger, automation, an expansion tank, and the required number of pipes and radiators.
The principle of operation of the fireplace stove is as follows. Cold water from the water supply is fed into the fireplace. There, it heats up and leaves the fireplace in the heat exchanger. The heat exchanger transfers heat from the hot fireplace system to the central heating system. At the same time, the water in the fireplace system does not come in contact with the central heating system of the house.
Automation controls the temperature in the system and the air supply to the combustion fireplace. When overheating, the air closes and the valve of the cooling circuit is activated.
The manufacturer supplies complete installation instructions with the equipment, so everyone can install it. However, if you are not confident in your abilities, it is better to trust professionals.
Selection rules
The fireplace stove is selected based on the area of the room. It is believed that for heating 10 square meters. m requires 1 kW of heat. If the stove is going to be heated for 8 hours, the required power is accordingly multiplied by three. So, equipment for 12 - 14 kW can heat a room with an area of 50 square meters. m
The dimensions of the models are indicated by the manufacturer with high accuracy, which allows you to determine how much space the equipment will occupy in the room. To save space, it is recommended to choose an angular design.
The presence of a hob makes the oven somewhat more expensive, but at the same time it is a very practical option. If the fireplace insert provides for finishing with replaceable chamotte plates, this makes it easy and inexpensive to repair in case of wear.
Reviews of fireplace stoves testify to the positive experience of heating cottages and mansions in the village. Cons are called disadvantages by low efficiency and high fuel consumption. This limits the use of this equipment in the northern cold regions of Russia.
Fuel quality also matters.
The use of raw firewood leads to sagging in the chimney.
In the interior of the house
Meta stove fireplaces look quite stylish and modern and fit well into the interior of any home. In addition, you can lay a brick on top of such a stove, imitating a classic fireplace or a Russian stove. In addition to aesthetic appeal, this is of practical importance: the brick cools down for a long time, providing additional heat transfer.
There are other types of decoration. Budget option - plaster and paint. The most spectacular, but also time-consuming option is natural stone. A good solution is tiling. Terracotta imitating natural stone looks good.
Specifications
- The total power of the fireplace is 16 kW, 7 kW falls on the aqua system. Calculation of the necessary fireplace power for a particular room is carried out according to the formula 1 kW per 10 m2, if the ceiling height does not exceed 2.5 meters, and the thermal insulation of the house is made with high quality.
- The ability to connect the chimney through the top of the fireplace or behind it, the smoke exhaust method allows you to choose a universal pipe.
- The diameter of the chimney stove-fireplace with a water circuit has 150 mm. The height of the chimney is determined during its construction, but it can not be less than 4.5 meters. Otherwise, the draft will be poor and part of the smoke will remain indoors.
Ankara 12 Aqua belongs to the third generation of Meta stove fireplaces. As in earlier models of fireplaces-stoves from "Meta" this "Angara" is also assembled from components of the best manufacturers of parts from around the world. Lining of Meta fire chambers is carried out in such a way that if one element is damaged, only it can be replaced.
The meta fireplace stove is fully adapted to the Russian climate. All metafire fireplaces have 2 types of execution - for location near the wall or in the corner, which makes using them as convenient as possible in the room of any meter.
META Angara 12 AQUA
A distinctive feature of the Metafire brand fireplaces is a convection system, which allows warm air to enter the room where the fireplace is heated from the outside above the door.
The design of the Meta fireplace stoves does not require a mandatory addition in the form of a portal, but if the owner wishes, any model can become a full-fledged stove or a classic fireplace.
Masonry will not reduce the speed of heating the room, but the cooling of the fireplace stove will be slower due to the fact that brick, natural stone, clinker and ceramic tiles will gradually give off heat.
The steel body of the fireplace stove cools down much faster. If in summer this is not so noticeable, then in winter, fuel economy will be noticeable. Warming of the fireplace stove is done by a portal or stylized masonry for a Russian stove. Plastering or tiling will also give additional insulation to the body.
Adjustable Clean Fire System - How It Works
Fireplace "Angara" refers to the foci of long burning of the pyrolysis type, with an additional afterburner. The increased efficiency of the fireplace stove is achieved with the help of a system used in a heat gun, also called Pavlov’s boiler, which discovered the method of non-waste use of solid fuel. The maximum temperature is achieved by the explosion of gases miscible with oxygen.
Pure Fire System
The reduced oxygen content in the main chamber does not contribute to the burning of logs, but to their decay. As a result of this process, fuel decomposes with increased formation of gases flowing into the afterburner, where the flow of oxygen is greater.
As a result of a chemical reaction of oxygen with gases, oxidation occurs. The climax of the reaction is the explosion with the release of a large amount of heat. So one log gives heat twice. The pyrolysis heating method is more economical, practically waste-free. Carbon dioxide emissions from the stove to the atmosphere are reduced to zero.
The force of the explosion is regulated by the intensity of oxygen supply to the afterburner. "Pure fire" in this case has no mythical background. From the course of physics it is known that one hundred the purest fire of blue color. So it becomes at incredibly high temperatures, in which even the molecules melt. This is the color of fire obtained in an explosion in the afterburner.
The choice of fuel for the Metafire water circuit furnace is limited to natural and pressed wood. Pellet granules give more heat transfer. They relate to ecologically clean biofuels. The afterburning system operating in the Meta furnaces makes any fuel clean and cost-effective.
Features of the first heating
The body and heat exchanger of the meta-fireplace stoves are coated with a special heat-resistant varnish. But at the factory it is not quenched by fire, so the first heating is accompanied by the release of a specific smell.
In the process of short-term heating, the varnish coating of the fireplace stove receives proper hardening. The varnish becomes more durable.
The first time you need to put in a furnace only 2 logs. Their mass should not exceed 3 kg. A large fuel fill during the first heating can damage the lacquer coating of the fireplace stove.
It is advisable to use the equipment with all the functions provided for it, so the first ignition of a fireplace with a water circuit is made only after installing the heating system and filling it with water.

Table of contents
The fireplace fireplace Angara 12 Aqua is a model that has a built-in water circuit, with the help of which such a modification is able to heat even a large two-story house. For the first time, Meta specialists combined a water circuit with simple furnaces in 2015, and such a development received its first success in the global and domestic markets.
The Meta fireplace stove with a water jacket has high power and qualitatively heats even the smallest rooms in the house, which puts such a device in the first place.
Introducing Varieties
Fireplace 12 with a shirt, from the manufacturer Meta - these are several varieties of hearths in various designs and sizes. If we consider specifically the center of the Angara with a water circuit, we can say with confidence that he will be able to heat a cottage with a footage of up to 140-160 square meters.
The furnace water circuit is able to quickly warm up to maximum temperature and begin to transfer heat to the premises of the house. Moreover, the power of such a fireplace insert is 9 kW, which is a very good indicator. There are more standard modifications of the Angara 12 without a water circuit, which also have their advantages and disadvantages.
The modification with the heating circuit is based on thick-walled steel with a thickness of 5 millimeters. The firebox itself is completely tight and belongs to the closed type, it is equipped with a door made of transparent tempered glass. Glass, in turn, allows you to observe the fire burning in the furnace. At the same time, such closed models are as safe as possible, even for installation in a house made of timber.
Many Angara 12 fireplace stoves are equipped not only with a heat exchanger and a water circuit, but also with a hob on which to cook food. At the same time, the furnace itself is additionally lined with chamotte plates in order to extend the life of the device.
The model is presented in a classic style and is supplemented by side ceramic inserts, which are not only a decorative component, but also batteries that can accumulate and give off thermal energy.
As an analogue of Hosper, a Russian brick oven assembled with his own hands is not rarely used, namely its crucible and sled. For added convenience, this heating design can be equipped with an additional removable cast iron grill.
If you look for ready-made analogues, I can recommend a model made of X-Oven cast iron. Such a variation, although it has a cost almost equal to Josper, is at the same time even more functional. With the small dimensions of the camera, food can be prepared on a three-level grill, which is very economical and convenient.
For those who want to not only heat the house, but also get a stove replacing the stove, the manufacturer has a Meta Warta stove equipped with a stainless steel hob and one cast iron burner. The power of such a device is 13 kW, while the water jacket itself gives another 5. The furnace is made of high-quality thick-walled steel of 5 millimeters. Using this model, you can not only heat the house, but also, if necessary, cook food and boil water, while the total heat is consumed for such manipulations.
A fireplace stove with a Warta water circuit allows you to connect or remove a heat exchange element if necessary. In addition, the cast-iron fireplace stove has a chamotte lining on the inside of the furnace and the ability to connect a chimney of choice either below or behind.
A fireplace that can be heated without a heat exchanger will not be efficient enough, resulting in wear. If you connect the stove to the heat exchanger and do not fill it with water, it will be life threatening. Fireplace Warta water circuit is able to work with both water and antifreeze. Before pouring antifreeze into the tank, you must carefully read the operating instructions and make sure that other devices that you have connected and the elements also allow you to use this substance.
A fireplace, the contour of which is declared by the manufacturer, has a lot of advantages. First of all, such a unit can quickly melt and heat the house. This is especially true for long periods of downtime or in winter. In addition, such structures are characterized by a high degree of fire safety, they can be installed not only in brick, but also in wooden buildings. They are environmentally friendly, aesthetic and durable.
Each of the manufacturerMetaFire modifications are presented in at least two versions - this is a corner and wall fireplace. Thus, you can choose a suitable hearth for a room with any area.
The disadvantages of fireplaces with a water jacket include their high price, but it will soon pay off in full. The cost is inflated not so much due to the price of the equipment itself, but rather due to the complexity of the installation and installation work.
How are they arranged
Fireboxes with a water circuit can be classified as open or closed. Open ones allow water to move through the pressure of the hydraulic tank and enter the heating circuit. Closed systems pump water, a special circulation pump is used for this.
The main components included in the kit are a combustion chamber, a tank, automation, a heat exchanger, pipes and heating radiators.
The stove with a water jacket works according to the following principle: cold water enters the furnace, after which it is heated to the required temperature, then it goes into the heat exchanger. From it, heat begins to spread through the central heating of the house. It is important that the water cannot come into contact with the central heating in the house when driving.
Management in Meta models is automatic. At the moment when the heating becomes maximum, the air is automatically shut off and cooling is performed using a special valve.
You can install Meta fireplaces with a water circuit using the instructions included with the detailed diagrams and recommendations from the manufacturer. If you are not confident in your abilities, it is better to entrust the installation and connection of equipment to professionals.
How to choose?
The model of the fireplace stove must be selected based on such an indicator as the total area of the premises that need to be heated. On 10 squares of the area, it takes about 1-1.5 kW of power. For a long furnace for 6-9 hours continuously, this indicator must be multiplied several times. For example, to heat a house with an area of 60 squares, you need 14 kW of furnace power.
Also, before buying, you need to pay attention to the dimensions of the structure and the method of its installation. The sizes of fireplaces can be found on the Internet, they are indicated as accurately as possible. For a small room, a miniature angular model is suitable, for medium and large wall.
More functional and expensive are stove-fireplaces with a hob, on which you can cook food. In terms of repair, variations show up best, the firebox of which is laid out with chamotte plates, which, when worn, can be replaced with similar ones.
Reviews of stoves and fireplaces indicate that such fire chambers are durable and of high quality. However, they are not economical enough and have average efficiency. That is why they are not suitable for installation in the regions of Russia and abroad with a very cold climate.
Only suitable fuel is used for kindling. This can be well-dried firewood or purchased pellets, which can be found in any specialized store.
Styles and Performance
By themselves, Meta fireplaces, including the Angara 12 with a water circuit, have an interesting and attractive appearance. Such designs will fit equally well in a traditional classic interior, as well as in a more modern living room.
If you wish and skill, you can impose a brick on a cast-iron or steel fireplace insert. Thus, you will form a portal with your own hands, which will carry not only a decorative function, but also allow you to profitably accumulate heat and continue to give it to the space of the house.
Also, such a frame can be decorated with various materials. They can be both quite budgetary and more expensive. it is possible to revet a fireplace budget with the help of paint or decorative plaster. However, when buying such materials, make sure that they are heat resistant.
In the average price range there are such facing materials for stoves and fireplaces as granite, metal, glass and artificial stone. All of these coatings must also be refractory and durable.
The most expensive cladding is made with natural minerals and tiles. A marble or granite fireplace in the living room of the house will look especially interesting and stylish.
When buying a furnace, pay special attention not only to the characteristics of the selected hearth, but also to its execution. It is important that it matches the set in the kitchen, in the living room or in any other style chosen for installation.
The Angara Meta stove with a water circuit is an excellent solution for a summer house or a private cottage. Such a furnace with the right choice of power, location and connection can be used not only as an additional, but also the main source of heating. At the same time, one should not forget that such equipment must be fully controlled and, if possible, fully automate all processes - this will avoid overheating of the equipment and its failure.
This video describes in detail the installation of the Angara-12 fireplace stove with a water heating circuit or a do-it-yourself shirt in the house:
Installation of a fireplace stove
Easy to install Angara Aqua 12
To make foundation pouring under the furnace or to strengthen the beams of an existing one - it depends on the construction of the foundation itself and its calculated endurance laid down during the design of the house.
The ideal time for installing a fireplace stove is the time of building a new house. The weight of the furnace without masonry or brickwork increases the load on the foundation slightly.
The stone portal of the fireplace stove or the brickwork of the furnace seriously increase the load on the bearing supports of the foundation. Putting a massive fireplace on the 2nd floor is dangerous.
Furnace mixture
The reinforcement of the concrete slab under the fireplace portal is a pedestal from the furnace mixture. Concrete is less resilient to a constant increase and decrease in temperature than clay. Concrete mixture is not suitable for facing stoves, fireplaces.
Concrete mortar will quickly crack, the stove-fireplace body will cool quickly. The composition of the furnace mixture is sand and clay in a certain proportion. For self-preparation of the solution will have to carry out simple experiments on the ratio of sand and clay.
In small containers, solutions with different proportions of sand, clay and water are diluted. Balls roll and leave at room temperature until completely dry. Fully dried clay balls are thrown on a stone or concrete slab. The proportion of the one that did not crumble is ideal. Clay blanks cracked during the drying process are not involved in the experiment.
In order not to forget what proportion of the mixture corresponds to a particular ball, it is necessary to attach a note with the composition to it. A universal recipe for solution c does not exist, because the clay in each area is different. For one type of sand it takes more, for another less. Ready dry kiln sand-clay mixture is in any hardware store.
Fire safety
Installation of a fireplace stove in a wooden house
Fire safety requirements when installing fireplaces and stoves are almost the same. The floor in front of the stove and fireplace, in case of coal falling out of the furnace and as a protection against overheating of the wooden coating, is covered with tin sheets. burns and does not melt.
The distance of the fireplace stove from the wall cannot be less than 10 cm, but in this case the wooden walls are covered with tin or sheet asbestos, so that the wood does not ignite from overheating.
The optimal distance from the wooden wall without additional protection should exceed half a meter. If the firebox is covered with brick from the back, this is a reliable protection against overheating. The cause of spontaneous combustion can be an incorrectly insulated chimney. Pipes for chimneys of stoves, fireplaces are available in several types.
The most commonly used pipes are stainless steel, galvanized and sandwich. In the first case, parts of the chimney require additional thermal insulation of areas outside the heated room.
Fire safety when installing a fireplace stove
Sandwich pipes have their own insulation layer. When using any pipe, it is necessary to take measures to protect materials bordering it. The basis of the roof and the closure of the attic space is most often wood. Hot smoke passing through the pipe contributes to a strong heating of the pipe walls and the materials adjacent to them, which can cause spontaneous combustion.
It will not be possible to immediately notice the fire; at the initial stage, smoldering will occur, as in a pyrolysis type fireplace. During this time, the fire will be able to cover a decent area.
Access of oxygen will give the same explosion as in the secondary afterburner of the furnace.
A small sheet of asbestos, thick tin and other materials that do not conduct heat or cool quickly will help to avoid losing a house, not turning it into potential fuel.
The principle of choosing a pipe and the necessary fittings for the chimney
Regardless of the number of pipes passing indoors, the ideal length of the chimney is 5-6 meters. The length of the chimney pipes more than 4.5 meters gives the best results when firing up a fireplace insert and maintaining heat in the room. When calculating the length of the chimney of a furnace with a Meta furnace, the height of the adapter from the fireplace pipe to the main pipe, elbows, allowing the pipe to be output at different angles through the wall or ceiling, are taken into account.
An integral part of the chimney is a gate, a view, a damper - in different regions of Russia this device of a chimney of a furnace is called differently. Recently, in addition to the traditional damper, a new type of this device has appeared. In the pipe segment there is a circle slightly smaller than the diameter of the pipe.
Gate rotary round
On the outside of the gate there is a lever that changes the position of the lid that opens or closes the smoke outlet. If you neglect this section of the chimney, you will have to heat more often.
Early closure threatens with carbon monoxide poisoning. Thanks to the view or the gate, you can adjust the draft, which varies depending on weather conditions. The upper part of the chimney of the fireplace stove must be protected from the ingress of atmospheric precipitation. For this, special metal umbrellas are used.
Some manufacturers offer kits for building a chimney.
However, such proposals are more often suitable for removing smoke from stoves of one-story houses. Properly selected diameter and full compliance with the technical characteristics of the metal allow you to set the pipe with similar pipe segments.
The purchase of the necessary elements of the chimney of the fireplace stove separately allows you to select the necessary parts of different sizes, which will allow you not to cut the pipe. Due to its cost, this selection option makes sense.
The cost of a fireplace with a water circuit
The cost of the fireplace stove from the Meta company varies between 35-45 thousand rubles. The water circuit requires the installation of heating radiators in the rooms of the house and connecting them into a common pipe system. That with self-installation will increase the cost by 15-20 thousand, depending on the number of sections of radiators.
