Have Questions About Valcourt?
For over 60 years, Valcourt products have exuded innovation and excellence. Brothers Auguste and Lucien Valcourt began their journey to success through the creation of intricately made wrought-iron balconies and stairs. The quality of these products was only outmatched by the creativity of the Valcourt brothers. In 1992, after slowly introducing fireplace doors into their product line, Valcourt released its first wood fireplace: The Manoir.
Fascination with the appliance quickly turned into an obsession to imitate it, though no one came close to matching its sophistication. Valcourt continued to dominate industry innovation as it produced the first guillotine fireplace named The Antoinette. Wrangling the growing conflict between fireplace efficiency and environmental safety, Valcourt created the largest fireplace on the market meeting EPA standards in 2015.
By 2020, innovation and quality became synonymous with the Valcourt name, leaving their customers with the assurance they are a brand you will love and trust.
In an effort to help you dig through the many quality fireplace models Valcourt sells, we have compiled a list of their best sellers. We split them into two categories, Wood Burning High Efficiency and Wood Burning Decorative, for ease of review.
The Lafayette model has a single door opening with a customizable faceplate that combines efficient heating technology with classic elegance. At 80,000 BTU max output, you would think this appliance might not be good for the environment. Though, this model adheres to strict EPA standards that make it a very clean source of heat. It is recommended to use dry cordwood for the most efficient and environmentally friendly burn.
If you are looking for a sleek, modern fireplace, look no further than The Mundo II. This noncatalytic and EPA certified model is safe yet strong in the ways of heating your home. It pushes a powerful 80,000 BTU output while also managing a very low particle emissions rate. Because of the power of this appliance, a hot air gravity kit is required to maintain tolerable heat levels for the area surrounding your fireplace.
This beauty is almost as nice to look at as its name is to say. The unique style of The Waterloo combines with high efficiency to make one beautiful piece of machinery. If the aesthetics weren't enough, a large glass viewing door opens to a massive burn space made to heat large, open rooms. With 95,000 BTU output, you won't be getting cold anywhere near this thing!
The Antoinette.
Let's take a moment to swoon over this understated beauty. Lady A features a classic, elegant style that blends in with any living room decor. Though The Antoinette is special, you have to take a closer look to see everything she has to offer. This model features the first, ever, glass guillotine door introduced into the fireplace industry. It slides upwards for easy access to feed your fire as well as adds a bit of flair to surprise your guests. A fire screen hides in the surface of the appliance and can quickly be pulled down to take the place of the glass door.
The Antoinette qualifies for phase II of the EPA's program that focuses on reducing particle emissions, making it burn 70% cleaner than most decorative wood fireplaces.
The Frontenac is a fireplace you can't miss. This is the largest model in the entire Valcourt line. It features a beautiful glass guillotine door with a matching fire screen that disappears underneath the hearth. If you want power and a performance, you need the Frontenac. This model is BIG, so you won't miss a single second of the ambiance and warmth of a crackling fire.
As a bonus, this model surprisingly qualifies for Phase II of the EPA's program that focuses on particle emissions reduction. So, while you are enjoying an unobstructed view of massive flames and heat, you don't have to worry about hurting the environment in the process.
An unexpected twist on the typical box-shaped fireplace Americans have come to know, The Saint Laurent is among a new breed of hearth products. The sleek lines and rectangular shape create an understated yet surprising look for this appliance. It features the trademark glass guillotine door and guillotine firescreen Valcourt buyers adore. The large opening lends to easy loading and enhanced viewing pleasure. You will love The Saint Laurent!
