Overview
The Buller was designed for the Australian market, inspired by the traditional wide wood stove, with a low profile and a broad window. This version sits on a box base with an open space underneath for firewood.
Why choose the Buller Box
- Box base with log storage. The firebox sits on a 400 mm high base with open storage, 930 mm high overall.
- Big firebox. It takes logs up to 45 cm and heats up to 280 m², one of the largest capacities in the Euro Fireplaces range.
- Wide window. The low, wide glass gives a broad view of the fire and plenty of radiant heat.
- No fan, no power. A double skin draws cool air in at the sides, warms it and sends it back out the top, so heat spreads through the house without a noisy fan.
- Fresh air from outside. A 100 mm intake at the rear can be connected to outside air, so the fire does not use the warm air in the room. This suits well sealed, energy efficient homes.
- Optional heat bank. A 10 kg heat bank for the sides and back lifts ember retention from 7 hours or more to 8.

FAQs
Does it need a flue?
Yes. The flue connects to the heater and runs straight up through the ceiling. Allow at least 4 m of flue above the heater. A licensed installer must fit it.
Does it need power or a fan?
No. It heats by natural convection: cool air is drawn into a double skin at the sides, warmed, and released from the top. There is no fan and nothing to plug in.
Can it take its air from outside?
Yes. A 100 mm intake at the rear can be connected to outside air through a wall or the floor. The fire then uses outside air instead of the warm air in your room, which suits well sealed homes.
What is a heat bank?
A heat bank is extra heat-storing material, such as refractory concrete panels or magnesite bricks, fitted inside the heater. It soaks up heat while the fire burns and releases it for hours afterwards. It is an optional extra on many Euro Fireplaces heaters and built into some.
What wood should I burn?
Seasoned hardwood only. The moisture content should be under 25%, and 12 to 20% is best. Smaller logs burn cleaner, longer and hotter than large ones. Never burn treated or painted timber, driftwood or building offcuts.
Should I shut it down to burn overnight?
Euro Fireplaces advises against it. Shutting a heater down overnight makes a cold, smouldering fire with high emissions and creosote in the flue. These heaters light quickly, and a heat bank or stone cladding keeps giving off warmth after the fire has gone out.
Who can install it?
A licensed installer. The warranty only applies when the heater is installed to the Euro Fireplaces guidelines by a qualified installer, and some states need a certificate of compliance for the installation.
What is the warranty?
Euro Fireplaces covers the firebox for 5 years from the date of purchase. Linings and seals are covered for 3 months, and the glass until the first burn. It applies to the original buyer when the heater is installed by a qualified installer and run to the instructions with seasoned, untreated wood.
