Q. How do most manufactures choose to address this concern of hot walls?
1. Avoiding it.
a. Some think that if they ignore it, the customer will agree that it is not
important.
i. ORTAL recognizes that modern design demands sophistication,
efficiency and vision. Often fireplaces are part of the great room,
where the family comes together to socializes, play games, watch
TV and relax in front of the fire. The family gathers to do all of
this in one room. Similarly a hotel or restaurant/bar may want to
have the TV on during the day showing news and sports with the
fireplace on in the evening for the guests to relax. This can all be
accomplished in one luxurious setting.
b. Avoiding it means the heat continues to build up within the walls. This is
not a solution.
i. ORTAL’s technology reduces the heat and gives dealers,
architects, builders, designers and owners options.
c. Avoiding it means that installers may likely waste time sending their
installations crew back and forth from the job site to fix a problem that
cannot actually be fixed because it is inherent to the product. The client
complains about the walls being hot, but hot walls are apparent by design.
i. When the fireplace installation is compliant, an ORTAL fireplace
is surrounded by cool walls the first time every time. The client
isn’t complaining and additional trips to address hot walls are not
requested or required.
