Even the manliest man cave needs protection from the outside elements. Whether it’s for your garage, home, or office, Simply Heat provides total heating solutions so that you can stay warm and keep the cold out this winter.

It’s often overwhelming to narrow down the options and answer the question of what heating solution will work best for you. Steve Waring, from Simply Heat, explains the options, “The Escea DS1400 is a high output gas fire with a large glass viewing area, ultra-thin depth and 5-star efficiency. It makes the perfect combination of form and function. Everything you don’t need is removed, giving a minimalist look that focuses on the flame.” Wood fires are still proving to be a popular option. Some may see wood heat as undesirable, even though it has been a source of heating and cooking fuel for millennia. However, Steve says, wood is renewable, and trees will continue to grow and supply more. Newer outdoor woodstoves, such as the Escea EK1250 Outdoor Fireplace Kitchen, are very energy-efficient, releasing few missions, and they are an excellent versatile household item, with multiple uses.

“The EK Series of outdoor wood fires come equipped with everything you need for ultimate outdoor entertaining: cooking plates, grills and meat hooks. The added advantage with woodfires is that you can cook on the woodstove, heat water for domestic use, hang laundry to dry and spread the ashes in the garden to raise the pH of acidic soils,” says Steve. Kiwi innovators Escea have delighted customers with their ‘must-have’ outdoor wood fire table. The product line is inspired by the classic campfire and is made for gathering, sharing and marshmallow toasting.

“It’s a new twist on an old classic. Escea’s Vortex Firecore technology is cleaner burning, meaning the fire table gives the warmth, ambience and flames of a campfire, without all the smoke,” explains Steve.
