Camden Town House

DRU Maestro gas fire completes transformation of classic Camden town house

When we were approached by architect Tamas Deilinger and his wife, who had decided to renovate their attractive 3-storey town house in Camden, North London, we recommended a DRU Maestro 75 Eco Wave contemporary gas fire to be the main focal point and primary source of heat in their living room.

The fire was supplied and installed by London fireplace specialists Acquisitions, who skilfully adapted the existing Class 1 chimney in the property, creating a larger opening for this expansive fire and inserting the balanced flue all the way up the chimney, exiting on the roof.

The balanced flue system, which was originally developed by DRU in the 1930s, draws air from outside the building for combustion and expels waste gases outside using the same concentric flue. This means that no air is depleted inside the home, resulting in safe, comfortable and efficient performance.

The Maestro 75 has the exclusive DRU Dynamic log burner, which generates high, dense, realistic flames underpinned by a comforting glow. The flame picture can be controlled with a smartphone or tablet using the exclusive DRU Eco Wave app, which also allows the user to set the room temperature and gas consumption.

The fire has an A energy rating and is 89% energy efficient, essential for modern, well insulated homes. Other work on the property included the renovation of the kitchen and bathroom, bringing both up to high modern standards

Tamas and his family are delighted with the difference that the Maestro 75 has made to their newly refurbished town house and have enjoyed comfortable winters, while keeping their heating bills low.
