The Manoir is the updated version of Valcourt’s very first fireplace. The seel framed double doors and ceramic glass are second to none; they slide effortlessly and without special tools into each side of the fireplace, allowing for an exceptional view of the crackling flames.

This fireplace will allow you to be creative when designing your decor thanks to its facade options available in different finishes. In addition, you will benefit from the maximum heat of the Manor thanks to its included fan and the heat distribution options (forced air or gravity).

How The Valcourt Manoir Compares To Other Wood Fireplace Options

Why The Valcourt Manoir Is Worth The Investment

This isn't just a wood fireplace, it's an updated take on Valcourt's original design, built around a unique sliding double-door system and the flexibility to choose forced air or gravity heat distribution to match how your home is set up.

The Manoir specifically addresses the needs of homeowners who want a traditional, larger-firebox fireplace with genuine flexibility in how heat gets distributed through the room or home.

A Door System Unlike The Rest Of The Lineup. The steel-framed double doors slide effortlessly and without special tools into each side of the fireplace, giving an unobstructed view of the flames that's distinct from the single hinged doors or guillotine systems found on other models in the lineup.

Engineered For Flexible Heat Delivery

The included fan offers a choice between forced air or gravity heat distribution, letting you match the setup to your home's layout

A 4.25 cu. ft. firebox accepts logs up to 20" long, giving substantial capacity per load

The recommended heating area is rated up to 1,500 sq. ft., suited for mid-size to larger rooms

Built For Classic Style And Durability

Facade options in different finishes let you customize the decor to match your interior

Moulded refractory bricks and cast iron andirons add durability and classic detailing inside the firebox

The double sliding doors are built for ease of use without special tools required for opening or closing

Real Savings

The choice between forced air and gravity heat distribution means you're not locked into one heating approach after installation

A 4.25 cu. ft. firebox reduces reload frequency compared to smaller fireboxes

A limited lifetime warranty protects the investment far longer than the standard warranties typical on most inserts

Free shipping and no sales tax through Summit Forge Supply keeps the total cost down compared to buying elsewhere and paying tax and freight separately

The Bottom Line Homeowners who want a traditional wood fireplace with real flexibility in heat distribution and a distinctive sliding door design can't get that combination from the more modern EPA-certified or style-focused models in the lineup. The Manoir is built with a unique double sliding door system, a generous firebox, and a choice of heat distribution methods, so it adapts to how your home actually needs to be heated. For anyone who wants classic Valcourt design with modern flexibility, this is the fireplace built to deliver both.

*Any installation must be done according to the data and drawings detailed in the owner’s manual.
