Lopi fireplaces span both wood and gas heating, which makes the brand collection most useful as a fuel-and-installation decision page. The right Lopi is not simply the model with the largest viewing area; it is the appliance that matches the fuel you want to use and the type of fireplace opening or new-build structure available.
For wood heating, Lopi Australia offers freestanding and inbuilt fireplaces. Freestanding models suit projects where the heater can stand on a compliant hearth with an approved flue system, while inbuilt models are designed around a prepared fireplace opening. Current Alfresco range examples include Lopi wood products such as Evergreen, Liberty and Flush Wood models. When comparing them, look at manufacturer-rated heating guidance, firebox size, clearances, hearth requirements and optional features rather than choosing on cabinet dimensions alone.
Lopi’s gas range is structured differently. The manufacturer offers freestanding gas fireplaces, zero-clearance fireplaces and gas inserts. Lopi describes its gas products as Direct Vent or Balanced Flue appliances. A gas insert is intended for a suitable existing masonry fireplace or chimney, while a zero-clearance unit is planned into framing as part of a new fireplace installation. Current Alfresco listings have included DVS and DVL gas inserts together with freestanding and built-in Lopi gas products.
Choose wood or gas first, then identify the installation format. From there, compare the exact room-heating guidance, flue route, gas type where relevant, dimensions and required clearances. Use Lopi Wood Heating or Lopi Gas Heating once you are ready to narrow the brand to a specific fuel.
