Create a stunning architectural focal point and experience the full impact of a traditional wood fire with the Superior WRT3543 43-Inch Wood-Burning Fireplace. Designed for large living areas, great rooms, and open-concept floorplans, this fireplace combines an expansive viewing area, powerful radiant heat, and modern factory-built efficiency for a true masonry-style experience without the weight or complexity.
As part of Superior’s WRT3500 Series, the WRT3543 features a deep firebox and oversized smoke dome, delivering reliable drafting, smoother operation, and a clear, unobstructed flame presentation. The larger 43-inch opening enhances both the visual impact and the heating potential, making it the ideal choice for homeowners who want their fireplace to be the centerpiece of the room.
The fully insulated firebox helps maximize heat retention and improve cold-climate performance, while the choice of stacked refractory for a classic look or herringbone refractory for a more detailed, premium finish allows you to tailor the interior to your design style.
With its clean radiant smooth-face design, concealed mesh screens, and durable textured powder-coat finish, the WRT3543 installs seamlessly into both traditional and contemporary spaces while delivering the authentic warmth and ambiance only real wood can provide.
