The Ethos Genesis is a premium New Zealand-made wood fire designed to deliver exceptional heating performance, ultra-low emissions, and outstanding efficiency. Featuring Ethos' patented EconAir flue technology, a unique high-output firebox design, and the ability to cook directly on the fire, the Genesis offers a level of performance rarely found in conventional wood burners.
Proudly manufactured in Canterbury, New Zealand, the Genesis combines modern styling with practical heating performance and is available in over 160 colour options at no additional cost, allowing you to create a genuine design feature within your home.
NZ Made 18kW Heat Output Ultra Low Emissions Patented EconAir Flue 160+ Colours Cooktop Function 15 Year WarrantyMost wood fires draw combustion air from inside the home, creating cold air movement and reducing heating efficiency. The Ethos Genesis takes a completely different approach.
The patented EconAir bi-directional flue system isolates the fire from the home's internal air supply. Combustion air is drawn down the outer section of the flue and pre-heated by exhaust gases to over 300°C before entering the firebox. This results in hotter combustion, improved efficiency, lower emissions, and significantly reduced firewood consumption.
Because the fire is isolated from the home's air network, there are no cold draughts and the Genesis performs exceptionally well in modern airtight homes.
The Genesis incorporates Ethos' unique multi-chamber firebox design featuring one primary front burn zone and three independent rear burn chambers. Force-fed combustion air enters at temperatures exceeding 300°C, ensuring more complete combustion of solids, volatiles, smoke, and gases.
The result is greater heat output from a compact firebox, cleaner burning performance, lower emissions, reduced ash buildup, lower fuel consumption, and lower ongoing running costs.
Every Ethos Genesis wood fire is proudly designed and manufactured in Canterbury, New Zealand. Built using robust 5mm steel construction and advanced robotic welding processes, the Genesis is engineered specifically for New Zealand homes and conditions.
Unlike many imported alternatives, Ethos fires are backed by local expertise, local manufacturing, and a comprehensive 15-year firebox warranty.
Ethos offers one of the largest colour ranges available in the wood fire industry, with more than 160 colour options available at no additional cost. Whether you prefer a traditional finish or want to create a striking architectural feature, the Genesis can be customised to complement your home's interior design.
Unlike many manufacturers that charge extra for custom finishes, Ethos allows you to choose from an extensive colour palette without increasing the purchase price.
