Description

The Majestic Cottagewood is an outdoor wood-burning fireplace with a brick refractory and doors, in 36, 42 and 50 inch, for a patio or outdoor room. It comes in 3 sizes, Cottagewood 36, Cottagewood 42 and Cottagewood 50.

Who it's for

Right buyer. You want a wood-burning fireplace on the patio with a brick refractory and doors, in 36, 42 or 50 inch.

Wrong buyer. You want the convenience of gas outdoors; the Courtyard or Vesper.

How it performs

The Cottagewood is a real wood fire on the patio: a brick-lined firebox with doors, built into a non-combustible enclosure with its own chimney. It is the outdoor room's hearth, and it burns like an indoor fireplace does.

Good to know

  • Outdoors only; it has no damper.
  • The chimney must reach the height the manual gives, 18 feet from the base in most builds.
  • Weather reaches it; doors and a cover help.

Source: Hearth & Home Technologies Limited Lifetime Warranty, the document packed with the appliance and linked from the owner's manual above. "Lifetime" means 20 years for gas appliances, 10 years for wood and pellet appliances and 5 years for standalone gas log sets, counted from the start of coverage, which begins no later than 24 months after the appliance ships from the factory.

Heat

An open wood fireplace is not a rated heater, and Majestic publishes no BTU figure for it: the fire warms what it faces by radiation, and most of the heat from the flue goes outdoors. What decides how much fire you get is the firebox: Cottagewood 36 opens 59-3/4 to top of the starter section, Cottagewood 42 opens 59-3/4", Cottagewood 36 opens 49-5/8, Cottagewood 42 opens 59-1/4, Sides opens 1", Front opens 24 from the door opening, Hearth extension opens 0", 12" opens ODCTGWD-36-B, Cottagewood 42 opens 42" x 28 1/2" opening, Cott. Seasoned hardwood, a proper chimney draft and doors closed as the fire burns down give the most warmth for the wood. Where a gas log set is approved for the model, its rating is on the log-set page.

Choices and prices

Refractory

The refractory is the brick lining of the firebox. Traditional is a running bond; herringbone sets the bricks on the diagonal. Both are the same material and price class; the choice is the look.

Installation

Venting Requirement
Type Wood chimney, UL 127
Termination 3 ft above the roof and 2 ft above anything within 10 ft
Chimney height 18 ft minimum straight, 18.5 with one offset, 24 with two; 90 ft maximum; 10 ft in a non-combustible freestanding enclosure with the extended smoke shield

Offsets 30 degrees maximum, two pairs, 20 ft between offset and return.

An outdoor wood fireplace is built into a non-combustible enclosure on the patio and vented with its own chimney system to the height the manual requires. The chimney pipe, supports and cap are sold separately and quoted from your installer's plan.

Planning the install

  • Installation is by a qualified installer, and the fireplace and its chimney are inspected together.
  • Framing, clearances, hearth extension and chimney height come from the installation manual for your size. Send us your plan and we will check it before anything ships.
  • The chimney system is sold separately and priced from the plan.
  • Outdoor only. Never install an outdoor fireplace inside a structure.
  • Special-order goods ship by freight. Confirm the size and refractory before you order.

Questions
Can I put gas logs in it?

Most Majestic wood fireplaces have gas knockouts and are listed for specific vented gas log sets; the options on this page are the ones Majestic approves for this model. A gas line and installation by a gas fitter are required.

Does it heat the room?

An open wood fireplace is for the look and the radiant warmth in front of it; most of the heat goes up the chimney. Doors help. For heating, look at the WarmMajic-II or a wood insert.

Which chimney pipe does it take?

The pipe system listed in the manual for this model, in the diameter and minimum height it specifies. We quote it from your installer's plan.

Can I return it?

Fireplaces are special-order freight items. Confirm the size, refractory and doors with us before you order, and contact us before returning anything.

What wood should I burn?

Seasoned hardwood, split and dried a year or more, below 20 percent moisture. Wet wood smokes, coats the chimney with creosote and makes a poor fire.

How often does the chimney need sweeping?

Once a year at least, and after every cord or two if you burn nightly. Creosote is the fire risk in any wood fireplace, and a sweep is cheap insurance.
