YOUR HEAT; YOUR
WAY.
Quadra-Fire offers four wood fireplace
insert models. These models cover
a wide range of sizes, styles, and
colors. Whether you want to heat a
small cabin or a large home, there’s a
Quadra-Fire that’s just right for you.
There are lots of ways to heat a
home, but nothing can compare to
the satisfaction of a real wood fire—
the sound of wood crackling, the
cozy warmth and the rolling flames.
As energy prices continue to rise, and
many people are turning down their
thermostats to save money, you just
throw another log on the fire. It’s one
of the many benefits you’ll find with
a new Quadra-Fire wood
fireplace insert.
Quadra-Fire’s wood fireplace inserts are built to get the
most possible heat out of your firewood. Our patented
four-point combustion system creates beautiful fire
and unmatched efficiency that have made Quadra-Fire
famous. In fact, for 20 straight years, Quadra-Fire
has produced the cleanest-burning line of non-catalytic
wood appliances available, as rated by the EPA. At
Quadra-Fire, being environmentally-friendly isn’t a
trend—it’s the tradition.
Quadra-Fire wood fireplace inserts are made with heavy-
gauge steel and welded together for a lifetime of depend-
able service. Simple maintenance will keep your new
Quadra-Fire delivering all the heat you need—all day,
every day, for years to come.
PERFORMANCE. DUR ABILITY. CONTROL.

5100i EXTRA LARGE HEAT CAPACITY
The largest full-view bay available in a non-catalytic
fireplace insert provides a spectacular view of the
famous Quadra-Fire burn. The 5100i firebox is one of
the largest in the industry. It can warm your home
for up to 12 hours on just one full load of wood. To
help move the heat around your home, a variable
speed blower is standard with the 5100i. And, all
Quadra-Fire wood products include precision air
controls that are easy to use and give you the ability
to have your fire, your way.

4100i LARGE HEAT CAPACITY
The 4100i brings the tradition and charm of cast-iron
to the Quadra-Fire wood insert line-up. The full bay
door features three viewing windows framed by gold
or satin nickel inlays, and it opens wide for safe and
easy loading. Cast iron trim on the panel gives this
high-performance insert the look and feel of fine
furniture. Beyond the beauty of this insert, the
patented Quadra-Fire four-point combustion system
and a large 2.5 cubic foot firebox provide high
efficiency and long, steady burns.

3100i MEDIUM HEAT CAPACITY
The 3100i is a popular choice for medium-
sized homes, and is a great way to turn a drafty
fireplace into an efficient heat source. This
insert gives you incredible efficiency and
clean, smoke-free burns for hours resulting in
maximum heat output from each load of wood.
The classic bay style helps heat transfer into the
room easily, and provides space for a simmering
kettle on top.

2700i SMALL SIZE FITS ANYWHERE
The Quadra-Fire 2700i is a big performer made for
small fireplaces. The compact shape is specially designed
to fit into today's factory-built fireplaces with ease,
converting them into highly efficient heat sources. The
contemporary design and flush front work nicely with
a wide range of decorating styles. Since it only extends
two inches onto the hearth, it can be installed in most
homes without requiring additional hearth protection.
Three door styles are available to match your décor.
