The IronStrike Montlake 230 (ML230GL) is a Lodge Collection wood-burning fireplace insert that turns an existing masonry or listed factory-built fireplace into an efficient heater.

It is EPA certified to the 2020 standard and Washington State approved.

Installation Notes
Check the existing fireplace against the minimum cavity, lintel and clearance tables before ordering, and confirm the chimney meets the height and liner rules in the IronStrike manual; a fireplace tested before 1998 needs a full-height listed liner. Do not connect it to a flue serving another appliance, and do not operate it in negative pressure. A certified hearth installer should do the work, with an inspection under local code. New York City does not permit new wood-burning fireplaces or wood-burning heaters (Local Law 38 of 2015); we sell this model for installations outside the five boroughs where local code allows it. Book a free design consultation and we will help you plan the installation.
