Fontana People - Outdoor Wood-fired Oven 80X45 cm

The Fontana People outdoor wood-fired oven is an ideal solution for indirect outdoor cooking. Characterised by its essential and minimalist contours, this oven combines design and functionality, ensuring high performance and versatile use.

With a cooking chamber measuring 80×45 cm, it allows cooking on three levels at the same time thanks to the CLEVER ventilation system, which ensures even heat distribution. The internal lighting also facilitates the monitoring of cooking phases, making the experience even more practical and enjoyable.

Designed for wood-fired operation, the Fontana People boasts a sturdy structure and 118 x 101 x 173 cm outer dimensions, ideal for installation in various outdoor settings. The cooking chamber, with a height of 40 cm, is designed to provide plenty of space for various preparations, while the hourly consumption of approximately 3.4 kg of wood ensures economical and sustainable operation.

The included accessories complete the package, making this wood-fired oven a comprehensive and ready-to-use product. Included in the package are a refractory plate, a food pan, two chrome-plated grids, a fire poker, a chimney and a thermometer. The chimney diameter of 150 mm ensures proper smoke discharge, maintaining a safe and comfortable environment during use.

Distinctive features:

• CLEVER ventilation system for cooking on three levels.
• Internal lighting to monitor cooking.
• Large cooking chamber (80×45×40 cm).
• Sturdy structure with 118 x 101 x 173 cm outer dimensions.
• Accessories included: refractory plate, grills, chimney, and more.

The oven is made of extremely rust-resistant black electro galvanised steel, while the side panels are made of steel.

The doors are also incredibly robust and resistant, equipped with a practical release system for complete closure.

In general, the entire structure of this wood-fired oven is very robust thanks to the thickness and quality of the various types of steel used.

This particularity leads it to have a high weight in its category: 250 kg

The ventilation system is certainly one of the most high-tech among those currently fitted in ovens on the market. The cooking chamber, made of special stainless steel, is separated from the combustion chamber by a triple layer consisting of:

• A steel top;
• Refractory plate.

This allows even heat distribution over the entire surface of the oven and prevents the formation of zones at different temperatures, which are detrimental to even baking. The vast majority of wood-fired ovens on the market today are equipped with the ventilation motor at the bottom of the cooking chamber, with direct air emission from the rear of the chamber.

Ventilation is channelled under the refractory slab, as well as laterally.

Focus on the base refractory slab that can be used directly for baking pizzas, bread, cakes, and many others.

The central body of the oven, consisting of the combustion chamber and the cooking chamber, is insulated with a layer of rock wool, allowing for a constant temperature to be maintained inside the chamber, thus avoiding excessive heating of the oven's outer sheets and excessive heat loss to the outside, which could cause a drop in thermal efficiency with a consequent increase in wood consumption.

To eliminate air humidity and make the environment drier inside the cooking chamber, a special "exhaust" is provided for the vapour outlet.

This vapour "exhaust" must absolutely not be modified or connected to piping.

The oven is equipped with 2 convenient support grids,

Exceptionally sturdy doors, which emphasise the great robustness of this oven.

The upper door is equipped with a large, high-visibility glass pane to achieve an almost hermetic seal of the door.

The firewood support grate is made of sturdy sheet metal, and it is equipped with various anti-deformation slots and has an ash drawer at the bottom. It can be easily removed thanks to the convenient side guides.

The flue pipe is fitted with a regulating valve: once the desired temperature is reached, reducing the smoke outlet means keeping the heat generated inside and thus a more stable temperature and less wood consumption.

Flue pipe diameter: 15 cm.

The oven is equipped with electric lighting.

The position of the chimney has been designed to optimise the "suction" and the path of the hot fumes, which evenly lap the cooking chamber without the formation of "preferential paths" that could cause excessive heating of certain parts.

SMOKE VALVE AIR ADJUSTMENT: When the air register is closed, a flow of air passing through the lower part of the door is still guaranteed. The same thing happens with the smoke valve in closed mode, where a flow of smoke out is guaranteed to avoid stagnation and a build-up of carbon dioxide.
