Staryi Saltiv

An individually redesigned stove installation created to replace a flawed earlier construction.
The new design solved smoke issues, improved the layout, and added a small pizza oven, while the entire project — including the artistic painting — was carried out by me.



This project was created as a replacement for an existing outdoor cooking complex that did not meet the client’s expectations.
The main shortcomings of the previous structure were a small grill fireplace, an inconvenient layout, and smoke problems caused by an incorrectly calculated chimney flue cross-section.

A small pizza oven was added to the new complex.
The entire project was completed by me personally — from the initial design and construction to the artistic painting of the stove.

To solve the smoke issue, a smoke exhaust fan was installed on the top of the chimney, and an additional fresh air supply to the room was provided. This was especially important during the colder months, when the windows remained closed and the stove could not operate properly without sufficient air intake.

The complex was built in 2012 and was destroyed in 2022 as a result of the events in Ukraine.
