Contractors Model fireplace with moulding: a raw shell plus a cast arched surround
The American Fyre Designs Contractors Model fireplace with moulding is an unfinished outdoor fireplace shell that measures 67 inches wide, 37 inches deep, and 91 inches tall. Smooth cast-stone moulding frames the firebox with an arched header. The surround is finished, while the body is ready for your stone, brick, or stucco. It is made from concrete reinforced with glass fibers, which looks like stone at a fraction of the weight.
Order it for natural gas or propane. On the page, you choose a vented or vent-free firebox and the Real Fyre gas log set that goes inside, with options ranging from match lighting to remote control or electronic ignition. You also choose which side the key valve sits on and whether gas enters from the back or underneath. The body, chimney, hearth assembly, and firebox liners are included. Prefer to finish the opening yourself? See the plain Contractors Model fireplace. The Contractors Model fireplace with moulding ships free from My Cozy Outdoors with No Sales Tax (except WY) and the full manufacturer warranty.

FAQ
How does the Moulding version differ from the standard model?
It carries cast moulding detail, giving the finished fireplace built-in trim lines rather than plain flat faces – part of the profile work arrives already done. It stands 91 inches tall, five inches under the plain Contractors Model, and shares the same ready-to-finish concept: an unfinished exterior waiting for your choice of stone, tile, brick, or stucco.
How large is the Moulding version overall?
The shell measures 67 inches wide, 37 inches deep, and 91 inches tall – just over seven and a half feet of height before it is dressed. Remember that stone, brick, or tile facing adds thickness beyond those figures, so lay out your patio or outdoor kitchen around the clad dimensions rather than the bare shell.
Does stucco work over the moulded exterior?
Yes – stucco is one of the finishes the model is designed to take, alongside stone, tile, and brick. A stucco coat over the moulded profile leans classic Mediterranean or Spanish Colonial, while brick or stone reads more traditional. The unfinished exterior accepts whatever direction your outdoor living space calls for, so the trim detail works across styles.
Can this fireplace anchor an outdoor kitchen?
Outdoor kitchens are one of its intended homes, along with patios, poolside seating areas, and landscape projects. Because you control the finish, the fireplace can be faced in the same material as your counters and surrounds, so the kitchen and hearth feel planned together rather than purchased separately – a tailored centerpiece instead of a standalone appliance.
Will it read as true masonry once finished?
Once faced in brick or stone, the moulded profile and full-height proportions give it the presence of a traditional masonry hearth – guests will not spot the difference. If that established, permanent look is the goal, this model and our other masonry fireplaces get you there with the finish material of your choice.
Is the shell durable before the facing goes on?
Yes. It is handcrafted in the USA from glass fiber reinforced concrete, built to handle outdoor environments, and certified to ANSI standards. The material provides a strong, long-lasting structure on its own – the facing you apply is decoration, not structural reinforcement – so the shell holds up while your finishing plans come together.
How much finish material will I need for this fireplace?
Work from the shell’s faces: it runs 67 inches wide and 91 inches tall with 37-inch-deep sides, and your stone or tile supplier can calculate coverage from those measurements. Buy from a single lot so color stays consistent across the whole fireplace, and have your installer confirm quantities before delivery day.
Outdoor Fireplace Guide
The Centerpiece of Your Outdoor Living Space
Create enticing outdoor ambiance with an American Fyre Designs™ outdoor fireplace. Each one is expertly handcrafted from innovative glass fiber reinforced concrete (GFRC) — the look and feel of carved stone at a fraction of the weight — with a variety of styles, finishes, and options to select the right fireplace for you. Most models are also available in vent-free versions, which lets you place your fireplace in a lanai or other covered outdoor area.
Modular by Design, Easy to Assemble
Every fireplace is modularly constructed as easy-to-assemble components, so it goes from delivery to first fire without a full masonry build. Prefer a custom look? On most fireplaces the exterior may be recessed to accommodate field cladding in tile, stone, or other veneer — so your fireplace can match the home it belongs to.
- Modular, easy-to-assemble components
- Recessed exterior on most models accepts tile, stone, or other veneer cladding
- Herringbone firebox liners included on most fireplaces (excluding Milan models)
- Handcrafted GFRC in a range of finishes
Vented or Vent-Free — Your Space Decides
Most American Fyre Designs fireplaces are available in both vented and vent-free versions. Choose vent-free and you can locate your fireplace in a lanai or other covered outdoor area. All vent-free fireplaces are blocked at the top and throat of the firebox.

What Our Customers Say
D
A sauna turns your garden into a spa oasis. We debated it for a while, but after renovating our house, we pulled the trigger and bought a sauna from Norse Steam and Maya. She was always super responsive and helpful throughout the process. Don't kid yourself, getting a really nice sauna is not that easy. Sizing and heating need to be figured out, as does the building, but we have always had a helpful partner on our side. She never upsold us on anything we didn't need, and we got some nice freebies when the sauna was delivered. And now we can really enjoy every moment in our garden.
KF
I'm really happy with my sauna purchase. Maya gave above and beyond excellent customer service. She wasn't pushy and gave impressive followup after the delivery to make sure everything was just right.
DE
I enjoy my FD2 Sauna with Red Light, Infrared and radiant heat. Use it 5x a week and my post workout soreness is minimal and sleep great. Maya at Norse Steam was excellent to work with.
B
We purchased the 3-person sauna for our outdoor garden. We chose the cube sauna for the aesthetic and could not be happier.
I assembled by myself except for the 2 large panels (requires a few people). Instructions were good - took me two partial Saturdays to complete and a few hours to unpack and organize in advance of assembly. Had my elec. add a NEMA enclosure on the back for the controller and power for lights and a 2nd panel for the wireless control.
Customer service was excellent

Awesome Sauna and Awesome Company and Experience purchasing it from Maya!
After much research I chose the Finnmark FD-2 and it has met and exceeded all my expectations! Easy to assemble and it functions great - just as advertised. I highly recommend it for home use!
EA
Recently purchased the Finnmark one person after much research. Extremely happy with it and the ordering process. Maya was very responsive and helpful during the process and keeping us updated while we waited for shipment. There were several places I could have ordered this, but i chose Norse Steam based on the communication and customer service which was fantastic. The shipment was also excellent. The setup was pretty seamless for two people - but the best part is the sauna experience 10/10

Maya is amazing - super helpful and responsive. Looked at many stores, these guys have the best prices and service. Highly recommend
GR
Norse Steam, and specifically Maya, were extremely helpful as I was making the decision for our Sauna. I was able to get all of the necessary details to make a decision as construction was happening in my backyard to make space for it.
We absolutely love the CL7G. It is extremely comfortable for 6 people (can fit more less comfortably). The Thermory Spruce and Aspen in the interior smells great. The lighting is lovely. We paired the CL7G with the Harvia Spirit 10.5kw.
RS
Had great experience shopping at Norse Steam for the new heater. They had very good deal, with rocks. Customer service was good, and responded very fast with my questions. Received the heater, and it looks good, and the quality seem to be great. Will install soon, and am very excited to start experiencing sauna the way it ment to be

Smoking Hot Tub!
I got the Norse Steam SaunaLife wood-fired hot tub, the S4N model, and its been seriously great. It heats up quicker than I expected, usually around an hour and a half, and once its hot, it stays that way for a good long while. The wood-fired system is simple to use, and honestly kind of fun.
The tub itself feels solid and well put together. The thermo-spruce exterior looks beautiful in person, and the fiberglass interior is smooth, deep, and easy to clean. Its the kind of setup that just works without a bunch of fuss, which I really appreciate.
Also, the team at Norse Steam was genuinely great to work with. Super helpful, quick to respond, and made the process really easy from start to finish. It felt like they actually cared that I was happy with it. The tub has totally become a go-to way to unwind, and I wouldnt change a thing.

Great Sauna & Purchase Experience
Great experience purchasing Finnmark FD-2 from Norse Steam. Good communication and easy to assemble. Temperature increases quickly (30 minutes or less to 140) and maintains well. So far this has been a great purchase.
M
Great sauna and great customer service
We purchased the Finnmark SD-1 sauna. Maya was extremely helpful with the purchase. We had an issue with the sauna not reaching the maximum temperature, and Maya connected us with the appropriate technician that explained how to correct the issue. The sauna now heats to the maximum temperature (170 degrees) in less than an hour, and it is a great unit. We are very happy with it, and we would definitely purchase from NorseSteam if we needed any other items.

Sauna Review
I recently purchased a sauna from Norse Steam, and I couldn't be more impressed with the entire experience. From start to finish, their customer service was exceptional, and Maya deserves special recognition for her outstanding support!
Maya was incredibly knowledgeable and patient, answering all my questions about the sauna features, installation process, and maintenance. She went above and beyond to ensure I selected the perfect model for my home. Even after the purchase, Maya followed up to make sure everything was running smoothly and that I was satisfied with my sauna.
The sauna itself is top-notch beautifully designed, durable, and easy to use. It's clear that Norse Steam takes pride in the quality of their products and their commitment to customer satisfaction.
If you're considering a sauna, I wholeheartedly recommend Norse Steam. With their excellent customer service and high-quality products, you're in great hands. Thank you, Maya, and the entire Norse Steam team for a fantastic experience!
