Past RSF Models

Reviewed by Tim Reed · Updated November 7, 2026 · 18 discontinued models

Still heating with an older RSF? Here's every discontinued model we found a manual or brochure for: what it was, its specs, the years it sold, and what replaced it. Your model and serial number are on the fireplace's rating label, so check it before you start.

About these links. Every document here comes from RSF and Industrial Chimney Company, or from archived copies of their websites. We check every link weekly and remove any that stop working. Always follow the manual for your exact model. RSF keeps its own archive of previous RSF fireplaces' owner's manuals, from the Chameleon and Delta to the Opel 2000 and Topaz.

Frequently Asked Questions

Where can I find the manual for my old RSF fireplace?

Find your model on this page. Each one links to the owner's manual, installation manual, or brochure we found. The model name and serial number are on the fireplace's rating label, and some links go to archived copies or third-party sites rather than the manufacturer.

Are parts still available for discontinued RSF models?

Usually, yes. Industrial Chimney Company still builds RSF fireplaces in Saint-Jérôme, Quebec, and RSF dealers order parts by model and serial number. Parts for the oldest models can be harder to find, so ask a dealer before you plan a repair.

What replaced my discontinued RSF?

Where we know it, each entry lists the model that replaced it. Many RSF names carry forward, so a discontinued Opel 2000 or Opel 2C is an ancestor of today's Opel Plus fireplaces. Check the current lineup too.
