What Makes Fontana Forni Different

Fontana Forni blends durable construction with proven cooking performance:

  • Italian-engineered firebrick construction: Retains heat efficiently for even cooking.

  • High temperature capability: Reaches and holds the high heat (typically 900–1000°F+) needed for Neapolitan-style pizza.

  • Spacious cooking chamber: Large enough for multiple pizzas or other dishes at once.

  • Aesthetic design: Combines performance with a look that integrates well into patios and outdoor kitchens.

Fontana Forni focuses on delivering real cooking performance rather than features that don’t contribute to results.


Types of Fontana Forni Outdoor Pizza Ovens

Fontana Forni offers multiple pizza oven models tailored to different outdoor spaces and cooking styles:

Professional & Classic Series

  • Traditional wood-fired ovens for pure performance.

  • Heavy firebrick floor and dome for better heat retention.

  • Ideal for pizza, bread, roasts, and more.

Built-In & Modular Options

  • Take-your-oven outdoor kitchens to the next level.

  • Designed for integration into custom outdoor islands.

Portable/Countertop Series

  • Compact options for patios and decks with flexible setup.

  • Great for casual cooks and smaller outdoor spaces.

Each type serves a different use case — from dedicated pizza cooks to multi-purpose outdoor kitchen chefs.


How Fontana Forni Ovens Cook

Unlike gas or electric ovens, wood-fired pizza ovens create high, radiant heat and a unique flavor profile:

  • Wood fuel adds smoke flavor: Enhances pizzas and other foods.

  • Firebrick stores and radiates heat: Creates even cooking across the floor and dome.

  • High temperature = fast cooking: Authentic pizzas cook in 60–90 seconds at peak heat.

These characteristics give Fontana Forni ovens an edge for traditional pizza and versatile outdoor cooking.


What to Consider When Choosing a Fontana Forni Oven

Before selecting a pizza oven, think about:

  • Fuel type: Traditional wood heat vs optional hybrid setups.

  • Cooking capacity: Size of the chamber and how many pizzas you’ll cook at once.

  • Placement & clearances: Safe clearance from combustibles and space for use.

  • Integration vs freestanding: Built-in island vs countertop setup.

We help customers choose the right model for how they cook and what fits their space.
