Frequently asked questions
Is Optiflame 3D realistic?
Yes. Optiflame 3D gives the flames depth and movement rather than a flat picture, which looks far more natural in person.
Do electric fires give off heat?
Yes. This one has an electric fan heater of up to 2kW, which warms the room you are sitting in. You can also run the flame effect on its own with no heat.
Do I need a chimney for an electric fire?
No. Electric fires need no chimney or flue, which is why they suit newer homes and rooms where the chimney has been removed.
Can I use the flame without the heat?
Yes. You can enjoy the flame effect all year round with the heater switched off.
Do you install it?
Yes. We supply across Warrington and the surrounding areas and inset fires run from a standard socket or a fused spur.
