Contemporary electric fireplaces provide a cheaper and cleaner alternative to gas or wood.
With their realistic flame effects and advanced features, modern electric fireplaces have become a true alternative to wood and gas.In the past, electric fireplaces gained a reputation for being less authentic, less powerful, and unable to produce a beautiful flame when compared to more conventional fireplace solutions. However, electric flame technology has evolved and many of these old perceptions no longer hold true.
The Real Flame EVO firebox range uses the patented Revillusion flame effect technology in an elegant design that increases the visual depth of the fireplace and allows decorative ribbed panels to enhance the aesthetic.
To create a warming electric flame effect, ceramic Nordic logs and coals are paired with a glowing ember bed, which creates the perfect ambience for all occasions. This can be further enhanced with various light setting options, from summer bright to midnight cool.
Real Flame modern electric fireplaces are easy and cost-effective to install, with most being “plug and play” — perfect for homes without a gas connection or where running a flue system would be impractical. “In terms of convenience and ease of use, electric fireplaces are unmatched,” says a Real Flame representative. “They can be operated by a mere tap of a finger, which is much easier and cleaner than the process of starting a wood fire.”
Leading solutions also offer advanced features such as multi-function remote controls, temperature control, automatic shut-off times, and a variety of presentation options. Users can program the fireplaces to meet their precise lifestyle need and preferences and can even turn off the heat function to just enjoy the flame!
Not only do these fireplaces have incredible functionality, there is also a wide range of design options to suit any home. From traditional inset fires to hang-on-the-wall contemporary solutions and electric stoves, EVO fireboxes can be found in a wide range of shapes and finishes. The firebox lining can also be customised to match the interior design.
The Real Flame EVO firebox range is available in three sizes: 750, 900 and 900 Portrait. They are safe for children and pets as there is no direct flame, and they do not produce air pollution like wood fires, providing a greener solution for your home.
Electric fireplace inserts are also ideal for zone heating, a heating method that involves heating rooms within the home while keeping the central thermostat lower, so no energy is wasted heating unused areas. “If you live in an apartment, electric fireplaces are the perfect option as they don’t require any use of a chimney or building work as there is no combustion or flame. They are completely safe and don’t carry a carbon monoxide risk,” says a Real Flame representative.
The new Real Flame EVO firebox range starts from $2499. Real Flame has been leading innovation in the fireplace industry from its beginnings in 1983. It values its unique design capabilities, which continue to add warmth and ambience to any home with its modern fireplace designs. Its goal is for people to come home to a warm and safe environment where everyone can relax by the fire.
