Sfeer in huis creëren met een elektrische haard

Now that the days are getting colder and we have to stay at home a lot, it is nice to create some extra atmosphere in the house. Have you ever thought about a cosy fireplace? This is the perfect solution! An electric fire instantly creates atmosphere in any place in the house, but also in a hotel or office. Firepit-online.com has a nice assortment of atmospheric fireplaces with renowned brands like Dimplex, Livin’ flame and Eurom. In this blog, we will outline the advantages and possibilities of an electric fire.

Electric fireplaces are suitable for all rooms that need atmosphere and decoration. There are different types of fireplaces and flame technologies, but first of all you might ask yourself: Why would I choose an electric fire?

 

3 advantages of an electric ambient fire:

1. Low-maintenance and easy to maintain

Electric fireplaces are low-maintenance and easy to maintain. It is limited to the refilling of the water and a periodic service.

2. Environmentally friendly

Electric fireplaces are environmentally friendly. There are no emissions of harmful gases, there is no combustion and no use of oxygen. Completely sustainable!

3. Easy operation

The operation of atmospheric fireplaces is often very easy. With one push on the remote control, the atmospheric heaters are easy to operate.

Compared to, for example, a bio ethanol fire, an electric fire is also completely safe for anyone who comes near the fire and flames. Bio ethanol fireplaces are often more expensive to operate than electric fireplaces. The water and energy consumption of electric fireplaces is minimal.

In short: the operation of electric fires is comfortable, simple, safe and sustainable!

 

Sustainable living

Sustainable and gas-free living is a current topic and perhaps the future. In fact, many newly built houses already have no gas connection. Yet you don't have to miss out on the fine atmosphere of a fireplace. With an electric fire, you bring the warmth of a fireplace into your home, without a gas connection or flue. Future-proof and atmospheric, a win-win situation!

Many electric fireplaces are also equipped with a special LED technology that provides the right light intensity. Take the Dimplex Cassette 500 Opti-myst for example. The Cassette 500 is a luxurious built-in fire with energy-efficient LED lighting (instead of halogen). This LED lighting provides a beautiful glow which makes it seem as if the logs are really glowing. A sustainable option!

Enthusiastic?

If you are convinced of the advantages that an electric stove offers, there are still many options to choose from. There are different flame technologies and different types of stoves. Let's start with the type of stove.

Do you prefer a freestanding stove or a built-in stove that can be fitted tightly into a wall? There are many interior design options. Also hanging fireplaces and insert fireplaces belong to the assortment of Firepit-online.com. Enough to choose from!

Besides the type of fireplace, there are also different types of flame technology. Dimplex occupies a very prominent position in Europe with a wide range of high-quality fireplaces and stoves and has many flame technologies to its name such as the Opti-V®, Opti-myst®, Optiflame® and Revillusion®. We have listed the various technologies for you below:

Dimplex Opti-Virtual®

Every Dimplex Opti-Virtual® stove uses the latest HDTV technology for the flame and spark image. This unique, patented system combines the image of flickering flames and three-dimensional logs with glowing LEDs, from which sparks occasionally appear to jump. The sound of crackling wood completes the experience of a real fire. An ambient fire with Opti-Virtual technology is, for example, the Dimplex Opti-Virtual Single.

Dimplex Opti-myst®

Light and water mist can be enough to see 'flames'. In every Dimplex stove with Opti-myst® technology there is a water tank under the glow bed from which a fogger (transducer) produces water mist. Lamps behind the water tank heat the air, which transports the mist upwards. The rising water mist is distributed over the annealing bed and reflects in the LED or halogen light. This creates a lively flickering fire image, just like a real flame. The three-dimensional Opti-myst® fire effect can be viewed from all angles.

Enjoy the unique flame effect of your Dimplex home. Easily adjustable, with sparks that seem to jump away from the logs. This is possible with the patented Opti-myst® electric technology. One ambient fire with Opti-myst technology is the Dimplex Cassette 500.

Dimplex Optiflame®

Fire from mirrors! The secret behind electric stoves with Optiflame® technology is a moving mirror shaft. Like the blades of a propeller, curved and mutually rotated mirror elements are attached to this. This creates the largest and most irregular reflective surface possible, on which the light can refract in countless ways. And that contributes to the fire effect; the more individual elements move among themselves, the more realistic the flickering of the 'flames' ... just like real flames. An ambient fire with Optiflame technology is, for example, the Dimplex Prism 5051 Optiflame.

Dimplex Revillusion®

Revillusion® is the latest flame technology and a new milestone in electric fire. In the masonry hearth interior, there is an unprecedented view of lifelike flames. These flames rise without reflection from the centre of the stove out of the lifelike sparkling wood set. With the easy-to-use remote control, the light colour and intensity can be adjusted in many ways. The light image can be optimally adjusted to the desired atmosphere, the style and the surrounding light. A popular electric fireplace based on the Revillusion technique is, for example, the Dimplex Revillusion 36” Built-in Firebox.
