This fire incorporates a flame effect, which can be used with
or without heating, so that the comforting effect may be
enjoyed at any time of the year. The flame effect is provided
by low wattage motors and two 40 watt lamps. Using the
flame effect on its own, therefore, requires little electricity.
The manual controls and the remote control are located
behind the firebox door. A Choice of 1kw or 2kw
thermostatically controlled heat output is provided by the fan
heater, which is concealed beneath the unit.
