One of the most enjoyable features in a home is a fireplace, creating a dynamic focal point that makes the space more inviting and comfortable. With dramatic flame effects, sparkling embers and an enchanting ambience, designers can create the magic of a real fire and more with electric.

Fireplaces are common in family sized homes and there is now a growing desire from apartment owners to have a fireplace — an eye-catching modern centre-piece to the room that doesn't take up precious floor space.

Ideal for apartment living, electric fireplaces take up little space and offer flexibility with styling a key concern for those living in tighter spaces. The Gazco eReflex ECO design compliant firebox inserts and wall-mounted fires offer a wide range of customisation options to accommodate needs and design tastes. The ease of installation also provides more flexibility in terms of where it can be located and creates a far smaller footprint. Underutilised corners in a room can become more useful with the addition of an eReflex electric fire or mounted within an entertainment unit or bookshelf.

Are electric fireplaces realistic? Yes! Electric fireplace technology has come a long way in recent years and today’s models now produce amazingly realistic flames. The Gazco eReflex electric fireplaces have authentic features, including realistic flames and logs.

Unlike a wood-burning or gas fireplace, electric fireplaces don't burn wood or have a fuel source to create a real fire and therefore don’t require a flue, vent or chimney system which can be difficult and often impossible to install within an apartment. Electric fireplaces rely on LED lights, colours, and advanced technology to create a realistic fireplace that is visually appealing and also easy to install.

As there is no combustion or flame, electric fires are completely safe for apartments and don’t carry a carbon monoxide risk.

Electric fireplaces can also reduce carbon footprints because they don’t produce emissions or smoke that is released into the air, making them an environmentally-friendly choice that is safer for indoor air quality.

With the push of a button on a remote control, the fireplace turns on and off. The programmable thermostatic eco remote provides greater control over the heating and if heat isn't required, the flame effect can still function providing the continual ambient glow.

The design possibilities are almost limitless with the eReflex electric range, a zero emission, highly energy efficient, eco-friendly, cost effective fireplace solution for apartments, small spaces, and retirement villages.
