Water Fireplace - No Need for a Chimney

A water vapor fireplace insert can effortlessly be placed into an existing fireplace or stove, eliminating the need for a chimney. This makes installation a breeze, allowing for versatile placement in virtually any space. Powered solely by electricity, the water vapor fire insert is straightforward to install, requiring minimal setup.

In contrast to traditional wood-burning stoves, vapor electric fire inserts produce no pollutants and demand minimal upkeep. This eco-friendly alternative generates captivating flames without the hazards of combustion, ensuring a clean and safe environment.

How does a Water Vapour Fireplace work?

A vapor fireplace insert showcases the innovative Opti-Myst technology, patented by Faber. This cutting-edge system harnesses the power of light and water to produce stunning, lifelike flames. While vapor electric fire inserts operate via an electric power source, they don't function as heaters like traditional fireplaces or wood-burning stoves. However, they offer the allure of realistic, decorative flames for your home.

Typically, vapor electric fires include a separate built-in water tank, where water vapor is generated by a specialized generator. Small LED lamps then heat the air and propel the steam upward, creating the illusion of authentic flames. With an extended burning time, ranging between 7 to 10 hours per liter of water, vapor fireplace inserts provide enduring ambiance, although specific burn times may vary.

Notably, a water vapor fire insert produces no odors and contributes to a healthy indoor environment, as its flames are solely generated using electricity and water. This eco-friendly alternative stands as a compelling choice compared to traditional wood-burning stoves or fireplaces.

What is a Freestanding Insert?

Distinguishing between different fireplace categories can be challenging, especially when considering the subtle technical variations. For instance, inserts and freestanding fireplaces each offer unique benefits tailored to individual preferences. However, the freestanding insert serves as a user-friendly and simplified amalgamation of the two, making it notably easier to integrate into one's home.

In essence, a freestanding insert fireplace is entirely self-sufficient and doesn't require specific installation procedures. Unlike conventional fireplaces that often need to be mounted directly onto a wall or mantel, the freestanding insert can be effortlessly placed anywhere desired, much like any other decor item. This versatility facilitates easy relocation, particularly useful when rearranging decorations or furniture. Thus, its freestanding nature stems from its independence, while its insert functionality typically accommodates fitting into mantels or wall recesses.
