Flameko Leura 152cm Electric Fireplace (Black, 60 Inch)

Can I mount a TV above this electric fireplace?

Yes, the Flameko Leura is specifically designed to support TV mounting above the unit. The cool-touch front glass and efficient heat distribution mean the area above remains at safe temperatures for electronic equipment. The 20cm projection depth provides adequate clearance for wall-mounted TVs whilst maintaining proper ventilation.

How do I access the instruction manual inside the unit?

The front glass panel removes to access the full instruction manual stored inside. Look for small tabs or clips along the bottom edge of the glass panel. Gently pull these tabs whilst lifting the glass panel upward and outward. The glass is designed to be removable for maintenance and initial setup, though the process requires careful handling.

What are the power requirements for installation?

The fireplace requires a standard 13-amp electrical outlet and draws between 900W and 1800W depending on heat settings. No special wiring or gas connections are needed. The unit plugs into any standard UK mains socket, making installation straightforward for most homeowners. Ensure your electrical circuit can handle the maximum 1800W load.

Can the flame effects operate without the heater running?

Absolutely. The LED flame effects operate completely independently from the heating elements. This allows you to enjoy the ambiance and visual appeal throughout the year, even during warm weather when heating isn't required. The flame-only mode consumes minimal electricity whilst providing maximum visual impact for your living space.

What maintenance does this electric fireplace require?

Maintenance is minimal compared to traditional fireplaces. Periodically dust the exterior with a soft cloth and vacuum the air intake areas to maintain efficient operation. The LED lights have extremely long lifespans and rarely require replacement. No chimney cleaning, ash removal, or fuel storage is necessary, making this a low-maintenance heating solution.

How much wall space is needed for installation?

The unit measures 152cm wide by 43cm high and projects 20cm from the wall when wall-mounted. Allow additional clearance around the edges for proper ventilation and aesthetic spacing. For recessed installation, you'll need to create a cavity in the wall that accommodates these dimensions whilst maintaining structural integrity.

Is professional installation required?

Professional installation isn't mandatory but may be advisable for wall mounting to ensure secure attachment. The 28kg weight requires proper wall anchors and mounting brackets rated for this load. Electrical connection is straightforward as it uses a standard plug, but recessed installation typically requires professional carpentry and electrical work to modify wall structures safely.

What's included with the fireplace purchase?

The package includes the main fireplace unit, remote control, wall mounting brackets, decorative log and crystal fuel bed elements and installation hardware. The instruction manual is stored inside the unit behind the removable front glass panel. All necessary components for basic wall mounting are provided, though additional tools may be required for installation.
