Purfino 60" Electric Fireplace (Black, 152cm)

What are the exact dimensions and will it fit my space?

The front dimensions measure 152.4cm wide, 46.6cm high and 12.5cm deep, whilst the back measures 142.5cm wide, 43.5cm high and 12.5cm deep. The unit weighs 27.5kg and requires adequate wall support for mounting. Both air vents are positioned at the top front, so ensure at least 30cm clearance above the unit for proper ventilation and safe operation.

Can I use the flame effects without heating?

Yes, the flame effects operate completely independently from the heating function. You can enjoy the visual flames, crackling sound effects and mood lighting throughout the year without generating any heat. This energy-saving feature allows you to create ambience during warmer months whilst only consuming power for the LED lighting and sound system rather than the heating elements.

How do I control the different flame colours and settings?

Control the fireplace using either the included remote control or the responsive touchscreen on the unit itself. You can select from 12 different flame colours, adjust flame brightness across 5 levels and choose from 15 top light mood settings. The controls also manage the three heating modes, thermostat settings, timer functions and sound effects independently.

What heating area does this fireplace cover effectively?

The fireplace effectively heats up to 38 square metres when wall-mounted and operating at full 1800W power. The thermostatic control maintains temperatures between 15°C and 30°C automatically. Heating performance may vary based on room insulation, ceiling height and ambient temperature, but it provides substantial warmth for most living spaces, bedrooms or dining rooms.

Is this suitable for built-in installation in a media wall?

Yes, this model is specifically designed for built-in installation including media walls. The compact 12.5cm depth and front-positioned air vents make it ideal for recessed installation. Ensure adequate ventilation space above the unit and follow local building regulations for electrical connections. The sleek black finish and tempered glass front integrate seamlessly with modern media wall designs.

What safety features are included for family use?

Safety features include a cool-touch front screen that remains safe to touch during operation, protecting children and pets from burns. Built-in overheat protection automatically shuts down the unit if internal temperatures exceed safe limits. The fireplace meets UKCA and CE certification standards, ensuring compliance with British and European safety regulations for electrical appliances.

How quiet is the operation and will it disturb sleep?

The fireplace operates very quietly, making it suitable for bedrooms and living areas where noise could be disruptive. The heating fan runs at low noise levels, whilst the flame effects and sound system can be controlled independently. You can mute the crackling sound effects entirely if preferred, leaving only the minimal operational noise from the LED lighting system.

What installation methods are available and which is recommended?

Three installation methods are supported: wall-mounted, freestanding and built-in. Wall mounting provides the cleanest appearance and maximises floor space, whilst built-in installation creates a seamless media wall integration. Freestanding installation offers flexibility but requires a suitable surface. Wall mounting is most popular as it optimises heating distribution and creates an elegant focal point in any room.
