TruFlame Premium 80 Inch Media Wall (Black, Built-In)

Can I mount a TV directly above this fireplace?

Yes, you can safely mount TVs, mirrors or other wall-mounted items directly above this fireplace. The unique front heat exit system directs all heat through vents at the front of the unit rather than upwards, eliminating concerns about heat damage to mounted electronics. This design feature makes it perfect for media wall installations where TVs are commonly positioned above fireplaces.

What installation configurations are available?

This fireplace offers three installation configurations: three-sided, corner, or single-sided setups. The three-sided option creates a stunning focal point visible from multiple angles, while the corner configuration maximises space efficiency. The single-sided installation works well for traditional wall mounting. All configurations allow finishing materials to extend to the edge for a completely flush, professional appearance.

How do I control the flame colours and effects?

You have three control methods: the touch panel on the unit, the included remote control and the WiFi smartphone app. The system offers six different flame colours, multiple brightness levels and variable flame speeds. You can also control the ember bed colours independently and adjust the top light effects. The smartphone app provides the most convenient control from anywhere in your home, requiring WiFi connectivity.

What are the running costs for this electric fireplace?

The LED flame effect costs approximately 1 pence to run for four hours, as the LED bulbs are rated at just 5 watts total. The heating function uses 750W or 1500W depending on your selected setting. At current UK electricity rates, the maximum 1500W heating would cost roughly 45p per hour to operate. The flame-only mode without heat is extremely economical for year-round ambiance.

What ember bed materials are included?

The fireplace includes multiple ember bed materials: ceramic loose logs, small clean crystals, dark tea crystals and large clean crystals. This variety allows you to customise the appearance to match your décor preferences. The ceramic logs provide a traditional look, while the crystal options offer more contemporary styling. You can change between materials as desired to refresh the fireplace's appearance.

How quiet is the fireplace during operation?

The fireplace operates very quietly and in flame-only mode, it runs completely silently since only LED lights are active. When heating, the fan produces minimal noise that won't interfere with TV viewing or conversation. The quiet operation makes it suitable for bedrooms, living rooms, or any space where noise levels matter. The quality construction minimises operational sounds compared to cheaper alternatives.

What safety features are built into this fireplace?

The fireplace includes a safety thermal cut-off device that automatically shuts down the unit if overheating occurs, preventing damage or fire hazards. The front heat exit system keeps the surrounding wall cool and the LED flame technology eliminates any real fire risks. The unit is CE compliant, meeting European safety standards. The thermostatic control prevents overheating by maintaining your selected temperature automatically.

What warranty coverage is provided?

This extended warranty demonstrates the manufacturer's confidence in build quality and provides peace of mind for your investment. The warranty covers manufacturing defects and component failures under normal use. TruFlame has been established since 2010, providing reliable customer support and service.
