Fireplace Inspiration Details – North Perth, WA

This stunning home in North Perth exemplifies a captivating contemporary style that seamlessly blends contrasting design elements. The light walls and furniture contrast with the dark floors and accessories, creating a beautiful modern aesthetic. This style is further elevated by the installation of the Lopi 6015 HO GS2 gas fireplace, which utilises a black 10mm trim and CoolSmart vent to accentuate the sleek aesthetic of the surrounding dark features. With over 1.5m of viewing area and installed into an open kitchen, dining and living floorplan, the 6015 creates the perfect focal point for this amazing home.

The Lopi 6015 fireplace is equipped with an array of advanced features and technologies. One notable feature is the ceramic viewing glass, which increases the amount of radiant heat produced enabling it to heat up to 260Sqm, ideal for the open plan living area in this home. The convection heat output from the blower system ensures that this living space is efficiently heated on those cold winter nights.

As part of our premium linear gas fireplace range, the 6015 includes the GreenSmart 2 (GS2) system. With the GS2 remote, you have full control over the heat output of this unit. You can adjust the gas output to control the flame intensity over six intervals. Additionally, you can regulate the 6-speed quiet fans to manage the convection heat output. The GS2 system is also equipped with our Smart Thermostat function, which when activated will cause the fireplace to modulate the flame so that the heat produced matches the desired set temperature. The GS2 system also allows control over the visual aspects of the fireplace, by allowing you to control the intensity of the accent lighting. This feature enables you to operate the fireplace without the flame, making it an ideal decorative piece for warmer seasons.

This install also includes our 72″ CoolSmart Wall Kit System which works by redirecting the heat when the fans are turned off by allowing the convection heat to naturally rise through ventilation tubing and expelling it out of the CoolSmart vent above the TV, thereby reducing the heat output onto fragile electronics without the need for power or fans. This allows for the safe flush-mounting of electronics above the fireplace without the need for a mantle, which further accents the modern style of this beautiful living area.

Other notable features of this installation include the platinum glass floor media, which allows the accent lighting to completely shine through, and the black glass fireback liner that creates a reflection of the flame, adding depth to the fireplace and drawing attention to its beauty. This fireplace also includes the Clear Fire Safety Screen (included as standard), which greatly reduces the risk of injury without obstructing the beauty of the dancing flames

Client Testimonial: “We absolutely love our Lopi fireplace. It creates an additional feature in our living room and provides an ambience where you can sit, unwind and relax on those cold winter days. Definitely a great investment for our new home.”

BRITISH FIRES ELECTRIC FIREPLACE

Why Choose British Fires Electric Fireplaces?

British Fires is a brand known for producing premium electric fireplaces that focus on high-quality craftsmanship, REAL wood, realistic flame effects, and modern designs. They have become a popular choice in the UK and internationally due to their sleek aesthetics and advanced technology.

Re-create The Look Of A Real Fire In Your Home

There is only one place to begin when it comes to the benefits of electric fireplaces, and this is with the fact that they make it possible for you to easily re-create the look of a genuine fireplace in your home. British Fires uses REAL WOOD to create the most realistic fireplace!

Technology has advanced considerably in recent years, enabling British Fires to manufacture electric fires that make it impossible for people to tell the difference between these fires and the real thing.

Deluxe Real Log Fuel Bed

British Fires have a deluxe real log fuel bed available. Each log set is hand-assembled and individually unique. They are created by hand using real logs and offer an unmatched, realistic fuel-bed effect. The logs are scorched and charred and then fixed into place upon a bed of bark, twigs, and log remnants to complete a natural setting. The detail of the logs creates an authentic look and feel which enhances the overall interaction between flame-effect and fuel-bed. The combination of the real split logs and the reflective rear glass produces a beautiful 3D effect of flames dancing between the logs.

Next Level Technology

British Fires use advanced LED technology that boasts deep, real fire colours to create realistic flame effects that closely mimic the look of real wood or gas fires. The flames can be adjusted in terms of brightness and colour to suit the ambiance. It is almost impossible for someone to notice at first glance that it is not a real fire.

Heating Using Air Curtain Technology

Cooler room air is pulled in, heated, and then pushed out via the expertly designed dual-vent heating system. The warmed air is dispersed not just forward but also widely into a room. As the heater sits above the glass the offset trim of the firebox is very narrow. This allows for a contemporary and sleek design.

No Restrictions When It Comes To Installation

A lot of people would love to have a real fireplace in their home, yet it is simply not possible for them to do so. After all, you need to have a chimney, flue, and a number of other elements as well. There are no such restrictions when it comes to an electric fire. All you need to do is plug the electric fire in and turn it on – it is as simple as that. This not only means that the British Fires range can be fitted in your home but it also means that there are many different options in terms of where in your home you install the fire. For example, it could be a statement piece in the hallway or you may decide to install it in the corner of your living room. The possibilities are well and truly endless. This is a great way of boosting the style and value of your property. It can completely transform the feel and look of the room enabling you to fall in love with your home all over again.
