The beauty of a real fire, the simplicity of electric

We all love the idea or a wood burning stove – that feeling of warmth, comfort and cosiness. But for many of us, a real stove is not feasible due to installation issues or we simply don’t have the time or inclination to chop logs and regularly clean the fire out. So for anyone wanting the charm of a wood-burning stove but with all the hassle-free benefits of an electric fire, then look no further than the Dimplex Optimyst and Optiflame range of electric stoves.
From easy installation to family safety, the benefits of electric stoves are certainly plain to see!
Quick and painless installation
Fast and safe, installation couldn’t be easier with electric stoves. Simply plug into a standard 240v 3kW (13 amp) socket and switch on! Electric fires and stoves aren’t subject to the same strict regulations that gas appliances and solid fuel stoves are faced with. For instance, electric fires don’t require a chimney, flue, pipework or even a fireplace, so all you need to do is choose where to place it, and they look great in living rooms, dining rooms, and even bedrooms.
Easy to operate
Heat and an impression of flames are instantly available at the flick of a switch. For your ultimate convenience, many can even be operated from the comfort of your sofa using a handy remote control.
Year-round enjoyment
When your room is sufficiently toasty, the impressive flame effect can be used independently of heat, meaning the calming feel of a cosy log fire can be enjoyed all year round, including when the whole-house system is already doing the work heating the home or heating is simply not needed.

No energy is wasted
Dimplex’s electric fires are 100% efficient. All the energy consumed by the heater is turned into heat, so no heat is lost up a chimney or flue. With accurate thermostats and half heat settings on all our stoves, the fire will use precisely the right amount of electricity needed to maintain the comfortable level of warmth you set for the room.
Safe and reliable
Electric fires don’t burn fuel internally to generate heat so there are none of the associated safety risks of other fuels and they also require minimal or no maintenance. All our electric stoves are also independently approved to Europe’s highest electrical product safety standard [BEAB].

Endless design options
Our range of stoves offer different flame technologies from our premium Opti-V, through to the amazingly realistic 3D Optimyst and the original and lower cost Optiflame. So, whatever your lifestyle, room size or budget we have a stove to suit you.
