Product Information

Full details

The Dimplex Clement CMT20CH is an ideal heating and aesthetic solution for homeowners seeking a stylish, versatile electric fireplace that fits standard 16 or 18-inch openings. It provides a realistic log-effect ambiance with energy-efficient LED flame technology and flexible installation options, allowing for either an inset or freestanding setup. While it excels at providing cozy, adjustable top-up warmth, it is designed primarily for supplemental heating rather than as a primary heat source for large living spaces.

FAQs

Can I use the flame effect without the heat?

Does this fireplace require a chimney?

No, as an electric fire, the Dimplex Clement does not require a chimney or flue to operate.

What is the maximum heat output?

The unit offers a maximum heat output of 2000W.

What is the depth of the unit when used as a freestanding fire?

Will this fit in an 18-inch opening?

Troubleshooting

Flame effect is on but there is no heat.

Check that the thermostat is set to a temperature higher than the room temperature and ensure the heat setting switch (1000W/2000W) is engaged.

The unit makes a noise while heating.

Ensure the fan heater vents are free of dust buildup, as blocked airflow can cause the internal fan to strain.

Unit will not turn on.

Check that the power plug is fully inserted into the wall socket and verify that the socket is switched on.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Installation of the CMT20CH is straightforward due to its compatibility with standard UK fireplace dimensions. For an inset installation, ensure your opening meets the 62.3cm height and roughly 40-52cm width requirements. If opting for a freestanding installation, attach the provided spacer frame securely to transition the unit to a flush-wall mount. Maintenance is minimal; ensure the air intake and output vents remain clear of dust and debris to prevent overheating. Use a soft, dry cloth to clean the chrome surface—avoid abrasive cleaners that could scratch the polished finish. Ensure the unit is positioned within 1.5m of a suitable power outlet and never use an extension lead for permanent installation.
