Product Information

Full details

The Flameko Verona Electric Fireplace Insert is designed for individuals living in flats or apartments, or anyone looking to add a modern, convenient focal point to their living space. Its key advantage is the realistic flame effect and efficient heating capabilities combined with easy installation. A potential consideration is that while the flame is realistic, it is an electric effect, not a natural flame.

FAQs

Can I use the flame effect without the heater?

Yes, the Flameko Verona Electric Fireplace Insert allows you to operate the realistic LED flame effect independently, providing ambiance without generating heat. This is ideal for warmer days or just for decorative purposes.

What size fireplace opening does this insert fit?

This insert is designed for quick and easy installation into standard 16-inch or 18-inch fireplace openings. A 75mm spacer is included to help ensure a proper fit.

How many heat settings does it have?

The fireplace insert features two heat settings: 1000W and 2000W. These allow you to adjust the heat output based on your room's needs and desired comfort level.

Does it come with a remote control?

Yes, it includes a remote control with an LCD display. This remote allows you to easily adjust all available fireplace settings, including flame color, heat settings, and more, from a distance.

Is this fireplace insert safe to use?

Absolutely. The Flameko Verona is equipped with overheating protection for safety. It is also UKCA, CE certified, and Eco Design 2018 Compliant, assuring it meets relevant safety and environmental standards.

Can I install this myself?

Yes, the insert is designed for quick and easy installation. However, if you are unsure about electrical connections or fitting into your specific fireplace, consulting a qualified professional is always recommended.

How do I change the flame colors?

You can change between the 9 available flame color options using the included remote control. Refer to your user manual for specific button functions.

Troubleshooting

The fireplace insert will not turn on or respond to the remote control.

Check if the power cord is securely plugged into a working electrical outlet. Ensure the main power switch on the unit (if present) is in the 'on' position. Replace the batteries in the remote control if necessary.

No heat is being produced, but the flame effect is working.

Verify that a heat setting (1000W or 2000W) has been selected using the remote control. Check for any obstructions in the air intake or outlet vents which might trigger the overheating protection. Unplug, wait 5-10 minutes, and plug back in to reset the unit.

The flame effect is not working, but the heater works.

Ensure the flame effect button on the remote control or unit control panel has been pressed. Check if the LED lights are faulty; if so, contact customer support.

The heater makes unusual noises.

Unusual noises can sometimes be caused by dust build-up. Unplug the unit and gently clean the fan and vents. If the noise persists, it may indicate an internal issue, and you should contact customer support.

Remote control is not interacting with the fireplace.

Check and replace the remote control batteries. Ensure there are no obstructions between the remote and the fireplace's receiver. Try moving closer to the unit.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup

  2. Positioning: Ensure your fireplace opening is either 16" or 18" wide. The insert is designed to fit snugly into these standard sizes.
  3. Spacer Installation (if needed): If your opening requires it, utilize the included 75mm spacer to ensure a flush fit.
  4. Electrical Connection: Plug the unit into a standard wall socket. Ensure the power cord is not pinched or obstructed.
  5. Test: Turn on the unit using the remote control to check both flame effects and heater functionality.

Compatibility

  • Designed for quick and easy installation into existing 16-inch or 18-inch fireplace openings. It is an ideal replacement for old electric or gas fires.
  • Requires a standard electrical outlet for power.

Care

  • Cleaning: Ensure the unit is unplugged before cleaning. Use a soft, damp cloth to wipe down the exterior. Do not use abrasive cleaners or solvents.
  • Air Intake/Outlet: Regularly check that the air intake and outlet vents are clear of dust and debris to maintain efficient heating and prevent overheating. You can use a soft brush or vacuum cleaner attachment to gently clean these areas.
  • Storage: If storing for an extended period, ensure the unit is clean, dry, and stored in a safe place, ideally in its original packaging.
