Its clean lines and all flame viewing area combine traditional fireplace character with contemporary design, making it an elegant addition to feature walls, cabinetry, fireplace settings and open living spaces. With indoor and outdoor applications, the Flex 18 offers design flexibility without the need for a traditional chimney or utility connection.

Features

✨ All Flame Design

The Flex 18 is designed specifically for front facing flame visibility, with a single open side that gives you a clear view of the fire.

Its generous viewing area is dedicated to the flame, creating a visually striking feature that can become the centrepiece of a living room, dining area, outdoor room or commercial space.

The sleek black surround complements contemporary interiors while allowing the natural movement of the flame to take visual priority.

🔥 Clean Burning Bioethanol Flame

The Flex 18 features EcoSmart Fire's AB3 burner with a 2.5 litre capacity and an approximate burn time of 8 to 11 hours.

The burner produces approximately 5,800 BTU/h of thermal output and can heat an average area of up to 20 m², depending on the installation environment and operating conditions.

Powered by e NR G bioethanol, the Flex 18 provides a real flame without the need for wood, gas connections or a traditional chimney.

🏡 Indoor and Outdoor Applications

The Flex 18 is suitable for indoor or outdoor installation, giving architects, designers, builders and homeowners greater flexibility when planning a fire feature.

It can be incorporated into a feature wall, cabinetry or fireplace setting, helping create a seamless architectural focal point in residential or commercial environments.

Always ensure the installation meets the manufacturer's requirements and that the physical model dimensions are checked against the required cut out dimensions before installation.

🛠️ True Zero Clearance Design

The self contained zero clearance construction provides greater flexibility when integrating the fireplace into a suitable design.

With no traditional chimney, flue or utility connection required, the Flex 18 can be incorporated into a range of architectural applications while maintaining a clean and streamlined appearance.

Professional installation and compliance with all applicable installation requirements are essential.

🌱 Efficient Heating Without a Traditional Chimney

The Flex fireplace uses a closed combustion system designed to keep heat within the room rather than losing it through a traditional venting system.

The bioethanol burner also eliminates the need for a gas connection or chimney, helping simplify the overall fireplace installation.

🖤 Sleek Black Finish

The Flex 18 features a black mild steel surround with a high temperature powder coated finish. The burner is available in stainless steel or an optional black ceramic coating.

Its understated colour allows the flame to remain the main visual feature while complementing a wide range of contemporary interiors.

🛡️ Safety and Certification

The Flex 18 features a manufacturer approved surround for the BS EN16647 compliant AB3 burner.

The burner is O T L listed to UL 1370, BSI certified to EN16647 and compliant with the ACCC Safety Mandate for bioethanol burners.

The firebox is manufactured to high standards in accordance with ISO 9001:2008.

Always use approved e NR G bioethanol and follow the manufacturer's instructions for installation, filling, lighting, operation and extinguishing.
