Bring the visual charm of a traditional fire into your home with the ScandiFlames AquaFire Base 40 Water Vapour Fireplace Insert.

With adjustable flame intensity, remote control operation and up to 8 hours of flame effect per refill, the AquaFire Base 40 is an easy way to enjoy fireplace ambience throughout the year.

Its compact freestanding design makes it particularly useful for enhancing an existing fireplace opening, while its black finish and understated styling complement a range of modern interiors.

Design & Materials ✨

The AquaFire Base 40 combines plastic and steel construction with a compact black finish. Measuring just 39.4 cm wide, it can be incorporated into suitable fireplace settings without dominating the surrounding space.

The water vapour flame effect creates the appearance of a real fire while avoiding the smoke, soot and ash associated with traditional wood burning fireplaces. This makes it an attractive option when you want the atmosphere of a fireplace without the heat or fuel associated with a conventional fire.

Features

Performance & Features ⚡

The AquaFire Base 40 uses Opti Myst water vapour technology together with LED lighting to create a realistic flame effect. The vapour rises through the unit and is illuminated to produce the appearance of flickering flames.

The flame intensity can be adjusted to create the atmosphere you prefer, while the supplied remote control makes operation convenient from across the room. With a 1.3 litre water capacity and consumption of approximately 0.16 litres per hour, the fireplace can provide up to 8 hours of flame effect per refill under the stated operating conditions.

Importantly, the AquaFire Base 40 produces no heat. This allows you to enjoy the visual appeal of a fireplace during warmer months as well as on cooler evenings.

Safety

Indoor Use & Safety 🛡️

The AquaFire Base 40 is designed for indoor use and requires a standard indoor electrical supply. It does not burn wood, gas or bioethanol and therefore does not require a chimney or flue for combustion.

Always follow the manufacturer's operating and installation guidance. Place the unit on a suitable stable surface and keep the electrical components away from water. The water reservoir should be filled and maintained according to the supplied instructions.

Although there is no open combustion flame, children and pets should still be supervised around the appliance. Do not cover the unit or obstruct any required openings.
