Heating Performance and Technology
The Glencoe provides up to 2kW of fan-assisted heat, making it suitable for small to medium-sized rooms as a supplementary heat source. Two heat settings allow you to adjust warmth as needed, while the integrated thermostat helps maintain a consistent room temperature efficiently.
The flame effect operates independently from the heater, allowing you to enjoy the fire’s ambience year-round without generating heat.
Optiflame 3D Flame Effect
At the core of the Glencoe is Dimplex Optiflame 3D technology, which creates a layered flame display with added depth and movement. The system allows you to customise the flame appearance, including colour variation between warm amber tones and cooler blue effects, along with adjustable brightness and downlighting for enhanced realism.
The result is a more immersive and visually dynamic fire effect compared to standard inset electric fires.
Design and Installation
The Glencoe in brass finish features a timeless aesthetic, combining a polished metallic trim with a traditional cast-style fret. This makes it particularly well suited to classic fireplace surrounds, while still working effectively in more contemporary interiors.
Installation is straightforward, requiring only a standard electrical connection with no chimney or flue required. An optional spacer kit may be available depending on installation depth requirements, allowing for greater flexibility in fitting.
