Dimplex Optiflame Fire Effect


Dimplex Optiflame is the world's most popular electric flame effect, and can be found in a wide selection of Dimplex fires. It is a unique, patented means of generating realistic simulated flames from an electric source and creates the illusion of flames emanating from the centre of an enhanced depth fuel bed to provide a realistic glow that can be enjoyed throughout the whole year.

Dimplex revolutionised the fires market when we launched the first Optiflame effect electric fire in 1988 and since then we have consistantly refined and improved it to the level of perfection that you see today. As a result, we have won numerous awards for our fires and they have also been selected to feature on a number of mainstream TV home interest programmes and in feature pieces at home interest shows.

Please explain 'Optiflame'

Please explain 'Optiflame' - is it a bulb that can be replaced? If it goes wrong, is it costly to have repaired?

Measurements and fixings

My fireplace opening is only just 16". I gather that there is something at the back of your unit that needs to fit inside my fire place. If it does not fit in, will it look odd sticking out?? How do I fix it to the wall or is it free standing?

  • Brilliant service - happy customer

    I have recently purchased, on-line, a Dimplex Optiflame Electric fire through SNH. I cannot fault either SNH or Dimplex who I contacted via email for some extra information. Purchasing through SNH I saved £160 on the shop price. I needed additional information as I was purchasing the fire for my elderly mother so needed to know more about running cost and ease of use; Customer Care was so helpful. I ordered the fire, it was delivered within 48 hours, the instructions very easy to follow, the flame looks incredibly realistic and my mother is delighted. Thank you

  • A good product and excellent service

    After a lot of online research we went to snh for our electric fire as they provided a very comprehensive detail of the product, offered the best price, and quickest delivery. We weren't disappointed as the transaction completed without fault and communications regarding acknowledgement of the order, followed by delivery date and time were excellent. A first class service and a product we are very happy with. Thanks to all at snh.

  • Horton fire

    Just wanted to give feedback on this fire I purchased from SNH.

    We were looking for a simple but elegant fire to fill a gap where we removed an old gas fire.

    The Horton is not the top of the range, but it looks great, is easy to install and works a treat.

    Plus the SNH price was excellent and the delivery fast.

  • Dimplex Horton Electric Fire

    The Dimplex Horton Electric Fire is excellent value for money and looks really good. The heat output is more than adequate and the fire looks lovely just switched on without any heat setting on. SNH delivery was first class and very efficient and I would recommend them to anyone looking to buy the Dimplex Horton or indeed any other fire from the Dimplex range.
