Electric Stove Information

As an alternative to multifuel or gas stoves, electric stoves can be a fantastic choice especially if either the main requirement is ambience rather than heat first or the budget is tight, as generally they are cheaper to buy and install.

Wood burning-effect stoves are one of the latest must-have in home decoration. Powerful, efficient and amazingly versatile heat. With the next generation of electric stoves you too can create a realistic focal point that works equally in urban city living as it is in rural country abodes.

There are many stoves that look and feel like a real modern wood burner but doesn't haven’t any of the drawbacks of a solid fuel stove. No chimney or flue is required, no storage is required for the logs and an electric stove does not require cleaning after use. The simplicity of electric at your finger tips and controllability of heat provides a system that is far easier to operate and cleaner to maintain, no annual service required unlike gas or chimney sweeping for multifuel.

There are many different styles ranging from simple single flame effect with matt finish right up to the deceptively real "Opti-myst" look. The fully 3 dimensional effect uses established ultrasonic technology to create an ultra fine water mist. As the mist rises up through the coals or logs, the light reflects against the water creating a convincing illusion of flames & smoke. The result is a amazingly authentic look that will be mistaken for the real thing!

Optimyst uses ultrasonic technology to create the world’s most realistic flame effect, with an ultra-fine water mist that mimics flame and smoke. As the mist rises through the logs warm light is emitted which reflects against the water, creating an incredibly realistic 3D illusion of flames and smoke which is commonly mistaken for the real thing.

The Optimyst flame effect can be operated independently of the heating function of the fire, allowing you to enjoy the homely, warming ambience of a flickering fireplace whatever the weather or time of year. 

Optimyst is available across the entire range of fire styles, so whether you wish to create a new, iconic centrepiece to a room or update an existing fireplace without losing the ambience of flame, Dimplex Optimyst offers a solution.

When Broseley decided to power a cast iron stove with electricity, we had in mind people with a fireplace or space for a stove who desired that traditional look. But with total convenience. With an electric stove there’s no need for a flue. You can safely sit a stove directly on to a level surface such as a wooden floor; the only installation required is plugging into a socket.

What sets Broseley electric stoves apart is their innovative design and the authenticity of the visual effect. We have perfected lighting technology to emulate the flames, the shimmer and smoulder of a real woodburning stove to the last detail. To get the effect just right, you can arrange a selection of the artificial logs and real polished anthracite coals just as you please. Whilst Broseley offers a selection of traditional styles and choices of door finishes & fuelbeds, Evolution offer a more contemporary finish including 3 inset versions that fit into a fireplace suite..
