Choosing a Chesneys coal or log effect gas fire

A coal effect complements a classic period fireplace, while a log effect recreates the appearance of burning timber without loading firewood. Compare the fuel-bed styles and available controls, checking the exact burner’s dimensions against your proposed basket and fireplace opening.

Browse Chesneys fire baskets to find a suitable design. Bonfire can help coordinate the components and discuss the installation requirements before you order.

Chesneys gas fire FAQs

What does DFE mean on a Chesneys gas fire?

DFE stands for Decorative Fuel Effect. These gas fires are designed to recreate the appearance of an open fire using a coal or log effect fuel bed with real flames.

Can a Chesneys gas fire fit my existing fireplace?

Potentially, but the opening dimensions, basket, hearth, ventilation and chimney or flue must suit the selected appliance. A suitably qualified Gas Safe registered engineer should assess the installation before the fire is fitted.

What is the difference between a gas fire and a gas stove?

The DFE fires here create an open fireplace appearance within a compatible basket. Chesneys gas stoves house the fire within an enclosed stove body. Compare the individual models’ heat outputs and installation requirements as well as their appearance.
