      Available in three distinct editions—Standard, Deluxe, and Black Edition—allowing you to personalise your fireplace to perfectly match your interior style. Each edition offers unique features and finishes, ensuring a bespoke look that enhances your living space.

      Standard Edition (Signature)

      The Standard Edition is the original blend of simplicity and style, featuring realistic ceramic logs and a mirror back panel that reflects the flickering flames for a dynamic visual effect. It also features slates, wood tusks, big diamonds and crystals that can be arranged to your preferences.

      Deluxe Edition

These responsibly sourced logs are paired with an enhanced fixed resin fuel bed setup that delivers a warm and earthy ambiance, perfect for creating a cosy atmosphere. This has a mirror back panel that also reflects the flame visuals.

      Black Edition

      For a bold, contemporary aesthetic, the Black Edition replaces the mirror back panel with a sleek black glass finish and includes the hand-scorched real logs. This striking design accentuates the flames and creates a dramatic focal point in any modern living space.

      No matter which edition you choose, the New Forest 1600 Electric Fireplace delivers the same award-winning flame visuals and innovative features that make it a standout addition to any home.

      Installation Options

      The New Forest 1600 is designed for versatile installation, allowing you to create the perfect setup for your room. Whether you’re looking for a modern three-sided display or a discreet corner installation, this fireplace adapts seamlessly to your space.

      • Cornered Installation – Ideal for unique layouts, the cornered installation leaves one side open for a dramatic effect. Choose either the left or right side to suit your room’s design.
      • Three-Sided Installation – A modern and sophisticated option, the three-sided installation opens both the left and right sides of the fireplace, creating a striking centrepiece within a constructed chimney breast.
      • Fully Recessed – For a clean and contemporary look, fully recess the fireplace into a chimney breast. This front-facing design adds width and prominence, enhancing the room’s overall aesthetic.

      The 1600 comes with three pieces of glass as standard, providing a sleek, full-front view. Blanking plates are included, allowing you to convert the fireplace into a one-sided or two-sided installation, offering flexibility for future changes and ensuring an easy setup.

      Fuel Bed Options

      Transform your fireplace with up to four unique fuel bed configurations. Customise the look using the standard ceramic logs, slates, and diamond lights to create a arrangement that suits your style. For an enhanced experience, upgrade to the deluxe real logs fixed in place with resin, expertly arranged for a realistic and captivating flame display.

      Your fireplace should reflect your personal style, and the New Forest 1600 offers a variety of fuel bed options to suit any aesthetic. Whether you prefer the traditional charm of hand-scorched logs or the modern elegance of crystals and slate, you can create a look that complements your home.

      Fuel Beds:

      Standard Signature Ceramic Logs, Slates and Diamond Light : Featuring intricate details, these ceramic logs rest on wood chippings and husks, delivering a natural, earthy appeal. Crystals and slate pieces allow light to dance through the fuel bed, creating a modern and magical ambiance.

      Upgradable Deluxe Real Logs: Hand-scorched, responsibly sourced logs provide an authentic and charming visual. Each log arrangement is unique, adding a personal touch to your fireplace.

      Advanced Technology

      It isn’t just about looks – the New Forest 1600 also features innovative technology to enhance your comfort and convenience. From energy-efficient heating to customisable lighting, it’s designed to make your life easier while adding elegance to your space.

      Air Curtain Technology®

      The patented Air Curtain Technology® is engineered to enhance heat distribution throughout your room. Cool air is drawn in from the sides of the fireplace, heated, and then circulated back into the space, providing effective and efficient warmth.

      The fireplace fan draws in cool air from the room, guiding it along the sides for efficient circulation.

      It then channels the warm air back into the space through strategically placed outlets, ensuring even heat distribution.

      Designed for optimal performance, this system ensures your room stays comfortably warm with minimal energy loss.

      Lighting Effects

      Switch between four fire bed colours (natural orange, darker natural orange, pink and blue) or enjoy the cycle mode for a dynamic display. The LED lighting is energy-efficient and long-lasting, ensuring your fireplace remains cost-effective to operate.

      Flame Control

      Introducing a natural picture with four flame settings, you can adjust the brightness and height to match your mood, whether you want a subtle glow or a dramatic blaze.

      Mirrored Back Panel

      The mirrored back panel, featured in the Signature and Deluxe editions of the 1600 electric fire, creates a stunning visual effect that enhances the illusion of a real campfire. Reflecting the flickering flames, it adds depth and warmth to the fireplace, offering a more immersive, authentic fire experience.

      When upgrading to the Black Edition, the mirrored panel is swapped for a sleek black panel, providing a more modern, minimalist look while maintaining the same high-quality performance.

      Whether you prefer the classic campfire feel or a contemporary style, both options offer a striking aesthetic to complement your home décor.

      Controls

      Fully equipped with an intuitive and easy to use thermostatic remote control, the 1600 ensures you can create the perfect ambiance with minimal effort.

      Designed for convenience, the remote allows you to adjust all the fireplace’s key features from the comfort of your seat. Whether you’re tweaking the flame brightness, changing the fuel bed colour, or setting the ideal room temperature, the remote provides seamless control at your fingertips.

      Key Features of the Remote

      • Flame Brightness Adjustment: Select the perfect flame intensity to suit your mood.
      • Open Door Detection: Any sudden drop in temperature, within a 10 minute period, the fire will turn off to preserve energy.
      • Downlighting: Additional downwards lighting for highlighting the logs.
      • Lighting Colour Options: Change the fuel bed colour or use the cycling mode for dynamic effects.
      • Timers: Schedule the fire to turn on daily or weekly for a period of time. Turn the heating on for a desired length of time between 1-9 hours.
      • Thermostatic Temperature Control: Set your desired room temperature between 17°C and 27°C.
      • Power Control: Turn the fireplace on or off effortlessly with a single button.
      • User-Friendly Design: Simple layout for quick and intuitive operation.

      With the New Forest 1600’s remote, achieving the ideal ambiance has never been easier.
