The Newman E-Ferno Azar 1800-FD Inset Electric Fire is a premium extra-wide electric fire designed to create a dramatic built-in focal point with exceptional realism, advanced smart control and flexible installation potential. As part of the high-specification E-Ferno Azar FD range, it combines high-definition flame technology, handcrafted real wood logs and extensive ambient lighting customisation to deliver a truly immersive electric fire experience for large media walls, false chimney breasts and statement fireplace installations.
A defining strength of the Azar 1800-FD is its impressive visual scale and depth. This is not simply a wider electric fire, but a model built to maximise realism across a larger viewing area. The fire uses high-definition flame technology, flame synthesis technology, flickering fuel bed effects, shimmer lighting and log down lights to create a layered, lifelike display that feels far more convincing than a standard electric appliance. Flame, ember bed and downlight colours can each be controlled independently, with 15 colour options available across all three elements, along with brightness control. This allows the user to create everything from a traditional warm log-fire look to a more contemporary, mood-lit feature installation.
The realism is further elevated by the fuel bed itself. The Newman E-Ferno Azar 1800-FD includes premium hand-crafted kiln-dried hardwood logs, available in either Woodland Oak or Forest Ash, together with a detailed mix of ember crystals and bark chippings. The addition of front log shimmer technology helps the display come alive by making selected front logs glow and gently fade in intervals, emulating the changing character of a real burning fire.
Control is another major selling point. The fire can be operated using manual controls, a hand-held remote, or the advanced app control system. Remote functionality includes 15 pre-programmed fire scenes, four flame speeds, six crackling sound settings, high and low heat settings, temperature control, and independent adjustment of the flame, ember bed and downlights. App control expands this even further, with a colour spectrum wheel, sync control, independent brightness control, flame synthesis mixing, and a 7-day programmable timer. It can also be operated through smart mobiles or Alexa, making it especially attractive for modern connected homes.
For heating, the fire uses a high-tech PTC fan heater with 1000W to 2000W output, designed to combine improved safety with efficient performance. As an electric fire, it requires no chimney, produces zero combustion, avoids flue heat loss and generally has lower maintenance and service demands than gas or solid fuel appliances. This makes it a strong choice for customers wanting the visual impact of a premium fire with fewer installation restrictions and less ongoing upkeep.
The Azar 1800-FD is ideal for installation into media walls, false chimney breasts, chimney openings and fireplaces, where its wider format can become the central feature of the room. Optional extras such as anti-reflective glass and an LED mood lighting kit allow even more scope for bespoke design, helping the finished installation feel even more premium and tailored.
