Aquafire water vapor fireplace inserts have been designed to be extremely easy to install, simple to operate, and easy to maintain. When designing your fireplace, feel free to send your plans in for review and Suggestions from our professional design staff.
Considerations:
• Accessibility to electricity and 1/4’’ water line, similar to an ice maker in a fridge.
• Recessed into the wall, sitting proud of the wall, or completely free-standing?
• If light cast upwards to the ceiling is undesirable, consider recessing into the wall for a traditional hearth appearance. (We advise creating a ‘light trap’. See the Light Trap page on our website for details.
• Determine decorative materials and finishes you expect to use. Since there is no heat, there are virtually no
limitations.
• Plan to make it easy to remove the fireplace insert should maintenance or repairs become necessary.
• Avoid or prevent air currents from doors, windows, and the existing HVAC system that affect flame quality.
