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 by our professional design staff.
Considerations:
• Accessibility to electricity and 1/4’’ water line, similar to ice maker in fridge.
• Recessed into wall, sitting proud of a wall or completely free-standing?
• If light cast upwards to ceiling is undesirable, consider recessing into the wall for a traditional hearth
appearance. (we advise to create a ‘light trap’. see Light Trap page 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 fireplace insert should maintenance or repairs become necessary.
• Avoid or prevent air currents from doors, windows, and existing HVAC system which affect flame quality.
