Dimplex Vital Spark 36 Electric Fireplace

Flames every night of the year—heat only when you ask for it. Quick Facts • Heating Capacity: 0–500 sq ft • Fuel: Electric. • Controls: Remote, hidden touch panel, or the Glen Dimplex Connect phone app; built-in timer up to 8 hours. • Fan: Included Who It’s For Most fireplaces go dark from April to October because the flames only come with the heat. You need a fire that runs with or without the heater. If you want a fireplace the household actually uses in every season —set from the couch, the wall, or your phone—the Vital Spark 36 is the one. Pick a heat-only unit instead and the fireplace stays a winter feature. What Makes It Special Most electric fires give you one look. This one gives you 13 flame colors , three brightness levels, and three flame speeds over a molded logset and a five-color ember bed—an orange wood-fire glow for movie night, a cool blue for a summer dinner outside the glass. Press a button on the remote and it adds the crackle of a real fire . It also runs on ordinary household power: a 120-volt plug kit is included , or it can be hardwired. Set the timer for up to eight hours and the fire shuts itself off after everyone has gone to bed. Possible Downsides • Heat is fan-forced and tops out at 1,500 watts —warmth for the room it’s in, not a substitute for the furnace. • The molded logset is the only media bed ; there is no glass or stone alternative. • Coverage is a 1-year limited warranty on electrical components. If you want a fire you can enjoy in July as easily as January, the Vital Spark 36 is the right decision. The fireplace stops being a winter feature and becomes part of every evening in the house. Thirteen flame colors, seven media theme colors, a five-color ember bed, and three brightness and speed settings let you tune the fire to the room you already have.
