The hot favourites

Function and appearance go hand in hand when it comes to creating a cosy atmosphere in a home. So while a well-heated house is surely more comfortable than a cold one, a flickering fire in the centre of a family area or living room adds immeasurably to the ambience.

When you choose a gas fireplace from Living Flame, you cover all these bases. The company carries one of the largest ranges available in New Zealand. No matter what style of home you have, Living Flame can help, with its extensive range of models, from those designed to suit a contemporary decor to those for more traditional looks.

For instance, the Matrix series of convector fireplaces includes a number of models and prices. Stainless steel detailing suits a modern interior, or the fires can be dressed up to complement a traditional home. For apartments and smaller rooms with limited space, Living Flame's Manhattan range is more suitable.

Alternatively, electronic versions are available in the Concept fire range these can be finished in marble, stone, slate, tile or stainless steel. Most fires are available in several sizes. Living Flame also custom-makes fires, and all models are backed by a lifetime guarantee.
