A balanced flue gas fire is a highly efficient and innovative heating solution designed for homes without a traditional chimney or flue. Unlike conventional gas fires, balanced flue systems are completely room-sealed, drawing in air from outside for combustion and expelling the exhaust gases directly through an external wall. This unique design ensures that no warm air from your room is lost during operation, maximising energy efficiency and maintaining a comfortable indoor environment. With no need for a chimney, balanced flue gas fires offer greater flexibility in installation, making them an ideal choice for modern homes.
The Burley Welham Balanced Flue Gas Fire is a perfect example of this advanced technology, delivering both style and performance. Crafted with over 50 years of expertise, this British-made inset gas fire is designed to fit seamlessly into standard 16" fireplace openings, making it an ideal choice for a wide range of living spaces. The Welham’s elegant design is enhanced by a choice of trim and Blenheim fret finishes in Black, Brass, or Chrome, allowing you to customise the fire to suit your decor.
The Welham Balanced Flue offers a heat output of 3.1kW and boasts an impressive 83% efficiency rating. This ensures that the majority of the heat generated stays within your room, keeping you warm and cosy while minimising energy costs. The fire’s realistic flame effect, set behind a glass front, creates a warm and inviting atmosphere, with the option of a coal or log-effect fuel bed for an authentic look.
The Welham Balanced Flue Gas Fire is as easy to operate as it is efficient. It comes with two control options to suit your preferences: Manual Control, which features an integral ignition and allows for easy adjustment of flame height, or Total Remote Control, providing full control of the fire from the comfort of your sofa, including ignition and flame adjustment.
