Flame Visuals & Fuel Effects

Both the eMotiv and eStudio ranges are equipped with Gazco’s leading Chromalight® Immersive LED system, ensuring breathtakingly realistic flame visuals and vibrant ember beds. The eMotiv offers flame options of Amber, Amber with Blue Accent, or Blue, and for ember bed up-lighting a choice of eight colours plus the Spectrum Mode, which gradually cycles through them all. The eMotiv also features an ultra-realistic glowing Oak log-effect which paired with the ember effects, create an incredibly lifelike appearance. For added realism, an authentic log guard is a fine detail that recreates the look of a real wood burning fire.

The eStudio, on the other hand, offers flame settings of Amber and Yellow, Amber with Yellow accent, or Yellow with Amber accent, and thirteen colours plus Spectrum Mode for the ember bed. eStudio electric fires are available with a choice of unique log-effects designed to match the slimmer depth of these models. Whether you choose the standard log set or the optional Silver Birch, you’ll find that these too glow like real burning logs, when the fire’s flames and ember bed are activated.

Control and Convenience

An important consideration of any electric fire is how easy it is to use and control. Both the eMotiv and eStudio ranges come with a Programmable Thermostatic Eco Remote Control, allowing precise management of heating, flame display, and fuel bed colours.
The eMotiv takes technology a step further by offering app control capabilities on iOS and Android devices, giving the flexibility to adjust the fire from your smartphone. From the app is where you can set up daily time periods and days of the week for the fire to turn on or off the heat, flames, or both according to your preference.

In contrast, while the eStudio doesn’t offer an app control option, the fire’s full array of features, including daily and weekly scheduling are accessible from the remote control. You can even manually advance any pre-set heating cycle to come on or turn off before the programmed time without disrupting the set daily or weekly schedules.

Installation Flexibility

When it comes to installation, the eMotiv is designed with a tapered firebox, making it exceptionally simple to slot into existing openings, which is ideal for fireplace upgrades or renovations. It also comes with an integrated frame that’s easily adjustable to 3 or 4-sided to suit both inset and hearth mounted installations, providing versatility no matter your design needs.

The eStudio is also quite flexible, designed with a slightly narrower depth that facilitates easier installations into media walls. This reduced depth allows for a less intrusive profile in your living space, perfect for sleek modern homes or where floorspace is at a premium. For those looking for a direct wall-mount option, the eStudio range includes models like the Arosa 140 and Cerreto 140 complete suites, which offer a flat-wall-fix with minimal construction required.
