Bring a contemporary edge to your fireplace with the Dimplex Scala 16" Electric Fire, a stylish inset design that blends modern lines with a distinctive shape for a statement finish. Compact yet impactful, this fire is designed to fit into a standard 16" fireplace opening, making it a versatile choice for both new surrounds and replacement installations.
What sets the Scala apart is its unique trim design, rounded edges at the top with a modern overhang. This gives the fire a softer, more elegant appearance compared to sharp-edged models, while still retaining the sleek and polished look that modern interiors demand. Available in a choice of Chrome or Black Nickel finishes on the horizontal fret bars, it can be tailored to match either bright contemporary décors or darker, more dramatic schemes.
Inside the frame, Dimplex’s famous Optiflame flame effect creates a captivating, lifelike display that rises above a handcrafted resin log bed. The Scala offers six different flame colour themes and variable brightness, plus a gentle overhead light that enhances the depth and realism of the display. Whether you prefer a golden flame for cosiness or a cooler hue for a modern twist, this fire lets you set the perfect mood.
The performance matches the looks. A built-in fan heater provides up to 2kW of instant heat, operated by a thermostat for energy efficiency. Two heat settings give you flexibility, while a flame only mode allows you to enjoy the flickering ambience without warming the room, ideal for year-round use. The energy-efficient LED system ensures low running costs and long-lasting reliability.
For convenience, the Scala includes an easy-to-use remote control, allowing you to manage flame colours, brightness, and heat settings from your seat. An 8 hour programmable timer provides additional peace of mind, making it simple to set the fire to switch off automatically.
If your fireplace doesn’t have the required inset depth, an optional spacer frame is available so the Scala can be fitted flat against a wall, giving you even more installation options.
The Dimplex Scala 16" Electric Fire combines clever design, advanced flame technology, and practical heating in one attractive package, making it a brilliant choice for anyone looking to refresh their fireplace with a touch of modern style.
