Water vapor fireplaces: how they work and how to look after them

How an ultrasonic mist becomes a flame, which water to use, and how to plan the space around the unit.

A water vapor fireplace makes its flame from a fine mist instead of a screen or a fuel. The mist rises through light, so the flame has depth and moves like smoke.

How the flame is made

An ultrasonic atomizer turns water into a fine, cool mist, and lights below it colour the mist as it rises. The L Series blends two colours for a warmer, deeper flame.

Water

Use filtered or purified water. It keeps mineral deposits out of the atomizer and keeps the mist clean.

Materials

Everything in the L Series that touches water is 304 stainless steel, down to the screws, and the fine atomizer core is designed not to clog.

Placing the unit

Use moisture-resistant materials around the fireplace and avoid reflective material above it. Panels run from 500 to 3000 mm (about 20 to 118 in), 220 mm wide, with a 175 mm box; ask for the opening drawing of your length.
