GiantexUK Electric Fireplace (127 x 14 x 45cm, Black)

Electric Fireplace Heater

The GiantexUK 50” Electric Fireplace gives you three ways to fit it into your home. Recess it into a wall, mount it flat, or use the included stand feet to place it freestanding. The 80% screen coverage shows off the flame display far better than most standard models, which only cover 60% of the fireplace face.

Choose from 9 flame colours and 5 brightness levels to match your mood or décor. The flame effect works independently of the heater, so you can enjoy the look without any warmth in summer.

When you do want heat, switch between 750W and 1500W settings. The thermostat runs from 16°C to 28°C and covers rooms up to 46 square metres. Running noise stays below 35dB and overheat protection keeps things safe.

Product Features

Flexible installation - This fireplace fits into a recess, mounts on a wall, or stands freestanding on its own feet. All fixings are included in the box. This means you don't need to commit to one layout. If you move house or redecorate, you can change how it's fitted without buying new parts. Wide flame display - The flame screen takes up 80% of the fireplace face, compared to 60% on standard models. With 9 colours and 5 brightness settings, you get a bigger, more visible flame effect. The flame function also works on its own without heat, so it doubles as a decorative feature. Dual heat settings - Switch between 750W and 1500W depending on how much warmth you need. The thermostat runs from 16°C to 28°C, letting you set a target room temperature. Heat output reaches 5000 BTU and covers rooms up to 46 square metres.

Remote control operation - The remote handles every function the control panel does, including flame colour, brightness, heat level, timer and temperature. You can operate it from up to 6 metres away without getting up from the sofa. It needs 2 x AAA batteries, which aren't included. Built-in safety features - Overheat protection shuts the unit down if it runs too hot. The fireplace also carries UKCA certification, confirming it meets UK safety standards. These features matter for a heater running for extended periods in a home. Low noise operation - The fireplace runs at 35dB or below. That's quiet enough to not interrupt conversation, TV viewing, or sleep if placed in a bedroom. Many electric heaters run louder fans, so this is a genuine point of difference.

Frequently Asked Questions

FAQs

Can I install this fireplace without a professional?

Yes. The fireplace comes with a metal wall bracket and stand feet, so you can either mount it, recess it, or set it up freestanding. Customer reviews mention that wall mounting was straightforward. No specialist tools or professional fitting are required for any of the three installation methods.

Does the flame effect work without the heater turned on?

Yes. The flame display operates independently from the heating function. This means you can run the fireplace purely for visual effect during warmer months, without generating any heat, which helps keep running costs down when heat isn't needed.

How much space do I need between the fireplace and a TV?

GiantexUK recommends leaving at least 30cm of clearance between the fireplace and any TV mounted above or near it. This gap helps prevent heat from the fireplace affecting the TV's electronics during use.

What size room will this heat effectively?

The fireplace has a heat output of 5000 BTU and can cover up to 46 square metres. One reviewer noted it didn't heat a small room as fast as expected, so bear in mind performance can vary depending on room layout, insulation and ceiling height.

Do I need batteries for the remote control?

Yes, the remote control requires 2 x AAA batteries, which are not included in the package. Once fitted, the remote gives you full control from up to 6 metres away, covering every function also available on the fireplace's control panel.

What's included in the box?

The package includes the electric fireplace unit, a remote control, a metal wall bracket, 2 stand feet and an instruction manual. Everything needed for wall mounting or freestanding setup is provided, though recessed installation may require additional fitting depending on your wall structure.

How many heat settings does it have?

The fireplace offers two heat settings: 750W and 1500W. You can select either output level and also set a target temperature between 16°C and 28°C using the built-in thermostat, which then maintains that temperature automatically.

Is this fireplace noisy when running?

No. It operates at 35dB or below, which is considered low noise for an electric heater. Several customer reviews specifically mention it "runs quietly," making it suitable for living rooms or bedrooms where noise levels matter.
