FAQs
Water vapour technology uses ultrasonic waves to transform water into a fine mist, which is illuminated by LED lights, creating a realistic flame effect. The flames look like real fire but produce no heat, making the fireplaces safe and efficient to use.
Are water vapour fireplaces freestanding?
Yes, all water vapour fireplaces by Planika are freestanding. This means you can easily place them anywhere without the need for installation or connection to chimney systems.
We recommend using distilled or filtered water to ensure optimal fireplace performance and extend the lifespan of the device. This type of water helps prevent the buildup of limescale and other impurities.
Are water vapour fireplaces safe for homes with children or pets?
Yes, water vapour fireplaces are completely safe because they produce no heat. The flame effect is purely visual, making these fireplaces an ideal choice for homes with children and pets, as well as high-traffic areas.
Water vapour fireplaces: real-looking flame with no fire
A water vapour fireplace (also called a steam or mist fireplace) creates a three-dimensional flame from ultra-fine water mist lit by LEDs. The flame moves like real fire, but it is cold, safe to touch, produces no heat, no fumes and no CO2, and needs no ventilation. Planika's Cool Flame technology powers the Aura, Misty, Steamy and Cloudy models in this collection.
Where a water vapour fireplace makes sense
Bedrooms and children's rooms, offices, restaurants, hotels and any building where open flame is not allowed by fire regulations. Because there is no combustion, a water vapour fireplace can be installed under a TV, in a bookshelf or in a room with air conditioning without any clearance for heat.
How it works and what it costs to run
Fill the tank with tap water (or connect a water line on selected models), switch on, and the ultrasonic unit turns water into a fine mist that LEDs colour into flames. Running cost is water plus a few watts of electricity: pennies per evening, no fuel to buy, no chimney, no service contract. Flame height and colour are adjustable by remote or app.
Water vapour vs bioethanol vs electric
Choose water vapour when you want the look of fire with zero heat and maximum safety. Choose a bioethanol BEV fireplace when you want real flames and warmth. Compared with classic electric fireplaces with a 2D screen, a mist flame is volumetric: you see it from every side and it reacts to air like a real fire.
