Dimplex DFP6848 electric fireplace offers realistic flame effects and supplemental heating to enhance the ambiance of your living space. With adjustable brightness levels and a range of flame colors, you can customize the fireplace to your desired aesthetic. The heater can operate independently of the flame effect, allowing you to enjoy the warmth without the visual display. Installation options include existing fireplaces, new wall constructions, and Dimplex mantel surround kits or custom-made surrounds, providing versatility in placement.

Owner's manual

Dimplex DFP6848 electric fireplace offers realistic flame effects and supplemental heating to enhance the ambiance of your living space. With adjustable brightness levels and a range of flame colors, you can customize the fireplace to your desired aesthetic. The heater can operate independently of the flame effect, allowing you to enjoy the warmth without the visual display. Installation options include existing fireplaces, new wall constructions, and Dimplex mantel surround kits or custom-made surrounds, providing versatility in placement.
