Specifying Panoramic Electric Fires: A Guide for Designers and Builders

If you are specifying a fire for a client's media wall, you need the build dimensions, clearances and power requirements up front. This page brings together the key specification for the Econovex deep panoramic range in one place.

Dimensions

Model Recess opening (W x H x D) Overall size (W x H x D) Pairs with
Econovex 1270 1270 x 560 x 300 mm 1296 x 570 x 311 mm 50" to 55" TV
Econovex 1600 1600 x 560 x 300 mm 1626 x 570 x 311 mm 55" to 65" TV
Econovex 1800 1800 x 560 x 300 mm 1826 x 570 x 311 mm 65" to 75" TV
Econovex 2000 2032 x 560 x 300 mm 2058 x 570 x 311 mm 65" to 85" TV

Model names are rounded; build to the recess size. The TV pairings are our recommendation for proportion: the fire should run slightly wider than the screen.

Clearances

  • Floor: at least 150 mm from the bottom of the fire to the floor.
  • Above: at least 200 mm from the top of the fire to a TV, mantel or ceiling.
  • Sides and back: 0 mm.
  • In front: keep furniture, curtains and other combustible materials at least 1 m away.

Power

  • 230V AC plug-in, 3-pin plug, 2 m cord.
  • Dedicated circuit recommended, with the socket at the top right of the framed opening.
  • Recess into non-load-bearing walls only; line the enclosure (for example with plasterboard).

Heating

  • 3kW PTC heater with two settings: low 1.5kW (5,118 BTU) and high 3kW (10,236 BTU).
  • The heater runs only when the flame effect is on.
  • Running cost at the October 2026 price cap (26.32p per kWh): about 39p an hour on low, 79p an hour on high.

Configurations

  • 3-sided (bay): front and both ends glazed.
  • 2-sided (corner): one end closed with a side cover.
  • Flush: both ends closed, front glass only.
  • Partial recess: fire sits partly forward of the wall.

Two side covers, the front glass, two side glass panels, a mounting bracket, screws, the log set, ember media and the remote are supplied.

Controls

Remote control for flame, ambient light and ember bed colour and brightness, flashing modes, crackle sound and a 1 to 9 hour timer. A control panel on the unit offers 8 flame colour combinations, brightness and heat settings.

1 year manufacturer's warranty covering manufacturing faults (glass breakage is not covered). Delivery in 5 to 7 working days.
