Dimplex Nova Series 28 (with Logs) Electric Insert

A log fire that runs on a wall outlet—flames in July, heat in January. Quick Facts • Heating Capacity: 0–500 sq ft • Fuel: Electric, standard plug-in. • Controls: Multi-function remote plus hidden built-in controls—thermostat, timer, brightness, flame themes. • Fan: Included Who It’s For There’s a spot in your house that wants a fire—an old fireplace opening that sits dark, or a wall waiting for a mantel—and running gas or wood there was never realistic. You need a fire that doesn’t need a chimney. If you want flames at the push of a remote, with heat when you ask for it and none when you don’t, the Nova 28 is the one: it plugs into a standard household outlet and slides into an existing opening or a new surround. Choose gas or wood instead and the project starts with fuel lines and permits before you ever see a flame. What Makes It Special The fire is the point. The molded logs glow from the inside while the ember bed beneath them pulses, so the fire has depth instead of a flat flicker— the low, settled look of a wood fire an hour after lighting . Flame speed, brightness, and firebox hues all adjust from the couch, so the same fire can read bright and lively or low and quiet. And the flames don’t need the heater. Run flame-only, 365 days a year —a fire on a warm June evening costs pennies—then switch the heater on when the season turns and it warms up to 1,000 square feet , holding the temperature you set on its built-in thermostat. Possible Downsides • Everything runs on electricity —in a power outage, flame and heat both go out with the lights. • Heat is fan-forced only , so warming the room means the fan is running. • Alternate Looks Cost Extra: Glass, rock, and driftwood ember-bed options are add-ons, not included. If you want a fire in a room where gas and wood were never going to happen, the Nova 28 is the right decision. The opening that sat dark becomes the glow everyone ends up next to. The included log set can be swapped or dressed up with optional tumbled glass, river rock, black rock, and acrylic crystal ember beds, plus Beach Driftwood and Driftwood faux-wood log sets.
