FAQs:
Q: What makes the Dimplex Ignite Bold different from other electric fireplaces?
A: Ignite Bold stands out with its Multi-Fire® flame technology, Comfort$aver ceramic heating system, and five-in-one installation flexibility (front, left, right, bay, and modular). Its 16-inch-high viewing area and mirror-effect depth create one of the most realistic electric flames available.
Q: How many installation configurations does Ignite Bold offer?
A: Ignite Bold can be installed in four configurations — front-facing, left corner, right corner, or bay — all from a single unit. This built-in flexibility eliminates the need for multiple SKUs while offering complete design freedom.
Q: Does Ignite Bold provide heat or just visual ambiance?
A: Ignite Bold can do both. It delivers up to 8,530 BTU of supplemental heat when hardwired to 240 V or can operate flame-only for ambiance year-round. Users can also disable heat via the control panel or the Flame Connect App.
Q: Can I control Ignite® Bold with an app?
A: Yes. The Dimplex Flame Connect App lets you adjust flame color, brightness, and speed; set timers; and store custom “mood” settings right from your phone.
