Water Vapour Fireplaces
Water vapour fireplaces give you all the atmosphere of a real fire without the mess, smoke or harmful emissions. They use clever ultrasonic technology to turn water into a fine mist, which is then lit by LEDs to look like dancing flames. The effect is surprisingly realistic – soft, glowing, and with just the right amount of movement to feel like the real thing.
Because there’s no actual burning, these fires are clean, safe and low maintenance. Perfect for apartments, houses or even commercial spaces, they’re a simple way to add a cosy focal point to a room.
What is Water Vapour Technology?
modern technology for your home
Water Vapour is an eco-friendly alternative to traditional fireplaces such as wood burners and gas stoves. A fireplace with water vapour runs on nothing more than water and electricity, so there’s no ash, soot or fumes to worry about. It’s a brilliant choice if you want the look of fire without dealing with chimneys or fuel deliveries.
The “flames” are simply cool mist, which makes them safe to touch – a big plus for families with kids or pets. And because there’s no real combustion, there’s virtually no upkeep. A quick top-up of the water tank now and then is about as complicated as it gets.

redefining the home fire experience
A water vapour electric fireplace is all about convenience. Plug it in, fill the tank, and you’re done. Most models run for 8–10 hours on a full tank, but built-in versions can even be plumbed directly into a water supply for uninterrupted use.
Despite the mist effect, they don’t add noticeable moisture to the air, so there’s no need for extra ventilation. And with no heat (unless you pick a model with a built-in heater), they’re a great option for rooms where safety is a priority.

Whether you want to make a feature of your living room, add a touch of luxury to your bedroom, or create a welcoming vibe in a hotel or restaurant, a water vapour fire fits almost anywhere. Choose from a range of installation options, including single-sided, double-sided, three-sided, tunnel, or island-style fireplaces, seamlessly integrating into your interior design.
more steam fire information
A water vapour electric fireplace is an electric fireplace that creates realistic, three-dimensional flame effects using ultrasonic technology to generate illuminated water mist. It offers the beauty of fire without heat, smoke, or harmful emissions.
Steam fireplaces are designed for ambiance, not warmth, but some models include a small electric heater for a gentle boost of heat in cooler months.
Ultrasonic vibrations turn water into fine mist. LED lights shine through it to create the look of real flames – flickering and glowing just like a log fire, but completely safe.
Yes. The flames are just cool mist, so there’s no risk of burns, sparks or fumes such as carbon monoxide. They’re ideal for homes with kids, pets or busy public spaces.
No. These fires don’t produce smoke, so they can go almost anywhere with a power supply and water source.
That depends on how much you use it. Most tanks last 8–10 hours per fill. If you want to avoid refilling, some built-in fires can be connected directly to your water supply.
Minimal maintenance is needed. Regularly cleaning the water tank and ultrasonic misting unit helps keep the system running smoothly. If using tap water, occasional descaling may be necessary.
Many freestanding models are plug-and-play, requiring only water and electricity. However, built-in units may require professional installation to integrate seamlessly into your space.
