UNIQUE PROJECTION SYSTEM Unlike ordinary electric fires, the Virtuo 3D flame picture is generated by a unique projection system that replicates the image of a real log fire, from the tall, dancing flames to the glowing LED fire bed and flying embers.

There are three different flame variations, including special light effects that can be updated. In addition, there is a remote control and an exclusive control app for smartphones and tablets with a timer and thermostat.
SUSTAINABLE AND EFFICIENT Virtuo delivers a cosy 2 KW output or it can be run as a purely decorative fire. There are no ribbons to twist or spindles to squeak and it is energy efficient with low running costs.
Commenting on the Virtuo launch, DRU UK general manager Niall Deiraniya said: ‘Virtuo fulfils a real need in the fireplace
market. Many householders are moving away from burning fossil fuels towards more sustainable home heating. Virtuo is also suitable for today’s well-insulated properties that do not require an appliance with a high output, but still want the luxury of a beautiful flame effect. ‘For home builders and self-builders,
Virtuo also makes a very attractive option, as it requires no chimneys, flue pipes or complex construction. Simply plug it into the domestic power supply and enjoy the experience of an atmospheric log fire.’ For further information and a brochure, please email.
