Some fires heat a room. This one takes it over, in the best way. The Rinnai LS 1500 is built for big, open-plan living, with a frameless, edge-to-edge design and a driftwood-look log set so realistic it does a proper double-take at first glance. It's a heater, sure, but really it's the feature the whole room arranges itself around.

There's serious warmth behind the good looks. Heat output runs up to 9.2 kW, enough to handle large areas and open-plan spaces, warming up to 78m² in very cold conditions, 92m² in cold, 125m² in cool and 142m² in milder weather. And it does it efficiently, with a 5 star efficiency rating keeping running costs sensible for a fire this size. (Output and star rating can vary depending on flue and gas type.)

What sets it apart:

• A genuine showpiece, with a highly realistic log set and burn media, and an elegant frameless design
• Anti-reflective glass that cuts out distracting reflections, so you see the flames and not the room behind you
• Wi-Fi control as standard, so you can run it from your phone, no add-on module needed
• Flexible power flueing to suit more installation situations
• Runs on your gas, available in both Natural Gas and LPG

The build-in numbers: it needs a cavity of 745mm high x 1935mm wide x 425mm deep (minimum), with a visual opening of 1500mm wide and 280mm high. Finished in Black. Gas input runs 15 MJ/h on low to 40 MJ/h on high. An optional 50mm trim is available separately to finish the surround.

One thing to sort before you buy: flueing and accessories aren't included, and the right setup depends on your home, so it's worth a quick chat first. Come and see us at Mowerland Bathurst and Lucknow and we'll help you get the LS 1500 specced right for your space.
