Rinnai Ember Gas Fireplace Series - Compact, High-Efficiency Heating for New Zealand Homes
Experience the ultimate combination of cozy ambiance and modern convenience with the Rinnai Ember Series. Designed specifically to suit New Zealand living conditions, this compact gas fireplace delivers the mesmerizing glow of a traditional wood fire alongside the powerful, instant warmth of efficient gas heating--without any of the mess, wood chopping, or cleanup.
Whether you are embarking on a new architectural build, renovating a character home, or looking to replace an old open fireplace, the Rinnai Ember is the perfect "little hottie." Available in two sizes (Ember 600 and Ember 700), it packs a powerful punch, delivering over 5 kW of efficient heat output to keep your living space perfectly comfortable through the coldest Kiwi winters.
Why Homeowners and Trade Professionals Choose the Rinnai Ember:
- Stunning Visual Appeal: Features a large viewable flame area, premium burn media options, and customizable frame choices to seamlessly match your interior design aesthetic.
- Smart, Flexible Control: Comes standard with a user-friendly, back-to-basics infra-red remote control. For ultimate modern convenience, upgrade your system with the Wi-Fi module retrofit kit (Part Number: R7000, RRP $220 plus installation) to control your home heating right from your smartphone.
- Intelligent Climate Efficiency: Ideal for open-plan living rooms and family spaces. In smaller rooms, the Ember heats up the space rapidly and automatically adjusts to its lowest setting once your desired temperature is reached, keeping energy usage highly efficient.
Installation & Trade Specifications:
Engineered to trade-quality standards, the Rinnai Ember is highly versatile and designed for straightforward installation by certified NZ gasfitters. It is suitable for both masonry retrofits and installations into a newly constructed mock (false) chimney.
- Masonry Requirements: Fits directly into existing brick chimneys. For masonry installations, the chimney cavity must measure at least 200 mm x 200 mm to easily accommodate the colinear flexi flue system.
- Mock Chimney Ready: Can be beautifully integrated into a timber-framed false chimney cavity in open-plan living areas.
