Features and types
The electric fireplaces in this selection cover three main configurations, suited to different contexts and surfaces.
Wall-mounted fireplaces in steel and glass
The models SINED Monte, SINED Aprica e SINED Pordoi are fixed to the wall like a decorative panel. The structure is in steel and glass, with a 1500W burner and LED flame effect. They differ in size and proportions: the Pordoi is the widest in the line, with a greater scenic presence, available in black; the Monte is offered in white finish; theAprica is in black. All three operate without a chimney: you just need a standard electric socket and the mounting brackets included.
Built-in fireplaces
The SINED Caminetto Amiata (180 cm, 1500W, black) is installed in a niche or fitted wall for a result integrated into the architecture. For those wanting an even more scenic solution, the SINED Caminetto Etna reaches 3 metres in length: designed for prominent walls in large residential or commercial spaces. Both are in black with LED flame effect.
Decorative frames: Pienza and Cetona lines
The SINED Mpc collection includes two lines of decorative frames to personalise the fireplace's aesthetics. The Pienza line is available in dark grey, cream white and turquoise blue. The Cetona line is offered in turquoise blue. The two lines differ in frame shape and proportions, allowing different combinations with existing furnishings. It is possible to combine burner and frame to build a coordinated ensemble.
Tabletop fireplace
The WD LifeStyle Tabletop Fireplace in white is designed for decorative use in confined spaces: a table, a shelf, a buffet. It completely changes the scale of use compared to the SINED models, but completes the category for those seeking an original gift idea for the home or Christmas.
Holographic flame technology
The Nobis Janus 125 introduces technology different from the other models: 4K LED holographic flame without ventilation. An option for spaces where silence is a priority and you want a high-definition visual effect.
What you find today
Among the most complete models in the selection, the SINED Pordoi is the largest wall-mounted fireplace: steel and glass structure, 1500W, LED flame effect in black finish, suitable for living rooms and lounge areas where you want a significant visual presence. The SINED Amiata at 180 cm is instead the most appreciated choice for those who want an integrated result: it fits into a niche or fitted wall without taking up front space. For those with large walls or managing commercial spaces, the SINED Etna at 3 metres is the most scenic solution in the catalogue. All SINED models are available with stock inventory at Pignataro Interamna and can be shipped throughout Italy.
How to choose the right electric fireplace
For the type of installation. If you already have a niche or want to integrate the fireplace into the wall architecture, choose a built-in model like the Amiata or Etna. If you prefer to avoid work, wall-mounted models (Monte, Pordoi, Aprica) are mounted with brackets and connected to a standard socket. If you want flexibility of position, consider a freestanding self-supporting solution.
For the size of your space. A 1500W burner works as supplementary heating for medium-sized rooms. For very large spaces, large-length built-in fireplaces — such as the Etna at 3 metres — offer a visual output proportionate to the space.
For your décor style. Matte black adapts to contemporary and industrial spaces. White fits into Provençal, Scandinavian or country chic contexts. The frames from the Pienza and Cetona lines in turquoise, dark grey or cream white allow more marked personalisation of the overall aesthetic.
For its function. All SINED models include both the heating function and the independent LED flame effect: you can use them just for atmosphere even out of season, or as supplementary heating in autumn and winter. The Nobis Janus 125 is silent because it has no ventilation: a choice for bedrooms or studies where noise is a factor.
For your budget. The range covers a very wide range: the WD LifeStyle Tabletop is the affordable solution for occasional decorative use; the wall-mounted SINED models fall into the mid-range; the built-in fireplaces and the Nobis Janus 125 are high-end proposals for those investing in permanent furnishing.
In the SINED catalogue you also find outdoor showers and luminous furnishings, useful for completing an integrated décor project for both indoor and outdoor spaces. For the autumn-Christmas season, pair the fireplace with wall and table clocks or with wreaths and wall decorations for a coherent living room from furnishing to atmosphere.
FAQ
Does a wall-mounted electric fireplace really heat?
Yes. The SINED models in this selection have a heating power of 1500W, usable as supplementary heating for medium-sized spaces. It is possible to activate the LED flame effect even without heat, useful in spring or summer to maintain the decorative function without increasing the room's temperature.
How much does an electric fireplace consume?
With the heating function active, consumption equals the installed power: 1500W corresponds to 1.5 kWh for every hour of use. With only the LED flame effect on, consumption drops to a few watts, comparable to a decorative lamp.
Do I need an electrician to install a wall-mounted fireplace?
Wall-mounted models like the SINED Monte, Pordoi and Aprica are fixed with standard brackets and connected to a normal domestic power outlet. The installation does not require work on the electrical system under typical conditions. For large built-in models (Etna, 3 m), it is advisable to check with a technician the niche preparation and socket position.
What is the difference between LED flame effect and 4K holographic flame?
The classic LED flame effect (present on SINED models) uses LED lights behind a panel to simulate flame movement. The 4K holographic technology, present on the Nobis Janus 125, projects a high-definition image without ventilation, resulting in complete silence. The visual output is more realistic; it is a high-end option for spaces where visual detail and silence are priorities.
Can I use an electric fireplace just as a decorative element?
Yes. All models in this selection allow you to activate the LED flame effect independently from the heating. This mode makes it useful all year round as a focal point in the living room or lounge area. For purely decorative use on a small scale, the WD LifeStyle Tabletop Fireplace is the most compact solution.
