Description

The Dimplex Spark 23" Optiflame Inset Electric Fire is a versatile built-in electric fire designed to bring modern flame technology to traditional fireplace openings, mantels and bespoke installations. Dimplex Optiflame® technology creates a realistic flame effect above a glowing log-effect fuel bed, while a choice of 13 flame colours and seven ambient themes allows you to personalise the appearance to complement your room or mood.

Flame brightness and speed can be adjusted across three levels, while an optional crackling log sound adds another dimension to the fireside experience. The integrated 2kW fan heater provides instant supplementary warmth with Hi, Lo, Fan and Off settings, while thermostatic control helps maintain a comfortable room temperature. The flame effect can also be enjoyed independently of the heater, making the Spark suitable for year-round use.

Operation is available directly from the fire, through the supplied remote control or via the Glen Dimplex Connect app, providing convenient access to flame, heating and scheduling functions. An 8-hour timer, sleep mode and 7-day programmable schedule provide additional control, while energy-efficient LED lighting keeps the flame effect low maintenance. With no chimney or gas supply required, the Dimplex Spark 23" offers an easy way to introduce realistic electric fire ambience and useful heating into your home. All covered by a 2-year guarantee for added peace of mind.

Delivery - What to Expect

Our standard deliveries arrive via a 10-tonne lorry (similar in size to a bin wagon or fire engine), equipped with a tail lift and pallet truck.
Access must be suitable: solid, level surfaces (no gravel, steps, steep slopes, or grass).
For palletised deliveries the driver will move the pallet to the nearest accessible point, but cannot go over unsuitable terrain or carry goods indoors, though may place them inside a garage if accessible.
If you have narrow gates, restricted access, or other challenges, please let us know in advance so we can make suitable arrangements.
Our free service is a one-man delivery. We recommend having someone available to assist, especially for larger items.
The delivery driver is not able to unpack or install your goods unless this is a service you have selected.

Checking Your Delivery

On delivery of your palletised goods, the driver will wait up to 10 minutes while you inspect the item(s).
Please check your goods before the driver leaves. If there is any damage or the driver refuses to wait, note this on the delivery slip (e.g., “Driver did not wait – damage unchecked”).
For any damage found, mark the delivery note clearly and contact us immediately.

Missed Deliveries

If you miss your pre-booked delivery, a re-delivery charge may apply.
For smaller items sent via courier (e.g., stove glass), the courier will leave a note with redelivery instructions if you’re not home.

Additional Delivery Notes

Accessory items like fitting kits and liner packs may be sent separately via courier on the same day. You’ll receive email confirmation if this is the case.
Delivery times are generally between 9am–6pm, Monday to Friday.
Delivery depots may send SMS updates, but these aren’t guaranteed.

Please DO NOT book installers, plumbers, electricians or other contractors until your goods have been delivered and checked, as delays can sometimes occur beyond our control.
