Design your own fire with modern burn media or traditional logs and a choice of two frames, using our 'Design Your Fire' feature.

With up to 8.4 kW of heat output, the Evolve 1252 gas fire can easily heat up to 130 m². What's more is that with the Rinnai power flue system, the fire can be installed where other fires cannot go.

IMPORTANT: Evolve fires manufactured from April 2019 have inbuilt Wi-Fi capability. You can easily determine this as the operation guide provided with your fire will have a section on Wi-Fi control.

If you don't have inbuilt Wi-Fi capability and you want Wi-Fi control, a Wi-Fi module is available for purchase, part number R7000. This will need to be fitted by a licensed gasfitter.
