Indoor Electric Fireplaces for Modern Indian Interiors
Indoor electric fireplaces bring the visual drama of fire into modern interiors with complete safety, control and ease. Using advanced LED flame technology, these fireplaces recreate the movement and glow of real fire without smoke, real flame, ash or chimney requirements.
Often referred to as artificial fireplaces or LED fireplaces, they are ideal for Indian apartments, villas, bedrooms, living rooms, TV walls, restaurants, cafés and hotels where traditional fireplaces are impractical.
At Spacio, we curate premium electric fireplaces from leading international brands such as Planika, engineered for safe indoor use, easy installation and long-term reliability.
What Is an Indoor Electric Fireplace?
An indoor electric fireplace is an artificial fireplace that creates a flame effect using LED lighting, reflective panels and layered depth technology. The visual effect mimics real fire without combustion.
Many models include optional heating that can be switched on or off independently, allowing the fireplace to be used purely for ambience or for light warmth when required.
Why Choose an Electric Fireplace in India?
Electric fireplaces are widely chosen in India because they eliminate the technical and safety challenges of real fire.

- Safe for apartments, high-rise homes and air-conditioned interiors
- No smoke, soot, ash or combustion
- Plug-and-play installation with a simple electrical connection
- Optional heat for cooler months

Where Can Electric Fireplaces Be Installed?
Because electric fireplaces produce no smoke and controlled heat, they can be installed in a wide range of interior settings.

Electric Fireplace vs Water Vapour Fireplace
Both electric and water vapour fireplaces are advanced artificial fireplace solutions, but they serve different design needs.
- Electric fireplaces use LED flame visuals and may include optional heating

Electric fireplaces are preferred when simple electrical installation and optional warmth are required.
TV Wall and TV Unit Integration
One of the most common applications of electric fireplaces in India is installation below televisions within TV walls or TV units.
Because heat output is controlled and optional, electric fireplaces can be safely integrated into wooden cabinetry, stone cladding or feature walls when designed correctly.
