Fire imitation scheme. Making an electrocamine with your own hands

Initially, the fireplace in the house was intended primarily for heating. Nowadays, residents of cities saves central heating from the cold. At the same time, the fireplace is still associated with home comfort, a place to relax and relaxation. Therefore, in the modern interior, I want to acquire your own hearth, but solely for the sake of beauty. For this, the false fireplace is erected, in which the fire is present as heat for the soul, and not for the body.

The homely decorative portal can be made independently or attract a specialist, and you can purchase ready-made lingerie. It all depends on your desires and opportunities. To create a full-fledged scenery, it is necessary to pay attention to the main attribute of the fireplace - fire. Naturally, the real flame is not possible for every fireplace. But to independently create imitation of fire forces anyone.

Types of decorative fireplaces

The market contains a large selection of finished portals. You prefer the finished option or want to do yourself - decide yourself. Before this, familiarize yourself with the features of each type.

1. The most democratic option is a portal of cardboard and foam. They are easy to manufacture and affordable. Imitation of fire in the fireplace with their own hands is allowed only from sources without flame as such. Such materials are easily ignited and require careful relationship. Consider another feature of cardboard and foam - they will not stand heavy items. Therefore, all decorative attributes must be extremely easy.
2. Build a fireplace from plasterboard will not be difficult. The material is easy to process and is available at a price. Its feature in fireproof, so it can easily put candles in it. But, like previous species, plasterboard does not withstand large loads.
3. Plywood is good for simplicity in circulation, unique in its naturalness and environmental friendliness. It is important to know that this material does not like humidity.
4. Brick and stone aesthetically beautiful materials that will serve for a long time. When creating a fireplace focus, elementary skills are required to display bricks and stones. You will have to lay a considerable budget for building. In addition, the final work may be quite weighty and not every floor in a high-rise building will endure the construction.

Create hearth

The liner fireplace is not designed to heat the room. For such a function, there are special electronic foci of a wide variety of sizes, forms, materials. For those who need a fireplace as a designer solution, decide on the view of the fireplace and consider the options of the fire parodies. Let's start with the easiest.

Garlands

Garland itself will be required, the energy source and decorative decorations to it in the form of lane. It is better that the lamps flicker yellow, orange and red.

Add the effect of realism will help lace branches made with their own hands. To create an unusual decoration, you will need: branches of trees, foil, lace, glue, stones.

Window foil branches without gaps, we glue the foil on top of the foil. Let's dry about a day. After, cutting and carefully remove the trees branches. From the stones form a circle (if you wish, the stones can be painted in any color), in the middle lay out the garland, and the resulting lace branches form like a fire. Turn on the garland and logs will challenge in bone colors. This is an amazingly simple and spectacular way to create a coupier to the fireplace.

Candles

You can use candlesticks, candelabras or simply place big candles according to your design. We emphasize that this option is not suitable for each bright fireplace, because the flame languages \u200b\u200bcan leave the black trail.

There is an interesting way to have a spectacular filing of candles in the fireplace. To do this, you will need several medium neat launches. In each, cut out 2-3 recesses with a small candle in a metal stand. The result will be the subtle imitation of the fireplace fire with minimal costs of finance and time.

Salt lamp

Special lamps made of salt crystals perfectly look in a false fireplace. The salt lamp will become an interesting embodiment of the real fire in the fireplace. The main "minus" of such a designer solution is a high cost. But there is a big "plus" - salt crystals will benefit the health of the whole family.

Liquid crystal screen

Put the screen in the fireplace is quite a cost solution. The main complexity of such a replacement of the real fire is to install the screen. The image of the flame will be elegantly dancing and soothingly crackling in the fireplace portal.

Increase the effect of burning fire on the screen will help several mirrors placed in the focus at different distances and at different angles. The on-screen image will be perfectly imitated fire, and the mirrors will create an illusory effect of the volume image.

Prefer more interesting solutions to your interior idea, then there will have to make some efforts. Consider how to make fire more realistic and fascinating your own hands.

Floor from cardboard or real wood with fire from LED lamp and fabric

For self-making, you will need cardboard, glue, scissors, paint, brush. We form a lamp from cardboard, we paint them into the color you like, lay out in the form of a well and glue with each other. The well made from the real tree is created a little simpler: we take harvested lamps and glue the construction glue.

For the fire, the cartridge of the LED lamp will take, randomly flickering with different colors (Ideal it would be combined with red and yellow colors), a ceiling, a light homogeneous lightweight fabric, transmitting light, four durable wires with a length of 15 to 30 cm.

Wake up the ceiling and fix the top of the linen, fasten the wire on the logs, and the other end of each other. On top of the wire fix the fabric. Turn on the LED and enjoy the resulting little non-real bone

Theatrical fire

Very spectacular kind of artificial flame. For him, the following elements will be needed: a silent small fan, diodes of different colors (ideally red, yellow and blue), reflective surface (it can be fragments of mirrors, foil, etc.), Loskutka silk different sizes and shapes, a small box, where all And put.

The box should be decorated, then:

• install the fan in it;
• place diodes next to each other;
• attach ready-made loskuts next to the fan

Fire will be alive. It remains to put the box in the portal and enjoy a beautiful view with a cup of fragrant tea in hand and in a spiritual company.

Aquarium as imitation of fire

The game of water and light always fascinates. You can use this successful ensemble in the fireplace instead of fire. Prepare the following fixtures: Aquarium of any shape and size (the main thing is that it fit in the hearth), LED tape of fiery color, water. At the bottom of the aquarium install the tape, pour into the water aquarium. Decorate the design at your discretion of seashells, trees branches, pebbles, shrinks, pebbles, etc.

Fire is one of the elements that provides a truly magical effect on man. It is impossible to get tired of contemplating a burning flame that relieves fatigue, allows you to relax or, on the contrary, mobilize thoughts, think about important. In the organization of romantic dinner, the fire plays the role of an indispensable addition.

The room electric fireplace may well replace the present, subject to the qualitative implementation of the main functions: the creation of heat and imitation of the flame. But the fireplace in the style of framing, a three-dimensional image, a set of programs, not everyone can buy because of its high cost. Therefore, among beginner masters, the conversation is increasingly and more often about whether it is possible to make electrocamine with their own hands.

Just fascinating sight

Making the heating element is a matter of though troublesome, but quite clear. Elementary skills and physical knowledge will be required here. But the effect of a live flame, at first glance, seems unattainable. However, this is only a deceptive fear that prevents from doing, do and get a great result.

Fire mocks

Regardless of the type of design, imitating the flame, the mock of firewood always will always be. In this question, the flight of fancy masters is only welcome. Butaforia can be bought in the online store. From China, you can send components for fireplaces (we still use this fact hereinafter). In some cases, real firewood is used. With skill with lighting, a good result is obtained.

But if all the searches were not crowned with success, then you will have to do myself. But then the manual work will be doubly more pleasant to watch. Corrugated cardboard is used as a material, it can be found in boxes from under household appliances. There it is often used as a filler between sheets.

Corrugated cardboard

Having made the stubs from such a cardboard and paint them in a brown color, we will get the pole to which the bitch is attached to the tape, made of the same material only with a smaller diameter and length. It remains to fold the firewood in the fireplace, they are similar to the real.

The purchase of electrocamine is approximately as well as a large flat-screen TV. Without the heating function, such a fireplace is actually simply a "TV", showing one 3D image of an animated flame and the sounds that imitates the crackling of burning firewood. This is expensive pleasure representing only aesthetic value. You can make such an electrocamine and with your own hands, saving at the same time an impressive amount. We will consider the technology of making the device with the heating function.

So, we need a device that will not only please the eye and warm the soul, but also perform the function of the heater. Such electrocamines are equipped tubular electric heater (Tan), which, when connected to the power grid, can heat up to 900 degrees Celsius and produce near heat, similar to what comes from the real fire.

Electrograms with heating function are usually equipped with reflectors that are installed on top and can collect, accumulate and reflect heat.

Electrocamine consists of two main parts:

1. which mimics the furnace of the real wood fireplace and flame burning.
2. PortalSpeaking as a scenery for decorating an electrocamine.

We will not consider the technology of making a portal for an electrocamine with their own hands - this topic is worthy of a separate article. And it is best to deal with this during the repair of the room, where the installation of a stationary fireplace is planned.

We are more interested in the device and the manufacture of a focus that can be made with your own hands in the presence of the necessary elements and tools.

Device device

Electric focus with heating function consists of two parts: heating and decorative elements. The first one generates heat, the other imitates the fire in the focus

As a heating element, you can use the usual room heaterIf you do not want to do it from scratch (which may be unsafe). Therefore, here we will not consider in detail the technology of its manufacture. Let's just say that this will require another screen (reflector) to reflect the heat generated and the fan - to ensure better circulation of warm air in the right direction.

The decorative part of the electrocamine consists of a decorations of a stone or brick focus, imitation of fire and smaller lane. For the manufacture of all this, any rebunny material is used in the house.

Production of heater

As already mentioned above, it is better to take advantage of some ready-made factory heater made in compliance with all safety requirements. But if you are well versed in what is written next, then dare!

In all types of electric fireplaces, TEN is used for heating. It may be:

• spiral in a quartz tube;
• biospiral on ceramic grounds;
• nichrome spiral elements.

That is, even a spiral from the iron in a ceramic shell will be suitable for our purposes. Only such spirals may need someSo that the overall power produced is 1-2 kW.

Naturally, all this must be properly installed on some framework, insulate, ground and take care of the wiring, which could withstand the estimated load. For the best distribution and conservation of heat, it is necessary to equip the entire design by the reflector in the form of a kitchen hinder, for the manufacture of which you need a frame from galvanized steel corners and sheet stainless steel.

The heater made in this way can be additionally provided with a temperature controller and even sensors that turn on the device automatically. They can always be found in the store.

Decorating electrocamine

There is where to turn around! It all depends only on the rampant of your fantasy, whose flight can only stop the lack of necessary materials. To simulate fire, we will need "lamps", highlighting and something very similar to live fire.

Length can be made from ordinary cardboard, twisting it into rolls and scrying scotch, then wrap the paper and paint into the right colors. Also, nothing prevents the use of real dry lamps for this, if you have, where to get them.

As a backlight "Flame" best to use lED bulbstransfusions with red and yellow colors. They can be placed behind the decoration of the flame or "smoldering" coal made of transparent tissue or other material.

Here is a phased process of manufacturing the simplest decoration of the flame in the hearth:

1. We take the most ordinary branches of the medium thickness tree (8-10 mm).
2. Wrap their foil, on which we stick the strips of Tulle or lace on top.
3. After drying the glue, the branches are pulled out of the foil (if they are not pulled out - you can cut the foil along, and the lace then glue back into the tube).
4. Put pebbles on the bottom of the fireplace semicircle.
5. In the center of the circle of stones, put the garland fresh in a lump.
6. Above the garland "Shalashik" to install lace lace and copold them up with the residues of the fabric or threads.

To achieve the best Effect, the garland is needed, which alternately flashes yellow and red colors. But even the usual light burning, burning only yellow.

For more advanced flame imitation, various tricks are used: mirrors, rotating light sources behind panel with a picture of fire or transparent fabric, which can be hard to fasten on the frame, or cut into flap and install the fan under them, the air flow from which will cause them to "dance".

Imitation of flames

In modern electrochees for imitation of combustion, tricks are used by the tricks of a completely different kind. In them, realistic fire is born with the help of an ultrasonic steam generator on a quartz plate! The jet of steam from him, rising up, fall into the rays of light bulbs and become visible to the eye. At the same time, the effect is so realistic that before the "languages" of this flame is scary to touch the hand. Although that just a parFormed at room temperature by oscillations of quartz plate under the action of electric current.

Make a similar steam generator at home on their own and means it is possible that the next video proves.

Make a similar thing is very difficult and for this you will need some knowledge or qualified electrician help.

To make your own version of the realistic electrocamine, we will need:

• Fan (cooler from a computer).
• Ultrasonic steam generators.
• Dmx converter.
• LED lights.
• Waterproof box.
• Distilled water.

At the bottom of the waterproof box, we attach ultrasonic steam generators (better than several). They will contribute to the evaporation of water, and the fan located on the side will drive the pair up, not allowing them to be premature to cool, spin and fall.

The lamps are needed to illuminate the pair rising upwards, which in their rays will create the effect of "burning" of decorative firewood, which must be covered with all this tricky design.

Output

I hope you have no questions about how to make electrocamine with your own hands. There is nothing impossible for a man who tanned the idea. You just need to clearly issue the ultimate goal. If you need an electrocamine in an apartment or at the cottage only for aesthetic pleasure, you can make it even from cardboard. But a more functional model will require much longer, labor and financial costs.

Initially, the fireplace in the house performed an exceptionally heating function and only after that the role of interior decoration. Today, a central heating system is used as the main source of heating in an apartment or house. That is why many began to give preference not to a classic solid fuel furnace, but more modern variation called a false fireplace. Such models can be bought or make your own hands from the remedies, as they carry exclusively decorative function.

The fireplace, the imitation of which takes place, can be collected and designed by the hands of an experienced professional who can recreate the necessary image, according to all the wishes and preferences of the customer. Imitation of fire in the focus of such a portal can be done in various ways, the present flame in this case is almost never used.

Main varieties

Before installing an artificial fireplace in a house or apartment, first of all it is recommended to familiarize yourself with the main variations and variations that you can create both your own hands and meet. in specialized stores:

• Imitation of fire in the fireplace can be prepared and reproduced without fire-hazardous sources, eco-friendly and durable materials. You can assemble your own hands at home portal from plasterboard or foam. Such materials are distinguished by affordable cost and ease of use. To work with them, it does not need an expensive and professional tool. The finished product will have a small weight, which is extremely important, especially when installed in the apartment or on the second floor of a private house. Such a false fireplace due to its small mass should not be decorated and decorated with heavy objects and purchased fireboxes. Hypzarton is distinguished by the heat resistance, which in turn allows you to decorate its focus and shelves with candles. The fireplace with candles looks very exquisitely and charming;
• Fireplace, apartment with whom will look original - can be collected from plywood. The portal for the fireplace from plywood is characterized by budgetary. However, it is not very stable and reliable. The fireplace from plywood requires high-quality surface protection, since the material quickly absorbs moisture, swells and deformed. The benefits include environmental friendliness and naturalness of the material;
• Fireplace, stone or brick for which they perform the role of the basis will be more reliable and most refractory. Such materials are well withstanding high temperatures, their sharp differences are distinguished by durability and durability. For particularly large and bulky fireplace portals, it may be necessary to build the foundation. The price of a brick fireplace is high enough, and the construction cost time. However, in such a portal, if desired, electrocamine can be installed. Since the cost of natural stone is high enough, the portal cladding can be performed by artificial minerals.

Creating a focus

Decorative fireplace can be treated with garland. Such a garland is stacked both in the hearth, and can be located on its perimeter, or in chaotic order. It is recommended to select garlands with traditional classic flames of burning lamps. To give the imitation of the burning fire in the fire, you can add ceramic lamps to the hearth.

To add a false fireplace, you can with the help of branches of trees. You can arrange them in any way. As an option: Wrap a foil and lace branches, then fasten various stones, seashells and other decor to glue. You will have lace branches at the output, which can be placed both completely separate and in vases.

Lace can be both over the length of the entire branch and only on a certain area, the interval. After gluing, it is necessary to give a product to dry completely and only after that, use the decor for the design of false fireplace. If desired, such branches can also be colored or supplemented with glitter. Alternatively, put them in the fireplace focus and highlight the LED garland.

Also for decor you can use candles. They can be located apart or located in various openwork candlesticks, candelabras. Install them inside the focus or can also be supplemented with a fireplace shelf. Do not place candles in a stone, beige, cream shade, as during the operation of the decor, on the surface of the portal and in the focus there will be ugly black traces and prints from the candle.

Imitation of fire in the fireplace can be performed in one very interesting way. At the exit you will get a fireplace with candles. To do this, find 2-3 beautiful laminates of the right form and cut out in each of them 2-3 holes. In the resulting holes, lower one candle. It is important that the candles are in the candlesticks or in special protective frames. It will not allow the lanes to light up in the process of burning candles.

As a more expensive option, you can decorate the fireplace focus with a saline lamp. Such a device will look stylish and effectively. The disadvantages include a fairly high cost. The main advantages are the use of health salts, creating a cozy atmosphere in a house or apartment.

Fireplace electric can also perform an extremely decorative function. It can be equipped with a steam generator and even an air humidifier!

Modern technology and fresh solutions

Electrocamine Live Fire is the most realistic flame imitation means. In this case, the imitation is made using modern technologies, namely the LCD screen with a voluminous and high-quality picture and animation.

Make any flame more voluminous and spectacular, can be installed on the contrary and on the sides of the focus, under a slight slope of several large mirrors. The fireplace with a mirror will create the illusion that the fire is real. Install mirrors can also be in the midst.

If you like to create a variety of things with your own hands and want to get the best result, we recommend to build a simulation of flights. To do this, we need decorative firewood, LED garland or lamp, fabric, and a number of other girlfriends.

The basis of our firewood is a cardboard. Each canoe need to cut their cardboard and give the volume, glue. The surface can be painted with acrylic, gouache or watercolor to choose from, after which it is to dry firewood. Firewood glued in the shape of a well and stacked in the hearth. If desired, such cardboard lamps can be replaced by real. In this case, construction glue is used for gluing.

To create volume and characteristic shades, you need to buy a LED lamp in advance, which will flicker various shades. It is recommended to give preference to the characteristic color spectrum - yellow, red, orange. A translucent white fabric is used as a ceiling, and the framework is constructed from four durable wires, the length of which will be 150-300 millimeters.

The light bulb is fixed inside the focus, right above the imitation. The wire frame is installed in the center of the well and is complemented by a translucent cloth. When turned on, a fairly realistic effect of burning flame will be created.

Realistic imitation

One of the most realistic options for creating imitation is the so-called box with fire. To create such an effect it is necessary to buy LED lamps, preferably red, yellow and blue shade. As a reflecting surface, you can choose a small mirror, foil. Also, for this effect, the fabric or scraps (silk) will be required. The so-called fire will be placed in the box.

At the first stage, we produce decoration of the very foundation (box), after which we act according to the following step by step management:

• We put in the box fan;
• LED light bulbs are located and fixed near each other;
• Space near the fan is complemented by flap.

Such a box with fire is placed inside the fireplace portal and allows you to reproduce a rather realistic effect.

You can also perform imitation using aquarium. To speak more detail, you will need to prepare aquarium of this size so that it can be installed in the focus. After that, inside the aquarium is placed and the garland with LEDs is fixed, the container is filled with water. When the garland is turned on, the effect of blasting water will be created, which looks very original.

The internal space of the aquarium can be decorated with seashells, stones, algae and other elements at your discretion.

The category of the most realistic and complex in the embodiment of variations includes the creation of the illusion of the flame burning in the focus using steam. To develop a couple, you will need to buy 2-3 devices generating fog (ultrasound).

It will also be necessary to prepare a fan, the tank in which water will be poured, the framework for the placement of imitation and the RGB lamps.

Devices that generate fog are installed in the inside of the box together with the fan, then place the lamps, and install the prepared reservoir for flooding water to the generators. Such an effect is very realistic, but at the same time his recreation costs quite expensive.

The fireplace in the interior of your apartment for home will be a real homeie and fill the living room, the bedroom comfort. The outdoor fireplace can be both confrient and island, angular, depending on your wishes and preferences. False the hearth is fairly simple in the installation, it has small dimensions and optimal weight, and some models can rearranged from place to place. To simulate the flame you will need mainly inexpensive workflows, and the design itself does not require the erection of an additional foundation and the smoke.

Such a home focus will allow you to arrange cozy family evenings in the company of friends and close to a cup of warm tea.

In this video, you can consider how the imitation of fire in the fireplace looks like:

The fireplace device is one of the interesting interior decisions that give the internal decoration of the dwellings internal heat, comfort and home attractiveness. But it is not always possible to enter a real fireplace in the design. As a rule, this is due to the inability to arrange the chimney, the lack of space for storage of firewood and other reasons associated with the use of open-fire indoors.

There is nothing complicated to create a fireplace imitation without heating in the apartment with your own hands.This requires sheet carcarter sheets, outdoor decoration materials, fantasy for the project and a good mood for work. The false fireplace is ready and all that remains, it is to fill it with the languages \u200b\u200bof artificial flame, sit in the chair and enjoy the game of light and shadow.

The main task of the illusion of live fire in the focus is to form a spectacular, the most realistic sensation of the burning flame. Visualization is the main element of the task, but not the only one. For the completeness of the perception of the picture, not only the visual component, but also the corresponding cracks and the smell of burning panels, as well as the physical sensation of the heat flux are necessary. To do this, there are modern methods for creating a cold fire in a false fireplace.

A bit of history

The first experiments of creating a safe fire and the transformation of household heaters in the elements of the decor of the residential premises have been taken long. The sources of this direction include electrocamine with heating shades and a decorative panel. It was performed in the form of smoldering coal with the inner backlight of the usual incandescent lamp. Similar simulators could be found in the middle of the last century.

Dynamic gave a few later illumination. The electrical appliances were equipped with foil strips, which rose in the flows of warm air and reflected bizarre glare on the body of the device, creating the effect of a flickering flame.

The first successful illusion of live fire was cutting light cloth, pegless in artificial air jets, injected with a built-in fan. This principle of imitation of open flame languages \u200b\u200blay down the basis for the further development of the design direction and still has the right to life.

The cold fire, obtained by this way "in its pure form", has a sufficient level of entertainment, light glare is bizarre and uniquely change their position in space. But the realism of such imitation is low, since the picture looks hand drawn. To give the volume and "visual survivability", a built-in system of mirrors and light filters is used, as well as electronic control of illumination elements.

In addition to the electron-mechanical methods of creating a live fire effect, digital and LCD technology, cold steam generators, 3D holograms with stereo effect and other achievements of the modern development of science and technology are widely used.

There are several ways to light safe fire in the apartment fireplace. Consider them in more and more detail.

Method first. Simpled

If there is no desire or ability to make the manufacture of a complex electron-mechanical design, then you can use the simplest solution of the task: incur in the fireplace hearth image of the burning firewood. To give some similarity of realism, it is necessary to install point lights with light filters of various colors.

The lowest, but no less spectacular, will be the use of an old Christmas tree garland. For this, mini-plaffers from the inside are separated by reflective foil. The controller built into the garland will make it possible to imitate the dynamics of light reimbirth, both from live flame languages. To give a picture a visual stereo volume, you can pick up a holographic 3D image of open fire suitable size.

The method of the second. Theatrical

As can be seen from the name, this method is borrowed from theatrical details. When, on the plot of the play on the stage, it is necessary to dissolve a safe fire, decorators apply that such.

To dilute in the fireplace theatrical fire, you need to stock the following elements:

• silent medium power fan;
• halogen lamps;
• colored light filters of the respective shades;
• white silk.

The fan body is dismantled. Its working part is rigidly attached at the bottom of your fireplace so that the injected air is perpendicular to the base. The wiring stacked into the cable channels and is outputting the fireplace.

Three halogen lamps are attached below the fan working plane: one along the central axis of the fan, two - at an angle of 30 degrees in each direction. The direction of light on the future focus should be up to bottom.

As brackets for lamps, you can use the remains of the bent metal profile for GKC. At a distance of 1-2 cm before each lamp, light filters are mounted. Additionally, it is recommended to put a light filter of blue, this will give the flame more exotic glare.

The next stage is the imitation of flame languages. Future flames of the wrong shape are cut from white silk and are attached to the fan grille in the "artistic disorder".

An open fire simulator is ready to work. It remains to adjust the power of the fan, the angle of inclination of the filters and fall asleep artificial parts of the focus with birch coal.

The third way. Water par

All these devices can be purchased in retail or dismantle from old concert equipment that creates a steam effect.

Fog generators are installed on the bottom of hermetic tank for distilled water. Each generator in its design implies a membrane, which by vibration of high frequency creates local reduced pressure. In conditions, low pressure, water evaporates at temperatures close to room.

The fan is rigidly mounted in the active evaporation zone and drives the resulting steam upwards.LED backlight, managed by a decoder and controller creates a very realistic visual sensation of the game of light and the shadow of live flames.

At the bottom of the fireplace center, the pairs highlighted more and there is a feeling of the presence of an open flame. In the top - the backlight is less intense and the illusion of smoke is created.

To prevent the formation of excess condensate, a diaphragm is installed in the upper part of the focus.

Method fourth. The use of salt plafmon

Salt electrical lamp is a specific electrical extent. The ceiling is made of natural crystal - salt. Under such a flappist, an ordinary incandescent lamp is installed. Passing through the edges of the crystal at a different angle, the light stream is refracted and externally very realistic resembles the game of alive flames.

Using plaffers of various colors, a realistic imitation of live fire is created. And applying lamps with different configuration and sizes, a small bonfire is easily simulated.

A similar method has its advantages and disadvantages.

Benefits can be attributed to simplicity in the manufacture of such an illusion, its realism. In addition, when heated from the incandescent lamp, the hydrochloride layer saturates the ambient air with negative ions. This leads to neutralization of positive ions, which has a positive effect on the health of its owners.

The disadvantages of such a method include a very significant price of such devices and an infrequent appearance of them in a free sale.

Fifth method. TV instead of living fire

The use of a flat LCD television in the fireplace is one of the most common task solving options. But it should be noted, not from low-cost.

If the choice falls on such a "incitement" method of artificial flame in the fireplace, then first it makes sense to find the LCD TV, and only then, based on its size, mount the fireplace housing. The TV screen is installed at a recess of 10-12 cm into the fireplace center. Its plastic framing is hidden by decorative elements.

Through the USB port built into the TV on the screen, the entry found on the Internet is played. Depending on the mood and the environment, you can choose one of several records: the game of flames, glowing coals or a bright bonfire. The selected entry with multiple repeat and will serve as a live fire imitation in the focus.

If on the inner planes to position the system of mirrors and light filters, then the picture visually will acquire the volume and will look very natural.

Decorative firewood for fireplaces

To make a complete species, the fireplace under the cold fire must be "put" firewood and coals. On the shop windows of specialized stores there is a huge selection of decorative firewood from plastic or ceramics. Such units exactly repeat the texture of a dry or partially burnt tree. Imitation, purchased or done by hand, will turn the hearth to the home heat center and comfort.

In order to obtain greater realism under the wood calculation, the backlight with red light filters is installed. In more expensive variants of decorative firewood, there is an internal illumination with an unofficial flicker cycle.

To give the integrity of the picture, small gaps between decorative firewood are recommended to float with natural charcoal.
