“Competitive prices, and in stock. Delivery in two days, and everything required was included. Fitting took only a couple of hours and the fire worked as expected at the first attempt, even though the fitter had never worked on your brand previously, but had no trouble and simply followed the fitting instructions supplied. I would recommend your gas fires to any one, as will the fitter.”

“First class. Ordering etc was easy. Dismantling the old fireplace including gas capping etc occurred with minimal mess. The fire was delivered as expected and the fire installed efficiently, cleanly and clearly.”

Hi Jim, Thanks again for your order and for your review. It's great to see the fireplace and the Flamerite Solace electric fire in situ! Our fitting team at Direct Heating Services works closely alongside gas and electric installers, and so it's good to hear that the work was done as efficiently as we've come to expect. If we can offer any further advice or assistance then please don't hesitate to let us know. Kind regards, Direct Stoves & Fireplaces

“The fireplace is very difficult to use, and the lighting procedure is exceptionally difficult . It is not possible to reduce the heat until 30 minutes has passed at the high level, which is often not wanted. There are no pointers indicating which position is 1 to 6. Also the installer did not take away either the old fireplace nor any of the large boxes which came with the new fireplace.”

Hi Margaret, Thank you for your review. We are sorry to hear of the issues experienced with the fire in question. To clarify in terms of the requirement for a period at max heat, this is in order to warm up the chimney and allow for a proper 'pull' on the flue. The period of time recommended by different manufacturers may vary between models, but virtually all gas fires will require some period of time at maximum heat for the same reason. In terms of the fitting, the installers recommended by our showrooms or the installation team would not advertise the disposal of pre-existing fires or fireplaces, as they do not typically have the refuse licenses required to do so. We can only apologise for any inconvenience that this may have caused. If we can offer any further advice or assistance in terms of the operation of your fire then please don't hesitate to get in touch. Kind regards, Direct Stoves & Fireplaces

Hi Rosie, Thank you for your order and for your review. It's great to hear that our sales team was so helpful and I'm sorry to hear of any issue insofar as the fitting. Many of the installers recommended by ourselves do not have the waste disposal licenses required for taking away old flue components, bricks etc., and would generally advise of this in any installation quotation. This being said, we can only apologise for any confusion. If we can offer any further advice or assistance relating to our products and services then please do let us know, Kind regards, Direct Stoves & Fireplaces

“Always trying to get extra money saying we needed a liner when we didn’t . Nice fire place and surround just not into them trying to make extra cash when you’ve spent a decent amount on the fire and surround”

Hi, Thanks very much for your order and for your review. It's good to hear that you were impressed with the fire and fireplace surround that you received, and we're sorry for any confusion regarding liner components. For gas appliances, whether or not a flex liner may be required is often dependent upon the item chosen and the condition of the chimney. We can see that on this occasion a chimney sweep had inspected your chimney and determined that a liner was not required and that the order was processed without. The sales team will have priced up a gas liner kit for you to consider ahead of inspection so that you had a good picture of potential cost in case this was needed. This being said, please do let us know if we can offer any further advice, assistance or clarification and our team will be happy to help. Kind regards, Direct Stoves & Fireplaces
