This year is about cleaner flames, slimmer lines, and smarter controls.
Below are the standout trends we’re seeing—and how to shop them at Pure Flame Co without guesswork.
Long, low, and minimal is still in. Homeowners are building “TV + fireplace” media walls with recessed, trim-less faces and clean surrounds. The look works in condos and great rooms alike, and it’s easiest to achieve with electric or water-vapor units.
Editor pick for the look: Latitude II 78-in Smart Wall Mount (Litedeer ZEF78V) — slim body, Wi-Fi control, wide viewing window.
Why it’s trending: media walls are a top renovation request and pair well with linear electric fireplaces in open-concept spaces.
Wi-Fi, routines, and voice control are normal now. Buyers want to set schedules, lock kid-safe settings, and adjust flame/heat from the sofa.
Smart-appliance adoption continues to grow across home categories, so expect more app features in fireplaces, too.
Water-vapor fireplaces create 3D flames with ultra-fine mist and LED lighting. They’re safe to touch, add humidity instead of smoke, and photograph beautifully—perfect for media walls and commercial spaces.

Try a compact unit: Dimplex 28″ Opti-myst Aura
The tech’s realism and safety profile are driving adoption in 2025 renovations and hospitality spaces.
Patios keep getting upgrades: fire tables on small decks, linear burners on big terraces, and fire-and-water bowls near pools. Homeowners want ambiance without a full masonry build.
Market data shows steady demand growth for fire pits and outdoor flame features into 2025.
Where gas makes sense, buyers are choosing sealed, direct-vent units. These pull combustion air from outdoors and exhaust outside, cutting drafts and indoor pollutants while keeping efficiency high.
Sealed combustion is a best-practice for indoor air quality and building efficiency, and it’s favored by energy agencies.
Wood is still popular for real heat and off-grid resilience—but with modern fireboxes that burn cleaner and hotter. EPA-certified stoves and inserts meet strict emissions limits and can heat large spaces with seasoned fuel.

Solid value pick: Enerzone Solution 2.3 Wood Stove
EPA guidance favors certified heaters for cleaner burn and compliance.
Designers are using see-through units to connect zones (living ↔ dining, bed ↔ bath) and corner formats to anchor small rooms without a heavy surround.

Real product example: Napoleon CLEARion Elite 60 See-Through
Ultra-wide screens (60–100″) with shallow chassis are replacing deep boxes. The payoff: a cinematic flame with standard 2×4 framing or even surface mount in apartments.
Good place to start: Recessed & Wall-Mounted
Wide format, simple install: Napoleon Purview 100
Instead of cranking a central furnace, many owners “heat where they live.” Electric and gas units with blowers cover living rooms and dens, while bedrooms often get smaller, quiet electrics. It saves energy and keeps rooms comfortable.
