Why settle for just a fire or just a heat pump?
Designed and assembled right here in New Zealand, the Velare 1500 is built for our climate and our homes — equally at home heating a winter living room or cooling it down on a summer afternoon. Powerful performance meets intuitive airflow control in one sleek package.
The Hybrid Electric Fire: Performance without Compromise
The Velare 1500 brings both together — the soul of a real fire and the efficiency of high-capacity climate control — in a single, beautifully resolved unit.
A Kiwi Original: Built for Our Conditions
Proudly designed and assembled in New Zealand, the Velare 1500 is engineered to meet our unique architectural standards and climate demands — performing as well as it looks in any New Zealand home.
Crystal-Clear Viewing, Zero Glare
Specialised anti-reflective glass means nothing stands between you and the flame. Enjoy the full depth, flicker, and glow of the fire from anywhere in the room — no reflections, no distractions.
FlameCore technology produces a remarkably lifelike flame effect — available with or without heat — so you can enjoy the ambience any time of year, on demand.
Set the Mood, Your Way
Three independently controlled lighting zones — Flame, Ember Bed, and Downlights — give you complete creative control. Choose from up to 11 designer colour themes and three intensity levels to dial in exactly the atmosphere you want.
Smart Airflow for Every Season
Precision-adjustable louvres let you direct airflow where it's needed most — upward for cooling in summer, or sweeping warmth across the room in winter. Comfort that works with the season, not against it.
Serious Climate Performance
The Velare 1500 delivers the thermal output of a gas fire with the clean efficiency of electric technology. It's a high-performance climate solution that happens to look like a work of art.
Get the most from your Velare 1500 with our helpful video guides. Watch step-by-step videos covering media setup, filter cleaning, and glass panel removal to keep your unit running at its best.
