Fire FX Atmos 135R Electric Fire

The Atmos 135R is the family all-rounder and the width we fit most often. At 1350mm it balances a 50 to 55 inch television nicely, suits the typical Yorkshire living room wall, and leaves room either side for the media wall to breathe. If you are unsure which Atmos to choose, this is the one to measure against first.

The 140mm depth means a standard stud build carries it, and we design the media wall as one piece: fire recess, TV recess or bracket above, shelving or panelling around, and the fused spur run neatly inside the wall. Symmetry matters at this width, so we set out the wall around the centreline of the fire.

One width down, the 105R suits smaller walls and costs a little less; one width up, the 165R adds 300mm of flame and starts to demand a bigger room. All four models share the same 450mm height, 140mm depth, 1.5kW heater and controls, so nothing changes but the width of the view. Match the fire to the TV and the wall, not to the biggest number.

The 135R is our default proposal for the media walls we build in the family homes of Wakefield, north Leeds and the estates around York: wide enough to look generous under a mid-size TV, without forcing furniture out of a normal-sized room. No flue and no smoke control rules to consider.
