Cool Flame by Planika

We did the impossible.

We changed water into mist.

And mist into fire.

Cool Flame creates a realistic fireplace effect using water vapor, light and airflow — with no combustion, no smoke, no flue.

An ultrasonic generator turns still water into a fine, cold mist — silent, clean, controlled.

Sculpted airflow shapes the mist while LED engines paint a flame indistinguishable from the real thing.

What is Cool Flame

A new category of fireplace,
built for modern interiors.

Cool Flame fireplace creates the visual experience of fire using ultrasonic water vapor, active LED lighting and controlled airflow.

No wood. No gas. No bioethanol. Fueled only by water and light — it brings the atmosphere of fire — clean, controllable and ready to build into the interior.

This makes Cool Flame a safer choice for interiors where people move close to the fireplace — including homes, hotels, restaurants, showrooms and public spaces.

How it works

Vapour, sculpted by air,
painted by light.

— Step 01

Ultrasonic mist

A submerged generator emits high-frequency vibrations that lift water into a fine, cold vapour.

— Step 02

Sculpted airflow

A silent fan and heater channel the mist into the flame chamber, shaping its rise and movement.

— Step 03

Active LED

Programmable LED engines illuminate the mist — height, colour and intensity adjustable in real time.
