- DISCOVER THE NEW OUTDOOR RANGE
The ultimate and lifelike fire experience, with no emissions. With multiple beautiful flame images, a LED glow bed that can change colour, realistic sounds and cosy warmth, the Virtuo Evolve has all the benefits of a regular fireplace, and much more. The fireplace can be placed anywhere, all you need is a power socket. The fire is also very easy to control via remote control or the DRU app, set the heat, flames, light and sound yourself.
The DRU Virtuo 150 Evolve LCD Electric Fire represents the absolute pinnacle of modern electric fireplace technology. Engineered for homeowners who want nothing but the best, this groundbreaking fire uses advanced 3D LCD flame projection technology to recreate the look, depth and movement of a real wood burning fire with astonishing realism. It is not just an electric fire – it is a complete reimagining of what a fireplace can be.
As the front facing, single-sided model in DRU’s flagship Virtuo range, the Virtuo 150 Evolve is designed to be installed as a stunning hole-in-the-wall feature or as part of a luxury media wall installation, making it the perfect companion for a TV mounted above. The wide landscape format, combined with ultra clear viewing glass, creates a bold architectural statement that instantly elevates any interior.
Unlike traditional electric fires that rely on mirrors or LED effects, the DRU Virtuo 150 Evolve uses high-definition LCD flame images projected in true 3D, producing flames that move, glow and behave just like real fire. Multiple flame scenes are available, allowing you to choose different moods and intensities depending on the time of day or season.
The effect is further enhanced by a glowing LED ember bed with multiple colour options, lifelike brown log fuel bed, and optional crackling fire sound, creating a multi-sensory experience that is genuinely indistinguishable from a real fireplace. This is electric fire technology at its most advanced – immersive, cinematic and incredibly convincing.
To ensure nothing distracts from the flame picture, the Virtuo 150 Evolve is available with DRU’s patented Clear View+® anti-reflective glass as an upgrade. This premium glass dramatically reduces reflections, especially in rooms with darker interiors or limited natural light, ensuring the flames remain sharp, deep and vivid from every angle. The result is a truly uninterrupted view of the fire that feels alive within the wall.
The DRU Virtuo 130 Evolve is completely electric, meaning no chimney, flue, gas supply or ventilation is required. It can be installed almost anywhere in the home – living rooms, bedrooms, apartments, extensions, or even commercial spaces such as hotels and restaurants.
Because it produces zero emissions, no combustion gases and no fine particles, it is one of the most sustainable fireplaces available today. You get all the ambience of a real fire, with none of the environmental impact, mess or maintenance. Simply plug into a standard power socket and enjoy instant atmosphere.
Unlike gas fires, which can only be used when heat is needed, the Virtuo 150 Evolve allows you to enjoy the flame effect with or without heat. This means you can enjoy the glow, depth and movement of the flames all year round, even on warm evenings, making it as much a design feature as a heat source.
When heat is required, the integrated heater provides 1kW or 2kW output, ideal for topping up room temperature quickly and efficiently.
The Virtuo 150 Evolve is controlled via a remote control or the DRU Fire app, giving you complete control over flames, lighting, sound and heat from your sofa or smartphone. Adjust flame brightness, change colours, activate the crackling sound, or set a weekly heating program, the fire adapts to your lifestyle, not the other way around.
The Virtuo 150 Evolve is a full-depth electric fire with a built-in depth of 510mm (20″), a key design feature that allows for its exceptionally deep and glowing fuel bed. This added depth creates a far more realistic fire experience, giving the flames space to sit naturally among the logs and embers, closely mirroring the look of a real wood-burning fireplace.
To accommodate this depth, it’s common practice to build a stud wall within the room to recess the fire, which not only makes installation straightforward but also opens up exciting design possibilities. A stud wall instantly adds character to an otherwise plain room, whether painted in a feature colour, finished with Venetian plaster, or clad in stone, wood or contemporary panels, and it also provides the perfect opportunity to recess a TV above, hide cables, and neatly conceal media boxes for a clean, high-end finish.
DRU have been crafting premium fireplaces since 1754, and that heritage is evident in every detail of the Virtuo 150 Evolve. From the ribbed cast interior and premium materials to the flawless flame presentation, this fire is the result of centuries of expertise combined with cutting-edge digital innovation.
For homeowners looking for the most realistic, most advanced, and most luxurious electric fire available, the Virtuo 150 Evolve stands in a class of its own.
