The NetZero Waterplace Platinum NZWP40B is the top tier 40 inch water vapor fireplace burner from NetZero Fire. It makes a realistic, cool to the touch flame from tap water and LED light, with zero heat, no gas, no venting and no clearance to combustibles. Platinum adds what designers and commercial buyers ask for: more than 30 flame colors, Wi-Fi app and dry contact control, and factory fitted direct plumb components so it runs on a water line indefinitely with automatic fill and drain.

Installation Notes
120V indoor appliance, no venting, no gas. Build a sealed enclosure to the cavity dimensions above with a 120V outlet inside for the 24V transformer, and keep the burner out of drafts, which flatten the flame. Platinum burners ship ready for a direct water connection; run a 1/4 inch line with a shutoff into the enclosure and the unit fills and drains itself. LED light shines upward out of the enclosure unless you build a light trap (NetZero publishes guidelines). Use soft or slightly hard tap water, drain the tanks if unused for more than a week, and clean the float sensors once or twice a year. With no combustion, it is suitable for New York City apartments where gas fireplaces are not permitted. We install and service Waterplace burners across NYC and Long Island; book a free design consultation to plan the enclosure, millwork and water line.

Frequently Asked Questions
Does the Waterplace give off any heat?
No. The flame is cool water vapor lit by LEDs. It is a decorative fire feature only, which is why it can go under a TV, inside cabinetry or in a space where a heater would be a problem.
Can I connect it to a water line?
Yes. Platinum burners include the direct plumb components; connect a 1/4 inch line and the unit fills and drains automatically.
Can I install this in a New York City apartment?
Yes. There is no combustion, gas or venting, so the NYC Fuel Gas Code restrictions on vent-free gas appliances do not apply. It needs only a 120V outlet and, if you want, a water line.
What does Platinum add over the standard Waterplace?
Over 30 flame colors with two rows of controllable LEDs, Wi-Fi app control, a dry contact for home automation, automatic draining, and built-in direct plumb components for unlimited run time.
