Its classic proportions make it ideal for fireplace upgrades, renovations, and traditional surrounds, while its modern technology allows complete control over the flame picture, colour, sound, heat, and ambience.

The flame display includes depth, movement, smoke effects, and spark details, helping recreate the illusion of a real wood-burning fire. With ultra-sharp flame visuals and customisable colour settings, the Opulus offers a flame picture that can be tailored to suit both traditional and contemporary interiors.

Smart App and Remote Control Control the Opulus your way using the C&J Smart App or the premium remote handset. The app allows you to adjust flame colour, fuel bed colour, brightness, heat, sound, and settings directly from your smartphone or tablet. You can also use My Flame mode to explore nine pre-set flame and log combinations, or customise your own settings to match your mood. Optional Sound and Ambient Lighting For a more immersive fireplace experience, the Opulus offers optional crackling log sound, adding a multi-sensory element to the flame effect. Optional LED ambient lighting strips can also be integrated around the fireplace, helping create a complete designer look with additional room atmosphere. Woodland Log Set with Upgrade Option The Opulus 16" is supplied with a standard Woodland Log Set, featuring pulsating illuminated logs designed to capture the magic of a real wood-burning fire. For an even more authentic fuel bed, the fire can be upgraded with the Real Wood Log Set at any time. This gives customers the flexibility to enhance the fire after installation if desired. Fascia and Fret Compatibility The Opulus 16" is compatible with 14 fascia and fret styles, allowing you to tailor the finished fireplace to suit your interior. This flexibility makes it suitable for both traditional fireplace settings and more contemporary room designs.
