Amigaman asked a question 02/11/2006 1:22 am (5 years ago):

can you please pass on model name and number please

Smirky says 02/11/2006 9:17 am (5 years ago):

Will do, will be in the house later today so post up this evening.

jebusmusic asked a question 02/11/2006 11:33 am (5 years ago):

Stupid question, but do you need to be on Gas for this to work? Or is it a small cannister type job?!

str8_away asked a question 02/11/2006 2:28 pm (5 years ago):

Does this give out much heat?
Can you provide a link for some information?
THanks

whiteshadow asked a question 02/11/2006 6:43 pm (5 years ago):

can you post dimensions for it please

Smirky says 02/11/2006 8:37 pm (5 years ago):

This is a focal Point Plasma Fire, full instructions, specs dimension, etc can be found at:

http://www.focalpointfires.plc.uk/Platinum+1.pdf

My understanding is that it does need to be gas mains connected but I am not 100% on this, have a flick of the manual on the link above.

Yes, it fairly belts out the heat. I bought it for cosmetic reasons but ended up using it for quickly heating up the sitting room on a cold night. Check the official BTU rating etc on the manual via above link.

Smirky says 03/11/2006 3:09 pm (5 years ago):

I have a provisional offer of €700 from someone off adverts.ie, awaiting confirmation. Consider this item sold for now but please feel free to register an offer should the deal not happen. Thanks. S

themoney asked a question 15/11/2006 11:31 am (5 years ago):

Did the above deal happen, is the item sold?

Smirky says 15/11/2006 9:59 pm (5 years ago):

Deal not confirmed but I will have definite answer by Friday, at which point I will put it back on the market if needs be.

I am happy to accept provisional offers in the meantime, should that sale fall through.

Smirky says 17/11/2006 1:22 pm (5 years ago):

OK, original purchaser did not come up with the cash so this is back up for sale again.

I am moving house in the next week so if anyone wants to see it in situe & operating then shout fast!

Smirky says 23/11/2006 2:11 pm (5 years ago):

Has now been removed from house so can't be seen working anymore but I will give a guarantee with it that it works when installed

Smirky says 27/11/2006 6:03 pm (5 years ago):

Price dropped to €600

magentis asked a question 27/11/2006 11:45 pm (5 years ago):

-thread spoliing removed consider this a warning-

sorry i will rephrase then.
is this the same fire as shown in the b&q catalog for €610?

it was never my intention to "thread spoliing" i was just trying to find out if it was the same unit.

Smirky says 28/11/2006 8:55 am (5 years ago):

Ah, Magentis, welcome back. Still a bit grumpy with me about the lawnmower I see? Get a life and stop thread spoiling or we will see what the Mods have to say about banning you.

For anyone else interested, see attached thread where Magentis didn't do what what was asked and as a result lost out on a lawnmower I gave away for free and now he is following me around being a vindictive twit.

Great price on this fire ,a lot cheaper than I can buy it for and I get a 30% discount on them.
Will have a look and see if I can find a spot for it at home.

TempestSabre asked a question 28/11/2006 11:26 am (5 years ago):

Out of interest. How can a gas fire be flueless?

Smirky says 28/11/2006 1:44 pm (5 years ago):

Thanks Brian, TBH if it does not sell I will put it up in my new house somewhere, its just I am 6 months away from being ready with builders etc so seems a shame to leave it lying around. Shout if you are interested.

My understanding, Tempestsabre, is that it "filters" the fumes & also acts asd a convection unit so it radiates heat, not just from the flame. I'm not so technical on the gas fire front!

My chimney in the picture is blocked up & I had it hanging off the olf Chimney Breast with 3 screws! (BTW I finally put that amp up so i will PM you a link if you are still interested)

Cheers.

Smirky says 28/11/2006 1:45 pm (5 years ago):

Can deliver pretty much anywhere in Dublin area

Smirky says 30/11/2006 9:08 am (5 years ago):

Any update on whether you have a spot for this Brian?

311 asked a question 30/11/2006 11:43 am (5 years ago):

Sorry smirky ,I've no chance of putting it in before christmas .

I've to buy a new suite of furiture and carpet ,promises I have to keep .

Take care.

Smirky says 01/12/2006 1:47 pm (5 years ago):

No worries Brian, thanks for the interest.

Smirky says 03/12/2006 9:10 pm (5 years ago):

Price drop - First €500 secures

Smirky says 09/12/2006 5:43 pm (5 years ago):

Any takers?

philcsl asked a question 14/12/2006 9:49 pm (5 years ago):

I'll offer €300 and can collect

Smirky says 14/12/2006 10:43 pm (5 years ago):

Sorry Phil, too low I'm afraid. If I don't get a decent price I will store it & install into the new house once the builders have been. €500 & its delivered to your door. S

philcsl asked a question 15/12/2006 12:38 am (5 years ago):

No worries, thanks Smirky. I've seen it new where magentis mentioned so i'll hang on for Jan sales and see if it drops at all. Its a nice model though, best of luck.

Smirky says 15/12/2006 10:23 am (5 years ago):

No worries, thanks for the interest

Smirky says 29/08/2007 11:44 am (4 years ago):

Don't think there is going to be space for this in the new house now so will accept €300.

philcsI I doubt your offer still stands but if it does you obviously have first shout.

Smirky says 17/09/2007 4:44 pm (4 years ago):

No word from Philcsl so open to offers

Smirky says 11/10/2007 8:24 pm (4 years ago):

Any takers, before I pack this off to ebay or Buy & Sell?

Lolly167 asked a question 11/10/2007 10:27 pm (4 years ago):

just text my pal about it - she might be interested. Let you know before morning.

davidsatelle100 asked a question 12/10/2007 8:20 am (4 years ago):

What is involved in getting this onto the gas?? Just wondering if its a big big job to have it installed

Smirky says 12/10/2007 10:59 am (4 years ago):

Basically the same as any other gas fire.

Assuming you already have gas in your house the plumber basically takes a line off this & runs it to where you want the fire placed. The pipe runs into the back of the fire so it is hidden from view.

Its as easy as that but do note that no gas fire is DIY installation and you need a registered Gas Fitter to install.

My plumber did this for me for €80 off memory.

amandac asked a question 12/10/2007 12:22 pm (4 years ago):

provisional offer of 200, just have to check with the hubby if he can get someone to fit it

Smirky says 14/10/2007 1:01 pm (4 years ago):

Was hoping for a bit closer to the €300 Amanda, and this is still a real bargain at that price, but if there are no higher offers before you come back and confirm your offer then I might just let it go for the €200.

davidsatelle100 asked a question 14/10/2007 2:00 pm (4 years ago):

if its going for 200 i'll take it off you

Smirky says 15/10/2007 5:52 pm (4 years ago):

Amanda provisionally in at €200 David, a higher offer will pip her offer. Any increase on €200?

davidsatelle100 asked a question 15/10/2007 6:01 pm (4 years ago):

go 205 then just to finish it

Smirky says 16/10/2007 6:52 am (4 years ago):

Sold to the highest bidder so! You got yourself a bargain!

Drop me a PM to arrange collection.
