Is the Bio Flame WT-98 Right for Your Project?
Its 98-inch format makes the WT-98 especially suitable for substantial feature walls and large-scale architectural applications.
Best For
- Large residential feature walls
- Living rooms and entertainment spaces
- Modern architectural fireplace installations
- Commercial interiors
- Hospitality and reception environments
- Large linear fireplace features
- Projects where combustion is not desired
- Spaces where supplemental heat is unnecessary
- Smart-home projects using app or voice control
Do Not Choose the WT98 If
- You need supplemental room heating.
- You specifically want a real combustion flame.
- The project cannot accommodate the required cutout dimensions.
- The installation cannot maintain the required airflow and clearances.
- The unit will be exposed directly to rain, water, or persistent humidity.
Ultra-Realistic 3D Water Vapor Flame Technology
The Bio Flame WT-98 creates its flame presentation with ultrasonic water vapor technology rather than burning wood, gas, or ethanol.
Water vapor works together with LED illumination to produce an ultra-realistic 3D flame effect without actual combustion.
Because the WT-98 is designed around a decorative water vapor flame system, it produces no heat, smoke, or emissions.
Buyer decision: Choose the WT-98 when your project requires a large 98-inch flame presentation without added heat. If heating the room is a primary requirement, select a heat-producing fireplace instead.
Adjustable Flame Appearance
7 Adjustable Flame Colors
Choose from seven flame colors to suit the surrounding interior, atmosphere, or design preference.
5 Flame-Height Levels
Five adjustable flame-height levels allow the visual intensity and prominence of the flame effect to be changed.
Adjustable Vapor Density
The manufacturer's operating instructions provide controls for increasing and decreasing flame regulation and fine adjustment of vapor density.
Built-In Ventless Fireplace Design
The WT-98 is designed as a built-in ventless water vapor fireplace. Its flame effect is created without the combustion process associated with traditional wood-, gas-, or ethanol-burning fireplaces.
Airflow requirement: Ventless does not mean installation airflow requirements can be ignored. The manufacturer instructs installers to leave an open air gap at the bottom of the fireplace niche for air intake.
Smart Home & Fireplace Controls
The WT-98 includes built-in Wi-Fi and remote control and provides several options for operating the fireplace.
Remote Control
Operate fireplace functions using the supplied handheld remote control.
Smartphone App
Control compatible fireplace functions through The Bio Flame smartphone app.
Amazon Alexa
Integrate the WT-98 with Amazon Alexa for compatible smart-home operation.
Google Home
The fireplace also supports compatible Google Home integration.
The WT-98 arrives with its Wi-Fi functionality built in, allowing smart-home and smartphone operation without adding a separate Wi-Fi accessory.
Flexible Water Supply Options
The Bio Flame WT-98 supports both manual water filling and a direct water supply connection, giving installers flexibility when planning the fireplace installation.
Manual Water Filling
A permanent water-line connection is not required when the manual filling system is used. The manufacturer provides a filling hose and instructions for filling the fireplace through its integrated filling system.
Direct Water Connection
The fireplace can also be connected to a water supply. The manufacturer instructs that once the filling hose is connected to a water tap, the fireplace begins filling automatically and is ready for use after the auto-fill function switches off.
WT98 water-data limitation: The supplied WT-98 information does not provide a WT98-specific water-tank capacity, refill volume, or operating time. Do not infer these values from smaller Bio Flame models.

Bio Flame WT-98 Water Vapor Fireplace FAQs
Does the Bio Flame WT-98 produce heat?
No. The Bio Flame WT-98 is a decorative water vapor fireplace that does not produce heat; choose a heat-producing fireplace instead if supplemental room heating is required.
Does the Bio Flame WT-98 require venting?
No traditional fireplace venting is required because the WT-98 creates its flame effect with ultrasonic water vapor rather than combustion. Do not block the required air intake at the bottom of the fireplace niche.
What are the Bio Flame WT-98 cutout dimensions?
The manufacturer lists the WT98 cutout at 2395 mm long × 180 mm wide × 250 mm deep. Do not use the fireplace's 2490 × 193 × 168 mm overall dimensions as the cutout dimensions.
Does the Bio Flame WT-98 require a water line?
No permanent water-line connection is required when using the manual filling system; the WT-98 also supports a direct water connection. Follow the manufacturer filling instructions for the selected water-supply method.
Does the Bio Flame WT-98 work with Alexa and Google Home?
Yes. The WT-98 has built-in Wi-Fi and supports Amazon Alexa and Google Home in addition to remote-control and smartphone-app operation.
