Smart Move The new flueless EcoSmart fireplace is the rage in contemporary home interior design. It works as a modern fireplace, room divider or an accent piece. EcoSmart is now available at Borrelli Design+Cabinetry. EcoSmart units can be fitted into freestanding furnishings or cabinetry; wall fitted or inserted into an existing fireplace. It offers the ambience of a real open flame without a utility connection, fixed chimney space or smoke. EcoSmart fireplace is UL compliant and recently won a Best of the Year award for innovation by Interior Design Magazine (December 2006 edition). Also, fuel for the EcoSmart unit is available in abundant quantities at Borrelli Design+Cabinetry. For more info: www.ecosmartfire.com/USA/home
