Abstract

Provided is a water vapor fireplace, including a fireplace body. The fireplace body is sleeved with a frame. A top cover is inserted in the frame, and a light-transmitting channel is installed on the top cover. A water tank is installed inside the fireplace body, and a mist outlet is installed on the water tank. A light-emitting diode (LED) light group is arranged below the light-transmitting channel. A fan is installed on the water tank, a mist maker is installed at an inner bottom of the water tank, and a heating element is installed on a side of the water tank. By adopting a positive temperature coefficient (PTC) heating plate, a safety factor is high, and no “redness” phenomenon on a heater is generated. Moreover, when an external temperature controller fails, a heating surface temperature of the PTC heating plate will not exceed a set constant temperature.
