Are The Advances In Technology Making Electric Fireplace Suites Better Or Worse?

Electric Fireplace Suites

Modern electric fire suites are available as a complete package with the hearth and surround as well as an additional back panel. They are designed to create a striking focal point for your space with little effort.

They are suitable for homes with or those without chimneys and can provide heating of 1.5-2kWs. This makes them a preferred choice for those who are looking for a stylish fireplace solution.

Easy to Install

If you've always dreamed of having an actual fireplace but aren't able to pay a builder, or do not have a chimney, you can still create an attractive, functional feature into your home with an electric fireplace suite. These are a cost-effective and practical way to add warmth and style as well as being easy to set up and maintain.

An electric fireplace suite combines the full surround with an integrated fire and back panel to create a chic modern feature for your home. They're available in modern and traditional designs and are a great choice for a wide range of styles for interiors. The selection available at Fires2U offers a variety of finishes, colors and sizes, so you're sure to find the best match for your space.

Most models come in either an ordinary size that will fit in an opening of 22" high x 16" wide, or a deluxe version that provides a larger frame for a more impressive design. You'll need to select the BTU output appropriate for your room size and heating needs. To get the most efficient heating power, we recommend selecting a model that has between 4500 to 5,200 BTUs.

A luxurious fireplace suite will often include an attractive mantel that can be used for storage purposes or to display decorative items such as candles and plants. Certain models have downlights that can create a dramatic lighting effect. A flat-to-wall fireplace is a great choice if you prefer a minimalist style. These can be hung on the wall just like the flat-screen TV or picture and are usually supplied with mounting brackets that make the job even easier.

Think about the Flamerite Aubade and Tennyson LED Flat to Wall Electric Fireplace Suite for an elegant and contemporary addition to your home. It has a stylish modern fireplace that has an area of 39" wide by 13 1/2" high. It is compatible with smart home devices using the Fire eControl App (requires iOS and Android devices running version 5 and higher). You can control the heat as well as brightness and flame height. You can also choose from a variety of pre-set and user-programmable flame effects.

Energy-Efficient

With rising energy costs and concerns about our impact on the environment, it's never been more crucial to be aware of the way we use our homes to heat them. Electric fires provide instant heat while requiring the least amount of energy. These suites can be installed easily, and used indoors or outdoors* and come with a range of features.

It is also important to consider the kind of fire you'd like to install. Gas and solid fuel fires are great for homes with a chimney and balanced flue models are ideal for those who don't have one. Electric fireplaces can be fitted to both and offer different effects of flame and heat output options, depending on the requirements of your home.

Look for the Btu (British Thermal Units) count when selecting your electric fireplace to determine the amount of heat will be produced. A higher Btu number indicates that your suite will be able warm up your room faster and efficiently. Some models also feature specific energy efficiency features like thermostats that allow you to regulate and monitor the levels of heating.

You can also use the simple formula below to determine the cost of running your suite on a daily basis. To do this, simply find out how much your energy provider charges for electricity in pence per kilowatt, and multiply that by the number of hours you're expecting to use the suite on an everyday basis.

Make sure your electric fireplace is in an area that is well ventilated to ensure its efficiency. This will allow the hot air and cold air to circulate more efficiently. Be aware of any specific conditions that could affect your heater, such as whether it is situated in a cold area or has windows and doors that open to the outside temperature.

When selecting an electric fire suite, it's important to remember that you will be able to select from a variety of styles and finishes. There is a model for every home regardless of whether you're looking for an electric fireplace with a modern design, like the Be Modern Flare Beadnell, in Ice White or a more traditional design, such as the Elgin & Hall Pryzm Vardo which is stunning in Black Nickel.

Aesthetically pleasing



Modern electric fireplace suites will provide your home with a warm, inviting ambience without the cost and lengthy installation required by gas or wood fireplaces. A fireplace suite consists of all the same elements as an inset fireplace such as the hearth, surround and back panel. Instead of burning gas or wood, it uses electricity. These electric fireplace suites look almost identical to traditional log or pebble fires due to the latest technological advancements.

In general fireplace suites are an excellent option since they blend perfectly to create a seamless design. You can choose from a range of finishes and styles to match your interior design. Some electric fireplaces come with an over-the-mantelpiece that can be used to store and display candles and other decor items. Others are minimalist and easy to integrate into an area.

The right fireplace is crucial to achieving the perfect transformation in your living space. Gas-fuelled fireplaces are best for homes that have a chimney. Balanced flue models, however, permit you to add a heating element whether or not your home is equipped with a flue.

The heat produced by these models isn't as intense as the heat of a real log fireplace but it still produces enough warmth to keep your living space warm. If you're looking to keep your energy costs low, think about an electric fire suite with the lowest wattage.

Multiply the wattage of a fireplace suite by the price of electricity currently in use and the number of hours per day you plan to use it. Then, you can compare this to the kWh tariff offered by your energy provider to see how much you'll save on the price of running your fireplace.

By adding decorative elements to your electric fireplace suite can take the ambiance of your living space to a new level. For instance, placing a large mirror above your fireplace can reflect light and visually expand your living space while the frame of a piece of art can create a focal point for your living room decor.

No Creosote or Smoke Emissions

While traditional wood burning fireplaces creates toxic gases like carbon monoxide, an electric suite does not. These fireplaces produce heat by using a fan to draw cool air into it and blows out heated air. Your room will be warm in no time. This is a wonderful option for people suffering from asthma or allergies who have trouble to breathe in the smoke of real fires.

Many electronic suites come with remote controls and smart compatibility. They can be controlled by tablets, smartphones or a voice-activated systems such as Amazon Alexa and Google Assistant. This is particularly useful for busy families and those who has lots on their to do.

A stunning electric fireplace will instantly transform your living space and is a useful addition to any home. They are secure, low maintenance, and easy to install, so you can enjoy them all through winter. To add the perfect finishing touch, you can mount a TV directly over your electric fireplace and create the perfect focal point for your living room.
