Installation
A freestanding electric fireplace is a great addition to any living space. They are easy to fit and can be installed by anyone with basic DIY skills. They are also more practical than gas or solid fuel fireplaces since they don't require an chimney and are safe to use. Electric fires generate heat by heating a metal element which warms the air around them.
You will find instructions for the majority of electric fires. Follow them to ensure that the appliance is properly installed. You can consult a qualified electrician should you have any questions or concerns about the installation.
There are many ways to install an electric freestanding fire suite. You can put it on a wall with a bracket. This is a fairly straightforward job, and you can often find a template inside the box that outlines the locations where you must drill holes and then insert raw plugs. Alternately, you can place the fire on an open shelf. Make sure the fireplace is placed on a suitable base and is not in contact with any combustible material.
A flat-wall electric fire suite with an integrated surround is a different option. These surrounds are available in both traditional and contemporary designs. They are designed to be flush against the wall. Certain surrounds have additional features, such as log storage or places to display decor which can improve a room's look.
Some electric fireplaces have an installation kit for recessed installations which allows them to be placed in the wall cavity. This is a more complicated project, and it requires expertise from a professional. Consider consulting a professional before installing a recessed fireplace to prevent costly injuries or damage.
After your new electric fire suite is set up you will be able to feel the warmth and comfort instantly. The flames of the fireplace are visible on the front of the unit, and they create a warm and cozy ambience in your home. In addition, they will assist in increasing the value of your home and make it more appealing to potential buyers.
Safety
An electric fireplace is a fantastic way to warm up your home without the risk of carbon monoxide poisoning and other hazardous gases. As with any other heating system in your home it is essential to adhere to certain safety rules and regulations to prevent fires or other incidents. These include keeping the fireplace away from burning materials, making sure that pets and children aren't too close to the flames, and maintaining an appropriate distance between the fireplace and the walls of your home.
If you are planning on installing an electric fire suite in your home, it is important to read the instructions of the manufacturer and follow them closely. These guidelines will ensure that your fireplace is properly installed and operating and will assist you to avoid any dangers that could arise. It is also important to have a fire extinguisher nearby in case of emergency.
It is recommended that you examine your electric fireplace frequently for signs of wear and tears to extend its lifespan. This will let you repair any problems before they become major problems and will avoid the need for costly repairs. It's also a good idea to clean your fireplace regularly with a damp, clean cloth to get rid of any dirt or dust.
It is essential to never leave an electric fireplace unattended. This is particularly important in the case of pets or children in the home. An unattended fireplace could be extremely dangerous, and even a small fire can cause burns. You should also install an alarm for fire and CO2 in your home. Freestanding electric fireplace suites can detect dangerous gases that are dangerous if breathed.
You should also make sure that you do not use extension cords with your electric fire suite. They can create a fire hazard, as they're not made to withstand the intense heat generated by an electric fire suite. It's best to use an electric power strip specifically designed for your electric fireplace, as it will provide you with a reliable way to control your fireplace and other electronic components.
Heat output
The heat output of an electric fire suite that is freestanding is a crucial factor to consider when buying one, as this will determine how much heat it generates. The greater the kW output, more heat your fireplace will generate. This is typically enough to heat a medium sized living room.
The most powerful electric fireplaces can produce 2kW of heat, which would be sufficient for a small to medium-sized living area. This makes them an ideal heating option for those who are seeking a wood-burning stove aesthetic but don't want the hassle of cleaning up the ash and constructing a chimney.
There are models that have a higher flame image, in addition to the standard kW output. This makes them more appealing to the eye. These models are more likely to use LED technology which can produce a realistic flame effect. Some of these models include a programmable seven-day timer, so you can manage your fire from afar.
Certain electric fire sets have built-in surrounds, either in a contemporary or traditional style. This creates a focal point for your living space and frames the fire. Freestanding electric fireplace suites come with media units, log stores and places to display decor, so you can customise your electric fire suite to suit your interior design.
There are numerous elegant electric fireplace suites that can be chosen to give you a modern look. Elgin & Hall Pryzm Varido electric fireplace suites come in stunning black finish. Flamerite Jaeger 10020 is designed to fit flush against an even surface.
Another alternative is an infrared electrical fire suite, which makes use of infrared lights to warm the objects and surfaces of your home. This type of heating is more efficient than fan-type heaters which only warm the air. It is important to remember that infrared heat can only be used on surfaces and objects that are directly in the line of the beams.
If you're looking for an electric fire suite that has a higher wattage there are options that can achieve 3kW of heat output. This is enough energy to warm up the entire living area. Most of the electric fireplace suites that we offer have heat outputs between 1kW and 2kW, which is enough for most living room.
Style
Designed to sit flat against the wall a freestanding electric fire suite is an ideal choice for homes that do not have a chimney breast. These suites come in both modern and traditional styles and are an impressive focal point in any room. These suites come with a variety of built-in features, including log storage areas and areas to display décor. They also add to the appearance.
As opposed to wood and gas-burning stoves, these models produce no harmful smoke or gases. They generate heat by using an air-flow device that draws in cold air and then passes it over hot metal coils to warm it. The heated air is then blown out through the back. These suites are great for families with children or for those who have breathing problems such as asthma.
The electric fire suites offer another advantage over gas fireplaces, in that they do not require chimneys. They are also simple to install and do not require any professional fitting. Flamerite Lola LED Electric Fireplace Suite is an excellent example that can be put on any flat wall of your home. It also has a handy base storage compartment to store dried logs (not included) as shown in the photo and clean crisps lines that will make it a stunning, modern centerpiece for any living space.
The Elgin & Hall Farnham Deluxe fireplace suite is another fantastic example of this. It features a fashionable Chollerton electric fire inset and comes in different finishes. Fires2U offers a wide range of electric suites that can be placed flat against the wall including the Flamerite Aubade and Tennyson models. These are easy to install and come with downlights in the surround.
