What Are Fire Suites?
Fire suites are complete fireplaces that include hearths as well as surrounds. They can be a stunning focal point in your living space and add to the appeal of a gas or electric fireplace.
Aluminized suits reflect radiant heat, while insulating against high ambient temperatures, and are often used in welding operations or steel mills. Knowing the degree of danger your workers could be exposed to aids in deciding on the most suitable protective suit for the job.
Gas
Gas fire suites are modern and sleek take on fireplace designs. They provide the benefits of a fire effect as well as a heat output. They can be put in properties with or without chimneys. They also work for homes with precast flues. They can be affixed to the wall or integrated into a hearth.
These kinds of fires work with a natural gas supply which is connected to your central heating system or an external propane tank. To ensure that your gas installation is secure you should consult a certified engineer.
The Waney Ashford Solid Oak Gas Fire Suite is a blend of traditional style and rustic charm. It includes the full Waney Ashford Solid Oak Fireplace and the traditional Pureglow Blenheim Gas Fire. This suite will add warmth and the character of your home. The suite can be erected to your property with or without chimneys and is suitable for properties with pre-cast flues that are constructed using clay or concrete blocks that are incorporated into your walls.
If you have an unflattering wall or a gap in the wall for a gas fire could be the ideal solution. These types of gas fires can be affixed to the wall and work with either natural or LPG. They typically include radiant bars and are good for producing plenty of heat. They are often with large controls that are easy to use for those who are disabled in mobility.
Another type of gas fire is a balanced flue, that can be fitted to homes that have chimneys. They are powered by natural gas, which is transported through an extensive network of seven reception points on the coast, also known as "beach terminals". From there, the gas travels to your home, where it is used for heating and any leftovers are emitted directly to the outside.
The final type of gas fire is vented or non-vented. Vented gas fires can be incorporated into your existing chimney system or a factory-built steel chimney, with exhaust sent to the outside through an elongated liner or a one pipe within the chimney breast. Non-vented fires, however, make use of a hotbox to create the appearance of a flame. The heat is transferred through your room's air and out of the chimney breast.
Electricity
Electric fire suites are ideal for those who desire the look of a fireplace but don't want to go through the hassle of chimneys, flues or any other structural work. They can be put in place easily by putting them in a flush position against a wall and plugging into a power socket. They are available in a broad selection of styles ranging from modern to traditional and are extremely adaptable.
Electric fire suites, unlike gas fires emit no heat. Instead, they use the technology called "flame effects" to give the appearance of real flames and smoke. These are achieved using LED lights and mirrors to produce a realistic glow. Some of the advanced models make use of water vapor and color-changing lighting to create holographic flickering fires. This is a very popular option and looks quite realistic.

When choosing an electric fire, you must take into consideration the type of fireplace you prefer. Some of our customers opt to combine their fire suite with an edging and hearth, while others choose a simple mantelpiece or an open-fronted electric fire. The type of electric fire you choose will also have an impact on the overall look and feel of your living space.

Solid Fuel
A solid fuel fireplace suite brings that cosy traditional look back to the center of your home. The flickering flames that come from real wood logs or coal create a warm glow which is calming. This type of fireplace is popular especially during winter months, when a genuine flame can reduce the cost of energy.
While open fires and stoves with decorative designs are popular however, solid fuel furnaces are ideal for larger rooms as they can provide complete central heating and hot water. This system uses wood burners pellet heater or a coal fired stove to warm air. The heated air is then circulated throughout the home by a heating system and then blown through the ducting of the room through vents.
A solid fuel fire needs a grate, ash pan and chimney to exhaust gases and smoke. The chimney should be lined with a suitable product and must meet the relevant regulations. The fire suite should be installed by a licensed technician, and regularly checked for safety and performance. Creosote accumulation in the chimney can be an important fire hazard in solid fuel appliances. Maintenance and proper care are therefore essential.
This is why fireplaces made of solid fuel tend to cost more to run than gas fires. There are a variety of designs and fuel options to match any decor.
Many customers would like a multi-combination fire suite that can be used with a solid fuel or gas fire. However, this is not currently feasible since the two types of fires operate in very different ways.
To burn safely it is essential to choose seasoned and dried logs. This will help the fuel burn more efficiently as less moisture is emitted when burning off. It is also important to avoid burning wet or green logs as these could cause a build-up of creosote, which can cause chimney fires. A seasoned log also produces more heat than a new log, and is worth the extra cost.
