A Brief History History Of Electric Fireplace Suites

Electric Fireplace Suites

Modern electric fire sets come as a complete package including a hearth, surround and back panel. They are designed to create a focal point in your home with the least effort.

They are suitable for homes that have chimneys or without and provide warmth of 1.5-2kWs. They are a popular option for those looking for an elegant fireplace.

Easy to Install

If you've always wanted a fireplace that's real but aren't able to hire a builder or don't have a chimney, you can still add a beautiful, functional feature into your living space with an electric fire suite. They're a simple and affordable way to add warmth to your home. They are also simple to set up and maintain.

An electric fireplace suite incorporates complete surrounds with an integrated fire and back panel to create an elegant modern feature for your home. They're available in both modern and traditional designs which makes them a perfect choice for a wide range of styles for interiors. Fires2U provides a variety of sizes, colors and finishes, so you'll be able to find the perfect match for your space.

The majority of models are available in a standard version that fits into an opening that measures 22" high by 16" wide, or a premium model that has a wider frame for an impressive appearance. You'll need to choose the BTU output that is appropriate for your room size and heating requirements. We recommend selecting a model that can provide between 4500 and 5200 BTUs for the most efficient heating power.

A luxury suite of fireplaces will often have a stunning mantel to display décor items such as candles and plants or store them. Some models come with downlights that create a dramatic lighting effect. A fireplace that is flat to the wall is a great option when you want a simple design. They can be mounted on the wall just like the flat-screen TV or picture and are usually supplied with mounting brackets that help make the task easier.

Consider the Flamerite Aubade and Tennyson LED Flat to Wall Electric Fireplace Suite for an elegant and contemporary addition to your home. It is a sleek modern fireplace that has a viewing 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 versions 5 and up). You can control the heat, flame intensity and height, and select from a variety of pre-set or user-programmable visual flame effects, including the stunning blue/purple colour changing function.

Energy-Efficient

It's now more important than ever to consider the way you can heat your home. With rising costs for energy and concern about the environment it is essential that we are aware of our choices. Electric fire suites are an excellent solution that provides instant heating with a minimal energy input. They can be put in easily, used indoors or outdoors* and come with a variety of features.

The type of fire you select needs careful assessment. Solid and gas fuel fires are great for homes with a chimney and balanced flue models are suitable for those who don't have one. Electric fireplaces can be connected to both and offer varying effects of flame and heat output options, depending on your needs.

When you are choosing an  electric fireplace suite , search for an Btu (British Thermal Unit) count to determine how much heat it will generate. A higher Btu number indicates that your suite will be able to warm your room more quickly and effectively. Some models feature special energy-efficient features, such as thermostats that allow you to regulate and monitor heating levels.

You can also apply a simple formula to calculate how the suite will cost to be running on a daily basis. Calculate the cost of running the suite by multiplying pence per Kilowatt charged by your energy company with the number of hours that you plan to use the suite each day.

To ensure your electric fire suite's efficiency, be sure to keep the fireplace in a well-ventilated area. This will allow the cold air to escape, and the hot air to circulate more easily. It is also important to be aware of any particular circumstances that could affect your heater, such as whether it is located in a drafty location or has windows and doors that open to outside temperatures.

It is important to remember that there are numerous styles and finishes available when choosing an electric fireplace suite. Whether you are looking for an electric fire suite that is modern like the Be Modern Flare Beadnell in Ice White, or a more traditional design like the Elgin & Hall Pryzm Vardo with its stunning Black Nickel finish, there is a model to suit your home.

Aesthetically pleasing

Modern electric fireplace suites can provide your living space by creating a warm and welcoming ambiance without the lengthy and costly installation process that is associated with wood-burning or gas-burning fires. A fireplace suite is made up of the same elements as an inset fireplace such as a hearth, surround and back panel. Instead of gas or wood it is powered by electricity. Thanks to recent technological advancements, these  electric fireplace suites  have a highly realistic flame effect, which looks like traditional log or pebble-style fires.

As a whole fireplace suites are a great option because they match perfectly to create a seamless design. You can pick from a variety of styles and finishes to complement your interior design. Certain electric fireplaces come with an additional mantelpiece to store and display of home decor and candles and others feature an elegant design that is simple to fit into any space.

The right fireplace suite can transform your living space. Gas-powered fireplaces are ideal for homes with chimneys. Balanced flue models however, allow you to include a heating element, whether or not your home has a flue.

The heat produced by these models isn't as intense as that of a real log fireplace however, it produces enough warmth to keep your home warm. If you want to reduce your energy bills, choose an electric fireplace that has a low wattage.

You can calculate the amount of energy a fireplace will consume by multiplying the wattage of the fireplace by the current prices for electricity and how many hours you anticipate using the fireplace per day. You can then compare this figure with your energy provider's tariff in kWh to determine the amount you can save.

The addition of decorative elements around your electric fireplace suite can enhance the ambience of your living space to a new level. For instance, putting a large mirror above your fireplace could reflect light and visually expand your space, whilst adding a framed piece of art can make a focal point of your living room's decor.

No Smoke or Creosote Emissions

Electric suites are not able to produce harmful gases, such as carbon monoxide. These fireplaces generate heat using a fan that draws cool air in and then blows out the heated air. Your room will be warm in no time. This is an excellent feature for those suffering from asthma or allergies who struggle to breathe in real flames.

Many electric suites come with smart compatibility and remote controls. This means that they can be controlled by a smartphone, tablet, or voice activated system, like Amazon Alexa or Google Assistant. This is particularly helpful for busy families and those who has lots on their agenda.

A stunning electric fire feature will transform your living space and improve the value of any home. You can use them all through the winter because they're low maintenance and safe. For the perfect finish, you can mount a TV directly above your electric fireplace and create an unique focal point in your living space.

Electric fireplace suites are available in drywall, fashionable Melamine panels, or even melamine sheets. They can be erected to create a functional and beautiful feature wall for your home. You can design a unique style, pick from a variety of color options, and include additional features, such as framed photos or your favorite decor items.
