Why Choose a Wall Mounted Electric Fire?

Wall-mounted electric fireplaces are stylish and a cost-effective alternative for heating. They are available in a variety of designs and finishes that are a perfect match for any space.

Some models have LED lighting effects as well as multiple options for flame display. Some models have privacy glass that can be set from transparent to opaque.

Aesthetics

A wall-mounted fireplace is a great way to add character and style to your home without the need to maintain the fire. A wide selection of models is available on the market, and many have modern and contemporary designs that can be adapted to any interior style.

Most wall mounted electric fireplaces produce heat, usually by using the use of a space heater which blows air through the heating element. However, there are some that don't produce any heat at all and simply provide visual flame effects. This is better for rooms that have combustible materials such as curtains or carpets.

While certain models can be mounted directly onto the wall, others will need to be inserted to a specially designed fireplace insert. It will either require cutting a hole into the wall and putting up a mantel or mounting the unit in an existing fireplace insert. This is typically more straightforward to install and requires less expertise.

Make sure you install any electric fire that has ample space and clearance around it, especially if you intend to place the television above it. You'll also want to ensure that the mounting location is free of any combustible material and that it is safe for pets or children to enter.

Energy efficiency

Wall-mounted electric fires are a modern alternative to traditional gas fires, and feature a sleek design that is perfect for homes with a limited floor space. They can produce heat up to 1500 Watts and are a great complement to your central heating or can be employed on their own in rooms of up to 400 square feet.

One of the greatest benefits of electric fires is that they are highly energy efficient, which saves you money on your electric bills. If you choose to use an electric fire, you just have to pay for the kilowatts that it uses. You can determine how much your electricity provider charges per kilowatt by looking at your electricity bill or contacting your supplier directly. To calculate the cost of running an electrical fire every day, simply multiply the number kilowatts by the cost per Kilowatt by the electricity provider you use.

Most electric fires will use less than 1500 watts per hour, which is equivalent to 7675 BTU/h of heating. If you leave it on for 10 hours, you'll pay $2.35 per day for electricity (assuming that the heater is on). If you turn off the flame and only use it to create the flame effect, it will only cost you a few dollars each day to run. We recommend using an electric fireplace with thermostats so that it will automatically switch off and on based on the temperature of the room.
