Are You Getting The Most Out From Your Electric Fireplace Suites?

Electric Fireplace Suites

Modern electric fire suites come as a complete package comprising a hearth, surround and back panel. They are designed to create a focal point in your room with minimum effort.

They are suitable for homes that have chimneys or no chimneys and can provide 1.5-2kWs of heat. This makes them a popular option for those seeking an elegant fireplace option.

Easy to Install

If you've always dreamed of having an actual fireplace but don't have the money to hire a builder or don't have a chimney, you can still incorporate a beautiful, functional feature into your home by installing an electric fireplace suite. These are a cost-effective and practical way to add warmth and style, plus they're easy to install and maintain.

A fireplace suite is made up of a surround, incorporated fire, and a reversible panel which creates a modern and elegant design for your home. These electric fireplaces are available in both modern and traditional designs, which means they can be used in a variety of interior styles. Fires2U offers a wide range of sizes, colours and finishes, so you'll be able to find the perfect match for your room.

The majority of models are available in a standard model that can fit into an opening measuring 22" high by 16" wide, or a premium model that has a larger frame to give it an imposing appearance. Based on the size of your room and heating requirements you'll also have to choose a suitable BTU output. For maximum heating power, we recommend choosing a model with between 4500 and 5,200 BTUs.

A luxurious fireplace suite typically includes a stunning mantel that can be used to store things, or for displaying decor items like candles and plants. Some models also have downlights that can provide an even more dramatic lighting effects in your home. If you're looking for a more minimalist style, a flat-to wall fireplace is a good choice. These can be hung on the wall in the same way as an LCD or picture and usually come with mounting brackets that make the job even easier.

For a stylish, modern addition to your living area look into the Flamerite Aubade or Tennyson LED flat-to-wall electric fireplace suite. It is a sleek modern, contemporary fireplace with an area of 39" wide by 13 1/2" high. It's compatible with smart home devices using the Fire eControl App (requires iOS and Android devices running versions 5 and up). You can regulate the flame's heat, brightness and height. You can also choose from a selection of pre-programmed or user-programmable flame effects that include the stunning blue/purple colour changing function.

Energy-Efficient

It's more important than ever to think about how you heat your home. With rising costs for energy and environmental concerns it is crucial to be aware of the options available to us. Electric fire suites are an excellent solution that provide instant heat with minimal energy input. These suites can be installed easily, used outdoors or indoors, and come with a range of features.

The kind of fire you choose also requires careful consideration. Solid and gas-fueled fires are suitable for homes with a chimney, while balanced flue models are ideal for those who do not have one. Electric fireplaces are available for both and can be adapted to suit your requirements.

When selecting your electric fireplace suite, search for a Btu (British Thermal Unit) count to determine how much heat it will produce. A higher Btu count signifies that the suite will be able to heat the room faster and more effectively. Certain models also come with special energy efficiency technologies such as thermostats that help you control and adjust the heating levels.

You can also use the formula below to determine the cost of operating your suite on a daily basis. Calculate the cost of running the suite by multiplying the pence per kilowatt charged by your energy provider with the number of hours you plan to use the suite every day.

To ensure your electric fireplace suite's efficiency, make sure to keep the fireplace in a well-ventilated area. This will allow hot air and cold air to circulate more efficiently. Be aware of any special circumstances that could affect your heater, such as whether it is situated in a drafty area or has windows and doors that open to outside temperatures.

When you are choosing an electric fireplace suite, it's important to remember that you'll be able to choose from a range of designs and finishes. There's a design for any home, whether you want a modern electric fireplace, like the Be Modern Flare Beadnell, in Ice White or a more classic design, like the Elgin & Hall Pryzm Vardo, in stunning Black Nickel.

Aesthetically pleasing

Modern electric fireplace suites can provide your living space by creating an inviting and warm atmosphere without the lengthy and costly installation process associated with wood-burning or gas-burning fireplaces. A fireplace suite is comprised of all the same elements as an inset fireplace such as a hearth, surround, and back panel. However, instead of using wood or gas, it uses electricity. The electric fireplace suites appear like traditional log or pebble fireplaces thanks to recent technological advances.

As a complete set fireplace suites have the advantage of blending perfectly together to create a seamless look. You can also select from a variety of styles and finishes to complement the aesthetic of your interior design. Some electric fireplaces come with a mantelpiece that can be used to store or display candles and other home decor. Others are simple and easy to integrate into the space.

A fireplace that is the right fit can transform your living space. Fireplaces that are powered by gas are ideal for homes with chimneys. Balanced flue models, however, allow you to add a heating element whether or not your home has a flue.

They don't generate as much heat as a traditional fire, but they provide enough warmth to keep your family and you warm. If you want to reduce your energy bills, choose an electric fire set-up that has a low wattage.

Multiply the wattage of a fireplace suite by the current price of electricity and how many hours per day you intend to use it. You can then compare this to your energy provider's tariff in kWh to determine how much money you will save.

Include decorative elements to your electric fireplace set-up to add a touch of elegance to your living space. Install a large mirror above your fireplace to reflect light and visually expand your space. A frame of art can serve as a focal point of your living room decor.

No Creosote or Smoke Emissions

Electric suites do not produce toxic gases such as carbon monoxide. They produce heat using a fan process that draws cool air inside the unit and then blows out the heated air, making your room warm in a flash. This feature is great for people who have asthma or allergies and have trouble to breathe near fires.

A lot of electronic suites are equipped with smart compatibility and remote controls. This means that they can be controlled using tablets, smartphones or a voice-activated system, such as Amazon Alexa or Google Assistant. This is particularly useful for busy families and anyone who has a lot of work on their to do.

A stunning electric fireplace will instantly transform your living space and is a practical addition to any home.  Freestanding ready assembled electric fire suites  are secure, low maintenance and simple to set up, so you can enjoy them all through winter. For the perfect finish you can place an LCD TV right above your electric fireplace suite and create the perfect focal point for your living room.
