Aesthetics

The majority of wall-mounted electric fire places produce heat. This is usually done through an area heating system that blows hot air through a heating element. However, there are some that don’t produce any heat at all, and simply provide visual flame effects. The latter may be more suitable for rooms where the fireplace is likely to be situated close to combustible materials, like curtains and carpets.

While some models can be put directly on the wall, others will need to be fitted to a specially designed fireplace insert. This will require either cutting a hole into the wall and installing the mantel from scratch, or it may be possible to mount the unit in a pre-existing fireplace insert. This is more straightforward to install and requires less knowledge.

It’s important to remember that any type of electric fire must be placed with plenty of space and clearance around it, especially in the event that you plan to install a TV above it. You should ensure that the mounting area is free of any combustible material and that children or pets are able to access it safely.
