How To Save Money On Electric Fireplace Suites
Electric Fireplace Suites
Modern electric fire suites are available as a complete unit that includes an open hearth and surround, and an additional back panel. They are designed to create a focal point in your space with minimal effort.
They are suitable for homes that have chimneys or no chimneys and can provide 1.5-2kWs of heat. This makes them a very popular choice for those looking for a chic fireplace solution.
Easy to Install
If you've always dreamed of having an actual fireplace but don't have the money to pay a builder, or don't have a chimney you can still add an elegant, functional feature into your home by installing an electric fire suite. These are a cost-effective and easy method to add warmth and style, plus they're easy to set up and maintain.
An electric fireplace suite incorporates a full surround with an integrated fire and back panel to create a stylish modern feature for your home. Electric fireplaces come in both traditional and contemporary styles, and can be used in various interior styles. The selection available at Fires2U includes a range of colours, finishes and sizes, so you're bound to find the perfect match for your room.
The majority of models are available in a standard version that can be fitted into an opening measuring 22" high by 16" wide or a deluxe model that has a larger frame to give it an imposing appearance. You'll need to select the BTU output suitable for the space and heating requirements. For optimal heating power, we suggest selecting a model that has between 4500 to 5,200 BTUs.
A luxury suite of fireplaces will often come with a beautiful mantel to display décor objects like candles and plants, or even store them. Some models include downlights that can create a dramatic lighting effect. If you're looking for an uncluttered design, a flat to wall fireplace is a good choice. They can be hung on the wall like a flat-screen television or picture. They usually have mounting brackets that simplify the task.
Think about the Flamerite Aubade and Tennyson LED Flat to Wall Electric Fireplace Suite for a stylish, contemporary addition to your home. It features a stylish modern fireplace with a viewable opening of 39" wide and 13 1/2" high, and it's fully compatible with smart home devices using the Fire eControl app (requires iOS or an Android device running version 5 or greater). You can adjust the heat intensity, brightness, and the height of the flame. You can also pick from a set of user-programmable and pre-set flame effects.
Energy-Efficient
With rising energy costs and worries about our impact on the environment, it's never been more important to be conscious of how we warm our homes. Electric fires provide instant heating and require only minimum energy consumption. These suites are simple to install, can be used outdoors or indoors* and come with a broad variety of features.
The type of fire you select needs careful consideration. Solid and gas-fueled fires are suitable for homes with a chimney, while balanced flue models are suitable for those who do not have one. Electric fireplaces are available for both and can be customized to meet your specific needs.
When you are choosing an electric fireplace suite, search for a Btu (British Thermal Unit) count to determine the amount of heat it can generate. A higher Btu number indicates that your unit will be able to warm your room faster and efficiently. Some models also have specific energy efficiency features such as thermostats that help you regulate and monitor the heating levels.
You can also use the simple formula below to estimate the cost of running your suite on a daily base. To do this, simply determine the amount your energy provider charges for electricity in pence per Kilowatt, and multiply that by the number of hours you're expecting to be using the suite on an everyday basis.
Keep your electric fireplace in a room that is well ventilated to ensure its efficiency. This will allow for the hot air and cold air to circulate more efficiently. Also, you should be aware of any specific conditions that could affect your heater. For example if it is located in a drafty area or when the windows and doors are open to the outside temperature.
When selecting an electric fire suite, it's worth bearing in mind that you will be able to choose from a variety of designs and finishes. You can choose a modern electric fire suite like the Be Modern Flare Beadnell in Ice White, or a more traditional style like the Elgin and Hall Pryzm Vardo in stunning Black Nickel finish, there will be a perfect design to fit your home.
Aesthetically pleasing
Modern electric fireplace suites can elevate your living space to an inviting and warm atmosphere without the lengthy and costly installation process that comes with gas or wood-burning fires. A fireplace suite consists of all the same elements as an inset fireplace, such as a hearth, surround, and back panel. However, instead of gas or wood the fireplace uses electricity. These electric fireplace suites look like traditional pebble or log fires thanks to recent technological advances.
As a whole, fireplace suites have the advantage of blending perfectly together to create a seamless design. You can pick from a range of finishes and styles to complement 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 minimalist and simple to incorporate into a space.
A fireplace that is the right fit can completely transform your living space. Fireplaces that are powered by gas are ideal for homes with a chimney. Balanced flue models, however, permit you to include a heating element, whether or not your house has an air flue.
These models don't produce the same amount of warmth as a real fire, but they provide enough warmth to keep your family and you warm. If you're looking to cut down on your energy bills, choose an electric fireplace that has a low wattage.
You can determine the amount of energy a fireplace suite will use by multiplying its wattage by the price of electricity at the moment and how many hours you expect to use it each day. You can then compare this figure with your energy provider's tariff in kWh to figure out how much money you will save.
Include decorative elements in your electric fireplace to increase the ambiance of your living space. Place a large mirror over your fireplace to reflect light and visually expand your space. A frame of art can serve as a focal point for your living room's decor.
No Creosote or Smoke Emissions
While a traditional wood burning fireplace emits harmful gases like carbon monoxide, a modern electric suite does not. These fireplaces produce heat by using a fan that draws cool air in and then blows out the heated air. Your home will be warm in a short time. This is an excellent option for people suffering from asthma or allergies who have trouble to breathe around real fires.
Many electronic suites have remote controls and smart compatibility. This means 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 a lot of work on their agenda.
A beautiful electric fireplace suite will instantly transform your living space and is a practical addition to any home. You can enjoy them throughout the winter months since they are low maintenance and secure. To add the perfect finishing touch you can put a TV directly over your electric fireplace and create an unique focal point in your living room.
Electric fireplace suites can be put in the drywall, or even melamine panels for a stunning and functional feature wall in your home. You can design a custom design and choose from a range of color options. You can also add extra features such as framed pictures or other decor items you love. At Organized Interiors, we have an extensive selection of electric fireplace suites, so you can find the perfect one to suit your style and budget.
We offer models from well-known brands like Dimplex or Flamerite. The patented "glow-log" technology of Flamerite produces a glowing fire bed that flickers and glows like a real flame. The integrated LED lighting can enhance the effect. We also have the modern Elgin & Hall Farnham Deluxe which comes with a fashionable Chollerton Electric Fire available in Black Nickel or Chrome.
Most importantly, electric fireplaces are child-safe and don't release any harmful fumes or smoke. This makes them an ideal option for homes with small children or pets. They are also great to use as a supplementary heating source, since they are able to be used without the necessity for ventilation. This is known as zone heating, and can reduce your energy usage for your home by 20-40%.
