Electric Fires

Electric fires are a popular choice for a reason. Not only are they practical, with easy installation and minimal maintenance, but they look great too. We have a fantastic range of options for you to browse here at StovesAreUs.

Freestanding

Freestanding electric fires are portable units that can be plugged in anywhere in the home. This makes them a convenient option for renters as they don’t require installation, plus they can easily be taken with you when you move. They are also often the most affordable electric option.

Built-in

As the name suggests, built-in electric fires (also known as inset fires) are built into the wall or fireplace for a sleek, flush look. They are a good space-efficient choice for homeowners low on floor space and tend to lend themselves well to minimalist and modern interiors.

Media wall fireplaces

Media wall fireplaces are designed specifically to blend seamlessly into a media wall setup. They tend to sit below wall-mounted TVs, creating a focal point in the room. Like built-in varieties, media walls best lend themselves to modern interiors.

Flame-effect

Flame-effect electric fires (also known as smoke-effect fires) utilise water vapour to produce a mist that looks like real smoke. These are ideal for those looking for the most realistic flame possible, without the hassle of a real fire. They can also be used without heating, so you can enjoy the beauty of the flames year-round.

Wall-mounted

A wall-mounted electric fire is mounted (but not set into) the wall, maximising floor space. They are very simple to install and can be installed at a range of different heights, making them a customisable choice.

Hearth-mounted

Hearth-mounted electric fires are, as the name suggests, designed to sit on the hearth. They tend to have a more classic look than other electric options, making them a great choice for those with traditional interiors who want the convenience of electric.

Frequently Asked Questions

What are the benefits of electric fires over other types of fires?

One of the main benefits of going electric is how energy-efficient it is in comparison to other forms of heating, as almost 100% of the electricity is converted into heat. They are also very low maintenance, plus a safe option for families with pets and little ones, as they don’t have open flames.

How much heat do electric fires produce?

Most electric heaters produce from 1kW to 2kW of heat, which is enough for most small to medium rooms. The heating element or fan blows hot air into the room, which works in tandem with the realistic flame effect of the fire.

Do electric fires need a chimney?

No, electric fires do not create any emissions and therefore do not require a chimney or any other ventilation like gas fires and log burning stoves do. You are still able to install an electric fire within a fireplace as long as there is a nearby electrical supply. This means you can install them in almost any room of the home, from the living room to the bedroom.
