Are electric fireplaces efficient?

Electric fireplaces keep the heat where you need it. Traditional heating sources warm the entire house regardless of the room usage. Built in electric fireplace inserts allow you to zone heat by warming the room(s) you are using without having to turn up the central thermostat. This significantly reduces energy waste. Additionally, indoor electric fireplaces heat a room more efficiently than wood-burning fireplaces. This is because much of the heat produced in a wood-burning fireplace is lost through the chimney whereas indoor electric fireplaces are vent-free keeping the heat in the room.

How do electric fireplaces work?

Rather than relying on the combustion of wood or gas, heat is generated by running electricity through a heating element. Then, the heating coil and fan transfers warmth directly to the room. Unlike traditional fireplaces, the warmth stays in the room and is not lost through a chimney for maximum efficiency. The heating elements sit behind a cool to the touch glass screen allowing for safe operation around children and pets. To produce the dynamic feel of real flames, light from a low energy LED bulb bounces off of a rotisserie-style silver refractor with three-dimensional patterns that create the illusion of a flickering flame. Realistic electric fireplaces offer all the enjoyment of traditional fireplaces without the hassle. They don’t need a fuel source and they don’t require any of the cleanup or maintenance involved in utilizing wood, coal, or fuel.

What maintenance is required for electric fireplaces?

There is very little maintenance involved with your electric fireplace. We recommend dusting your electric fireplace regularly to avoid build-up. You may also use a simple glass cleaner on your screen to maintain the polished look.
