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 often do I need to change the bulbs on my electric fireplace?

Your EcoSmart Fire electric fireplace is equipped with low energy LED Lamps that have a life span of up to 20 years.

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.

Are electric fireplaces safe?

Electric fireplaces are the safest fire option available. While the flames may look real they are simply a beautiful illusion of light. In fact, our electric fireplaces are cool to the touch, making them a great choice for busy commercial spaces or families with children or pets.

How large of an area will my electric fireplace heat?

Our indoor electric fireplaces run on 120V and produce up to 5,000 BTUs. That's enough heat to warm approximately 450 square feet without turning up the central thermostat.

Do electric fireplaces give off any fumes or gases?

No, our fireplaces do not emit any fumes, CO2, smoke, emissions or any pollutants.

How much does it cost to maintain an electric fireplace?

Electric fireplaces don’t require regular maintenance like gas or wood-burning fireplaces. There’s no need to purchase logs, fuel, kindling, or schedule a chimney sweep.
