Are electric fireplaces good for the environment?

Electric fireplaces reduce your carbon footprint. Wood fireplaces are bad for the environment because they require trees to be destroyed and release a large amount of carbon dioxide that contributes to the greenhouse effect. Indoor electric fireplaces are better for the environment because there are no emissions or fossil fuels involved.

How much does it cost to run an electric fireplace?

At just pennies a day, modern electric fireplaces are much cheaper than all other forms of heating. For comparison, electric wall fireplaces cost approximately 70% less to operate than a gas fireplace. Electric fireplaces can also be used as part of a supplemental zone heating strategy. Your built in electric fireplace insert can heat the room you’re currently using as opposed to raising your home’s central thermostat to heat every room. This helps decrease your monthly heating bill by at least 20-40%.
