Electric fireplaces
An electric fireplace is an electric heater that mimics tile or fireplace stoves as well as a real fireplace, which is why it is also called a decorative fireplace. Electric effects provide the appearance of blazing flames, which do not produce smoke and therefore do not require a chimney.
An electric fireplace can have two elements: the flame and the heating element. These two are not related to each other. The electric insert creates the flame effect and the electric heating element is responsible for generating heat.
The electric insert mimics the flame look through a combination of water vapor, LED light, and decorative wood. The heating element works much like a stovetop, heating electricity through a metallic conductor.
An ultrasonic nebulizer vaporizes water from a container. Fans swirl the resulting vapor outward, heating it over halogen bulbs or xenon lamps.
The artificial fire is created by the rising water vapour in combination with coloured lighting, which creates a 3D image with smoke effect and flames.
First of all, you don't need a chimney shaft, a power socket is enough. In addition, the purchase costs are usually much lower than the subsequent installation of a fireplace shaft. In addition, electric fireplaces are sometimes even equipped with thermostats and can be operated with a remote control from the sofa.
Other advantages:
- no smoke, soot or dust
- no open fire - safe fire experience for children and animals
- no need to install a smoke detector
- simple installation
You do not need an extra connection. A standard socket is sufficient.
The purchase cost of an electric fireplace is between 40 and 4,000 GBP. The consumption and operating costs differ depending on whether you buy a model with or without heating.
As a rule, you can plan on consumption costs of around 85 GBP and running costs of around 90 GBP per year for a device with heating for 200 hours. A device without heating costs you comparatively almost nothing for the same number of hours - about 1.25 GBP in consumption costs and 9.50 GBP in operating costs per year.
