Wall Mount Electric Fireplaces

Wall mounted electric fireplaces add a warm, inviting space to your home without the hassles of ash, chimney cleaning or purchasing stacking, hauling, or storing coal or firewood. They also provide a secure alternative to traditional fireplaces and don't block floor space or cause a hazard to people as they walk through the room.

Size

A wall-mounted electric fireplace is an attractive option if you like the look of a fireplace but don't have enough space for a hearth and chimney. These fireplaces free up the floor space by putting them on a flat surface. They plug into an electrical outlet for all-year-round use. The majority of models have an electronic remote control that allows for simple switching between on and off. Certain models also feature flame displays and decorative embers. These models are available in a variety of sizes and styles.

The majority of electric fireplaces mounted on walls are small. However there are plenty of linear options which stretch across the entire wall. These are great for rooms with low ceilings. They can create a cozy focal feature that doesn't take up the entire space.

Electric fireplaces can also be erected on flat walls, just as a wood fire. These types of units come in a range of frame colors, ranging from black and contemporary stainless steel to glamorous mirror glass. Pick a frame color that matches your furniture or wall. Some models come with flat-screen TVs which makes them a complete entertainment system.

Many people choose this option, mounting their TV above their fireplace. This is a great idea but be aware of the necessary clearance between the TV and electric fireplace. Most clearance guidelines suggest keeping all combustibles at least three feet away from the fireplace.

Some of these units can be recessed into walls to create a custom fit. This type of model may not be as efficient as a straight-front wall hanging fireplace electric mounted but is ideal for a custom-designed installation. You can also find wall-mounted electric fireplaces that are designed to be mounted against the ceiling. They are perfect for commercial spaces such as hotel lobbies or restaurants.

Many of these models have different heat output settings that you can adjust according to the season. Some models can be turned off so that you can use them all year round, without losing the attractive flame effect. Some have a no-heat setting that just warms the area around it for added comfort. These are great features for homes with pets or children since the fireplace does not generate any heat.

Flame Effects

Electric fireplaces typically come with different flame effects that are designed to resemble real fire on wall. These features are typically combined with an LED background to create an authentic look that can easily blend in with different styles of interior decor. You can also change the intensity and color of the flame to match your mood, or the ambience of the room.

A chemical-based flame effect is a better option. It mimics the behaviour and appearance of a natural flame. They use the use of a chemical fluid that is heated by an element within the unit to create the fire. These units can be messy and require lots of maintenance.

A different option to chemical flames is the plasma blaze effect, which is made up of tiny particles that glow and flicker to mimic the appearance of a real fire. This kind of simulated flame could look fake and is not as appealing as other alternatives.

There are wall mounted electric fireplaces with a realistic log set and holographic flame projection that create a lifelike appearance. These units typically have the appearance of rust or wood that is a good match for traditional interior designs. They can also be positioned in recesses for an individualized look that blends into various wall designs.

The dimensions of your room as well as your personal preferences will determine the model you select. You will need to choose a larger model for larger rooms so that it can fill the space but not make it appear empty. A compact or mini model is better suited to smaller rooms. Electric fireplaces are available in a variety of frames and surrounds to fit your home's decor. For example the AL45CLX2-G wall-mount fireplace from Ambiance is available in a number of different finishes, including stainless steel, flat black metal, and standard black glass that fits into the majority of 2x4 walls.

Ventilation

Wall mount electric fireplaces provide a lot of style and function without the hassle of installing an actual fireplace. There is no need to engage an electrician or worry about the gas lines running through your home. However there are a few things to consider when selecting a wall-mounted electric fireplace.

The venting system is one of the most significant distinctions between wall-mounted fireplaces and freestanding ones. While many freestanding models have a vent at the back of the unit, many wall-mounted models don't. This is because the majority of the heat is absorbed from the top of the fireplace. It can be dangerous if the fireplace doesn't have enough venting. It's important to check reviews prior to purchasing a unit.

Another big difference between wall-mounted and freestanding fireplaces is the flame effects. While freestanding fireplaces are equipped with LED screens and rotisserie lights wall fire place-mounted models employ mist or other modern technology to create smoke and flames. Dimplex for instance, offers a range of fireplaces that use ultrasonic technology to create the illusion of a burning fire.

Some wall-mounted electric fireplaces can be partially recessed into the wall. This allows them to fit into tight spaces where a traditional fireplace would not. They also blend into a broad variety of interior styles.

Most electric wall-mounted fireplaces are designed to be viewed from the front, however there are some that have multi-view. These are usually larger than single-view models and allow you to see the flames on two or more sides.

Installation

Wall mount electric fireplaces, as the name suggests are designed to be mounted on the wall. They are usually mounted with a bracket. They are usually fairly simple to install, although the procedure for installation will differ between models. Some are simply fixed to the wall and screwed into it, while others may require you to construct frames around them prior to installing them on the wall. In either case, it's important to follow the directions included with the fire, ensuring that the opening of the frame is dimensioned and the unit is placed according to any safety guidelines.

The first step is to find an appropriate spot for the fireplace, based on the design of the room and any furniture you own. It is also important to ensure that the location is near enough to a power source, or if you're willing to let an electrical contractor move the plug socket (if one already exists) for you.

Once you've found the perfect place to position the fireplace, prepare the area by clearing it away, removing any existing furniture and then preparing the wall. This could involve removing any wallpaper or decorations, as well making sure you mark any studs you can with the help of a Studfinder.

The majority of wall-mounted electric fireplaces include templates for drilling holes. You should use to mark areas on the walls where the brackets are to be positioned. Once you have marked the locations on the wall and drilled the holes. Then, install the rawl plugs. In general it is essential to ensure that the heater - which sits in front of the fireplace and produces heat - is at a minimum of 400mm away from any combustible substances, such as fabrics.

After drilling the holes, you'll have to attach the bracket for mounting. Based on the model, some of these will require that you attach the firebox onto the bracket, while other will require you to place the entire fireplace onto the bracket before installing the screen. In either case, it's important that you follow the installation guidelines precisely to avoid damaging your new appliance. Plug the fireplace in and test it.
