Free Standing Electric Fireplaces

With a model that is freestanding, you don't need to make holes in your walls. Mounting brackets are usually included with the product and the specifications will let you know how far apart to place them.

The CSA-certified fireplace has four heat settings as well as a display top with plenty of space. It also comes with a cool-to-the touch exterior. It also has overheat protection and an automatic shut-off.

Wall-Mounted

Electric fireplaces that are wall-mounted are great for those who don't want to cut their walls or frame an opening. These fireplaces include mounting brackets that allow you to mount the fireplace directly on the wall, just like an LCD or picture and, in most cases, you can install it yourself, though you may require assistance from a second pair hands if the model is larger than the norm. These units are also perfect for those who rent their home because they can be easily taken down when it's time to move. They don't even leave a hole on the wall.

Certain models of wall-mounted fireplaces are built flush into the wall to give a clean appearance or to build them in part into the wall recess to give them more depth. Certain models, such as the Napoleon Allure Vertical Series come with a trim skirt to cover the protrusion of the fireplace. You can also alter these models' appearance by choosing different flame and background colors to match your decor.

A wall-mounted freestanding electric fireplace can take up a large amount of floor space. Since you aren't able to mount it into an opening in the wall the fireplace tends to stick out more than a freestanding model that has an edging. This is not a major disadvantage and should be considered when choosing the best kind of fireplace for your needs.

Another upside of a wall-mounted electric fireplace is that you can place it in any space of your home. This means you can add a touch of ambiance to your living room while also creating an excellent focal point, and a warm place for friends and family to gather together. You can also put one in the office or bedroom to create a relaxing atmosphere while you relax and work.

Mantel

Many of these electrical fire places have a mantel which looks like a wood-burning fireplace. These fireplaces with electric technology are an excellent choice for those who would like to have the look of an in-built fireplace, but do not want to make structural changes to their house or incur the high cost of installing one. They're also safe for children and pets to be around, since they don't release smoke or flames that could be dangerous for anyone near them.

Certain electric fireplaces with mantels are able to be used with or without heat, allowing you to enjoy the flame effects all year round. If you decide to use them with heat, it's common for these models to have a setting that allows you to regulate the amount of heat produced by the firebox. You can adjust this using the remote control or Alexa. Some of the best electric fireplaces feature a feature which detects when you are in the room, and switches the firebox off or on automatically.

Electric fireplaces come in a variety of styles, ranging from traditional and rustic to sleek and contemporary. You'll be able to find one that will complement your interior design. Some electric fireplaces wooden are made to be hung over a flat-screen television. If you decide to go with this type of model, it's best to choose a fireplace that has a width that's close to the same or less than the height of your television.

If you want to create a unique style, you should consider a transparent electric fireplace. It's the only kind of electric fireplace available that allows you to look through it into another room. It's a great choice for dividing rooms in your home or if you want to have the fireplace be the centerpiece of your living space.

There are electric fireplaces that have a mantel in a variety of finishes, including white or whiskey maple. Certain models have an optional built-in shelf which can be used to display decorative objects such as books, vases or other objects of decoration. Some models come with an alarm clock that can be set to shut off the unit after six hours.

Cabinet

If you have an old-fashioned wood burning fireplace in your home but do not use it, you can change it to an electric fireplace. There are different electric fireplace inserts available which look exactly like your fireplace, and they can be connected to the existing firebox to turn it into an electric fireplace. We tested a model that looks similar to an old-fashioned log grate. It also has built-in lighting that creates the appearance of a flame on your existing walls, as well as an electric heater that provides instant heating for your room. The unit comes with a remote control that lets you adjust all settings, including flame intensity, height, and the ember bed lighting.

Freestanding electric fireplaces, unlike wall-mounted units are portable and do not require permanent installation or mounting brackets. They can be moved around your home as needed and can be used with or without the built-in heater. They come with a stand that can hold flat-screen televisions, and are specifically designed to fit into your home decor. They are a great choice for those who don't wish to permanently change their living spaces or don't have enough space in their homes for an acoustic mantel or recessed unit.

They are also great for apartments as they can be moved if you move. Some have a less traditional, more modern design than a freestanding fireplace, but they still make a huge difference to a room. They are also simpler to operate than a wall mounted unit since you only need to plug the unit in and it will start working.

A cabinet-style electric fire is also a great choice to match the colors of your home. There are also options that match the colors of your floors and walls and floors, so you don't have to paint them. Regardless of the type of fireplace you choose be sure to select one that's easy to operate and is safe for kids and pets. It should be simple to clean using a damp rag.

Freestanding

Freestanding electric stone fireplaces are able to stand alone in a room. Some electric fireplaces have a base to enhance their appearance, whereas others sit on a flat surface.

The Costway 20-inch Freestanding Electric Fireplace is one of the top picks. It features a sleek and rounded design that received high scores during tests for its attractive appearance. It is also ready to use straight out of the package, without any assembly required. It has low and high temperatures as well as the ability to set a timer using the hidden control panel.

In our tests the flames looked real and the logs exhibited an authentic glow. The model is also notable for its simple controls and simple operation: an energy switch, a thermostat control, and a heater dial. This is useful since it lets you choose the setting you prefer without having to fiddle with the controls on the device.

This freestanding model also has the capability to be used with no heating. We found that the flames could produce beautiful light even when the heater was shut off. You can enjoy the warm and cozy appearance anytime.

However, we did notice that this model does not provide the same amount of warmth as some of our other choices. This is because the heating method is convection and not radiant. We were able to feel warmth as far as 4.5ft away, despite this. The temperature settings of this unit can be adjusted using the remote control, and it comes with four different flame effects to select from. In terms of safety, this model has overheat protection and stays cool to the top of its surface which means you can put decorative items on it. It is also CSA Group certified and has a sturdy build that held against the pounding of our testers. This makes it a budget-friendly and secure option for those looking to add a freestanding fireplace in their home.
