The Evolution Of Free Standing Fires

How Free Standing Fires Can Transform Your Home

Free standing fires are an excellent way to add a warm and warm atmosphere to your home. They are particularly useful in homes that don't have a fireplace built-in.

When building your fire pit, ensure that you build a concrete pad that is at a minimum 4"-8" thick. This will stop the fire from causing damage or destruction to the surrounding walls.

Easy to install

A free-standing fire can completely transform rooms and is easy to set up. However, it is crucial to be aware that a wall-mounted fire should not be placed directly on the floor. It must always be positioned on the foundation of a timber or masonry platform. It is also important to ensure that the platform is clear of any combustible material.

If you're a competent DIYer, it's easy to mount an electric fireplace freestanding in your home. These fireplaces can be an excellent alternative to traditional gas and wood fireplaces. They provide all the warmth that fires provide without the hassle. There is no chimney breast required and they don't cost as much to run as one would think.

There are a variety of free-standing fires, each with its unique features and options. Some of these fires come with an impressive amount of visual appeal, and others can be customized with different flame settings and fuel beds. Some models have a smartphone app and remote control.

There's a fireplace that's freestanding to meet your needs, whether you want an elegant, contemporary design or a more rustic.

Visually appealing

A freestanding fire is a unique piece of furniture that provides warmth and an atmosphere to your home. It is a fantastic choice for those with small homes, as it can fit in tight spaces without taking up a lot of space. It comes with features normally only found on oversized fireplaces.

There are many different types of freestanding electric fires. However, a few of them feature a striking design which can enhance the aesthetics of your home. The Dimplex Cheriton, for example, is an amazing fireplace that is constructed of a Lamont Black Electric Fireplace: Cozy Home Addition glass frame and white stone effect finish. The log and coal bed is an eye-catching feature and features back lights to create a more dramatic look.

If you want an attractive fireplace with a contemporary sophisticated design The Stratus Extra tall model from Aga Rayburn is a fantastic choice. This fireplace has a colour-changing log effect and coal. It also has the option of turning to a flame effect only if you do not need heating.

The fire can be incorporated to a wall-mounted cabinet, or a bespoke frame for a classic design. A see-through design is one of the most popular trends and can truly make your room more cohesive. There are also models which are built into partition walls, or even decorative pillars, to create a stunning focal point.

Installing a longline burner will also make your freestanding fireplace more appealing. This type of burner is ideal for installation in a custom-built fireplace. You can also use it in a see-through installation, which is ideal for smaller spaces. This type of fire can be placed in a corner or under the television to create an amazing focal point.

Easy to maintain

Free standing fireplaces are fantastic since they don't require chimneys or flues which means you can enjoy your fireplace with minimal effort. Many of our Solution Fires come with remote control access which allows you to switch between heating and flame effects with the click of the button.

Wood log burning fires do require regular maintenance and upkeep. You'll need to clean the ash dump regularly and ensure that the stove is venting correctly. Make sure that the ash dump flows smoothly and that there aren't any obstructions or creosote buildups inside. To prevent dust accumulation you must clean the ember beds periodically. You can clean the ember bed by using the help of a soft cloth or vacuum cleaner hose attachment.

Electric fires are also easy to maintain. It is enough to wipe away any dust build-up on the mirrors and ember bed from time to every so often using an easy cloth or dry lint-free sponge. It is possible to clean your fireplace's air intakes at times according to the amount of dust that is in your home. You can do this by taking off the glass from the fire and opening the air inlets, which are typically located on the top of each side of your fire. You can clean the air intakes using dry rags or the vacuum cleaner nozzle.

Another benefit of electric fires is that they do not produce any heat until they are turned on, which means no unnecessary heating and thereby saving money. In addition some Dimplex electric fires feature the technology of a room-sensing thermostat that constantly determines the ambient temperature of the room and adjusts the heating to eliminate uncomfortable and inefficient "room temperature swings".

Our stunning range of freestanding log burners including the Stovax Solus, are a excellent way to add warmth and ambience to any living space in your home.

Energy efficient

A free-standing fireplace is a great option for those who want an open fire but without the cost and hassle of building a chimney. It is also simple to set up and can be moved from one area to another. This is particularly useful in the event that you decide to move or change the design. This type of fireplace is also a great choice for those who care about the environment. It produces very little air pollution and does require fossil fuels. Another benefit of a free-standing fireplace is that it doesn't have to be vented outwards, which means it is less likely to cause air quality issues.

In addition to their aesthetic appeal, free-standing electric fireplaces are very economical in terms of purchase and operating costs. They are powered by electricity, in contrast to traditional fireplaces which use coal or gas. They are also less expensive to run than gas fireplaces that can cost as high as PS300 per year. To make sure you're not wasting money choose a model with an energy efficiency rating of A or better.

One of the most important aspects in determining the amount that an electric fireplace will cost to run is its size. It is important to choose the appropriate size fire for the space you have. A larger fire will consume more power. If you choose something too big, you will use up electricity and heat - not to mention, it will be more difficult to maintain.

There are many things you can do to lower the price of an electric fire:

Burn only wood that is seasoned. This will make the fireplace as efficient as it can, and last longer. You can also insulate your chimney to reduce the amount of the energy used by your fireplace. Finally, make sure you turn off your fireplace when you're not using it. Even turning it off for an hour will save you money over the course of the year.

EcoSmart Fire's bioethanol-burners are ideal for modern free-standing fireplaces because they are an affordable heating option and can be used in a variety of rooms. This is especially important for commercial spaces with open floor plans. For example, a company called Flex Peninsula integrated an EcoSmart bioethanol burner into a contemporary swimming pool to create an intense tension between water and fire. This enabled them to reach their goal of incorporating an additional workspace in the space that was open.
