Gas and solid fuel fireplaces are perfect for homes with chimneys, while balanced-flue models are the best alternative for those without. Electric fireplaces are available for both and can be tailored to suit your requirements.

Certain models also come with special energy efficiency technology, such as thermostats that help you control and adjust the temperature levels.

You can also use the simple formula below to calculate the cost of running your suite on a regular basis. To calculate this, determine how much your energy provider charges for electricity in pence per kilowatt and then multiply that by the number of hours you're expecting to use the suite on every day basis.

Also, you should take into consideration any particular conditions that might affect your heater. For instance if it is located in a cold area or if the doors and windows are open to the outside temperature.

Modern electric fireplace suites can enhance your living space by creating an inviting and warm ambience without the lengthy and costly installation process that is associated with gas or wood-burning fires. A fireplace suite is comprised of all the elements that you'd normally see in an inset fireplace, including a surround, hearth and back panel, but instead of being fuelled by gas or wood it operates on electricity.

Conventional gas-fueled fires are great for homes with chimneys or balanced flue, while models with balanced flues allow you to install the heating element regardless of whether or not your house has a flue.

The heat generated by these models isn't as strong as that of a real log fireplace but it still produces enough warmth to keep your living space cosy. If you want to reduce your energy consumption, select an electric fire set-up that has a low wattage.

Multiply the wattage of a fireplace suite by the current electricity price and the number of hours a day you'll need to use it. Then, you can compare this figure to the kWh tariff offered by your energy provider to see how much you'll save on the cost of running your fireplace.

Adding decorative elements around your electric fireplace suite could take the ambiance of your living space to a new level. For example, placing an enormous mirror above your fireplace could reflect light and visually expand your space and an art piece that is framed can make a focal point of your living room decor.

They generate heat by using the use of a fan that draws cool air inside the unit and then blows the heated air out to warm your home in a flash. This feature is ideal for those who suffer from allergies or asthma and struggle to breathe in the smoke of real fires.
