Electric Stove Fires

Electric fires are a great option for modern homes as they don't require a flue or chimney They simply require electricity. This makes them ideal for a fireplace with a recess or to create a media wall.

As opposed to a gas fireplace which requires a chimney and must be installed by a qualified installer, this makes electric fires an economical choice.

No need for a chimney or a flue

In contrast to wood and gas burners, electric stove fires do not require an installation of chimneys. Electric stove fires can be erected on the wall or in an existing fireplace that is no longer used. They operate by plugging them into a socket. They are a great option for homes without a chimney or for those who wish to heat their homes without the hassle of maintaining and chopping wood.

If you use wood to cook it over an open flame, combustion by-products like creosote may build up inside the chimney. Over time, this can cause the mortar and bricks to corrode, creating cracks in the chimney walls and smoke seeps into your home or neighbouring rooms. To avoid this the possibility of this happening, you must line your chimney with a top-quality flue liner. This can be done by a professional and is crucial to ensure the security of your fireplace.

Gas flueless stoves are an alternative option for those who want a real log fireplace for their home, but don't have a chimney. These innovative fires come with a catalytic convertor that transforms harmful gases into harmless ones. They require only a gas supply.

A twin wall flue system can be used to fit an electric stove that burns wood without the need for chimney. This is comprised of stainless steel pipes that can be run internally or externally and carry the smoke away to be vented into the outside air. These systems are reasonably priced, but you will need to pay for the labour to set them up and they must be kept at a minimum of 425mm away from any combustible material.

Also, you'll need to clean any flame effect parts. They are typically a halogen or LED strip and mirrors that are that are attached to rods. Again, these can be cleaned with a dry cloth or vacuum.
