How does an electric fireplace to be installed work?
A floor standing electric fireplace creates the illusion of a real traditional fireplace with a real fire, but in fact operates entirely electrically, which reproduces the flames with LED lighting and also guarantees a consistent heating solution.
The first advantage of an electric fireplace covers two aspects: visual and decorative. The electric fireplace uses an LED lighting system. The fireplace is therefore very realistic with its flames and logs. Optional sparks and crackles are also present on some models. The play of light creating the flames makes the illusion perfect, and the cladding of the electric fireplace mimics that of the traditional fireplace to perfection. This electric fireplace makes your home warm, comfortable and friendly. Several models exist, allowing you to match the aesthetics of your electric fireplace to your interior design.
Another strong point is that the electric fireplace offers an efficient heating solution with a very high heating power It works in a simple way: cold air enters a thermal convector and passes through an electric resistance, creating heat, and then exits the appliance, dispersing into the room with the help of a fan. No real fire is present in an electric fireplace, then there is no risk of burning or fire. The cladding or glass of a free-standing electric fireplace is not heated at all. Thanks to this electric heater, you can enjoy all the advantages of a traditional fireplace, while avoiding its disadvantages: no need for wood, cleaning, maintenance or supervision.
