Electric fireplaces offer the appearance of a traditional fireplace without the flame or smoke. An electric fireplace draws in cool air and uses a heating coil to warm that air. They then gently push that warm air back into the room using a fan. Because of this, electric fireplaces mimic the heat and appearance of a flame without the same safety hazards as a gas or wood-burning fireplace.
Additionally, many electric fireplaces offer flame technology which offer the appearance of the flame without the heat so you can continue to use it all year long.
Fireplace inserts differ from fireplaces. Fireplaces consist of the entire structure, typically designed using masonry such as brick, stone, or metal.
A fireplace insert, however, functions as a self-contained unit. This means you can find a model with required components already included. Where a fireplace exists to safely contain a fire, an insert can install into existing masonry like an existing fireplace or firebox. If the fuel type requires it, they may require exterior venting. Fireplace inserts also typically feature a trim that can cover leftover gaps or spaces around the unit.
Fireplace inserts work well when you already own an existing fireplace. They offer a less expensive renovation or replacement option.
Gas, electric, and wood-burning fireplaces differ in the type of fuel they use to provide heat. Gas and wood-burning fireplaces provide heat using a real fire. Electric fireplaces provide heat and realistic flame effects but do not use real fire.
Additionally, electric fireplaces stay cooler to the touch than gas or wood-burning fireplaces.
