A White Log Burner Electric Brings the Warmth of a Wood Burning Stove Into Your Home White electric log burners bring the appeal of real wood burning stoves into your home without the mess and risk. They also require less maintenance. These freestanding fires don't require chimneys, and are easy to set up by plugging directly into your mains. Many models feature eye-catching flame effects and glowing embers. These can be enhanced by customising the lighting to various colours and brightness levels. Realistic flames If you want an electric fireplace that looks realistic there are plenty of options available. Some electric fires have 3D flame effects, which make use of projections and layered effects to create the illusion of depth and height. Some models feature customizable backgrounds, multiple colors and can be altered to match your decor. Other features include a real pine scent sound, crackling and popping and two temperature settings which can be controlled thermostatically. Certain models of electric stoves, such as the popular Gazco Huntingdon electric stove are designed to mimic the appearance of an authentic log-burning gas stove. They feature an eye-catching fuel bed as well as hand-painted log effect. The fire is created using Gazco's VeriFlame Technology that creates a realistic log effect and offers various uplighting colors to enhance the authentic look of the stove. Another option is to go for an electric fire with a flat-screen display like the GreatCo 50-inch Gallery Linear Electric Fireplace, which uses prism flame technology to create an alluring visual display. The colours of the flames are breathtaking and you can alter the uplighting to suit your décor. A lot of our electric fireplaces provide the option of replacing the fuel that creates a log effect with a crystal-ice-effect. This gives you the chance to change the appearance without altering your interior design and reduces the need for cleaning and maintenance. We also have a variety of built-in or inset electric fireplaces that can be positioned in a flush with the wall, eliminating the necessity for a mantelpiece and chimney stack. Suites like the Celsi Ultiflame Adour Aleesia, Evonic 900 GF and the Gazco eReflex55R will allow you to maximize floor space, while creating a stunning focal point. Make sure you plug in your new electric fireplace and check it out before beginning. If you're installing the fire in a wall-mounted or inset electric fireplace, be sure to ensure that there's enough airflow around it to avoid overheating and potential damage to your home. Be aware that overhead accent lighting or canopy lighting can interfere with the electric flame effect. It is best to keep them off or at a lower level. Instant heat Free standing electric log burners provide all the warmth and convenience of a wood burning stove, without the mess or maintenance. Forget grates, ash pans, and chimneys. Plug it in and turn it on. That's all it takes to operate an electric stove heater. Our white stove range includes a range of practical features that are suitable for a variety of applications. Look for models that have remotes and apps-enabled controls, decorative ember kits outdoor-compatible materials, and ANSI/UL Certifications. Some models are even equipped with fans to push heated air into the room. Some electric stoves are also available with different settings for the flame and colors, so you can make an appearance that suits your mood or design. This is especially helpful if you have young children around, as you can turn off the flames with the press of a button. If you're looking for an innovative alternative to traditional log burners, try this sleek, stylish electric stove from Gazco. The contemporary black glass door and black glass plinth provide a sleek modern, elegant look, and its eye-catching flame projection technology called 'Veriflame' creates a stunningly realistic log fire. The fuel bed can be lit up in 13 different colors and is thermostatically controlled*. This allows you to have the most flexibility. This model is DEFRA-approved and Ecodesign-ready, meaning it is suitable to control smoke in areas. Other electric log heaters provide different flame effects like low flame, high flame, and medium flame. Some models also have flame projection modes that provide the appearance of a 3D holographic effect on the front and back of flames. Another great thing about an electric stove is that it can put it in nearly any fireplace opening that is currently in use without the necessity of a flue system. This makes it a perfect option for homes without chimneys or rented accommodation. Before ordering, make sure that the electric log burner you pick is the right size for your fireplace. Take measurements of the dimensions of the width, height and depth of your fireplace and check the manufacturer's recommended clearances. Before you purchase a fireplace we suggest that you visit your local showroom and seek expert advice. Easy to install Modern electric fire suites, like this one made by Livivo, offer all the luxury and appeal of a wood burning fireplace in an easy to install unit. This is an excellent choice for those who don't need to install a chimney or flue inside their home or moving into rented accommodations in which this type of fireplace is not allowed. It also makes a superb addition to conservatories and other outdoor spaces in which it can be used as the primary source of heating. This model comes with two heating settings, as well as thermal safety cutoff. Make sure you choose electric log burners with realistic flame effects, and a booming sound to enhance the experience. Some models have audio options that play real-life sounds of logs burning and snapping. This creates an immersive experience. Other added features that make these stoves an excellent choice include remote controls for simple operation and an auto shut-off timer and safety flame failure devices for peace of mind. Certain models have built-in thermostats that allow for precise control, which makes them a fantastic choice for those who wish to heat certain areas of their homes. They are also less expensive to run than wood-burning stoves. They use a fraction of the energy used by other heating methods. Another benefit of using an electric log burner is that they require minimal maintenance. This is particularly true of free-standing models that can be easily moved around the room and plugged into a standard three-pin plug socket. Wall-mounted models that are recessed into the wall may require a little more installation however, they will still require being wired into the electrical system of your home and connected to a regular power outlet. If you are seeking a longer-lasting solution plug-in inserts are readily available as well. These fully enclosed units are perfect for those who live in rental housing or don't have access to flues at home. These units are a bit more complicated to install than a freestanding electric fire, and will usually require an electrician with experience to do the job. Low Maintenance A fireplace can transform your living room into a warm, inviting space. Examine your habits, preferences for heating as well as the installation requirements and design preferences to determine the perfect fireplace for your home. Electric log burners are a convenient and low-maintenance alternative to traditional wood burning stoves. Electric log burners require less maintenance because they don't include ash pans, grates or chimneys. They also don't need to store fuel. This makes an electric log burner the ideal option for homes with small children or those without the ability to install the flue - for instance, in rented homes. Although not as efficient as stoves with an integrated flue, an electric log burner that is freestanding can deliver impressive fire-effects and realistic flames. Find models with a variety of convenience features such as remote and app-enabled controls as well as media options (like crackling fire sounds) and outdoor-friendly materials and ANSI/UL Certifications. Some models are DEFRA certified and Ecodesign-ready that means they're as efficient and clean-burning as is possible, while providing the best comfort. Some have cooking surfaces to increase their versatility and make them suitable for daily use and entertaining. This Mendip Ashcroft Ivory is DEFRA-approved with a robust efficiency rating of 85%. The simple design is complemented by a black stove pipe that gives a striking look.
