About this service

An insert is designed to fit into an existing masonry fireplace or a custom cabinet. You need this service if you want to modernize an old, unused hearth without the mess of burning logs. Our process involves measuring your current opening, preparing the electrical hookups, and fitting the insert snugly for a seamless appearance. This is a great solution for homeowners who want to retain the look of a traditional fireplace while gaining the convenience of electric heating.

Many people don't realize that electric fireplaces are perfect for summer evenings. Since you can turn off the heating element entirely, you can keep the aesthetic charm of the fireplace running on a warm night. It creates a relaxing mood for entertaining guests or unwinding after a long day without adding any heat to your home.

Frequently asked in Arlington

What is the downside of an electric fireplace?

The primary 'downside' is that they offer supplemental heat, not primary heating for a whole house in Arlington. The visual realism, while much improved, might not satisfy everyone compared to a real wood-burning fire. However, the ease of use and safety are major advantages.

Do electric fireplaces use lots of electricity?

They use electricity for both the heating element and the visual flame effect. The flame effect uses very little power, comparable to a light bulb. The heater functions like a space heater, so it will draw more power when active. For supplemental heat in an Arlington home, it's generally efficient.

Are electric fireplaces a good idea?

For many Arlington homeowners, they are an excellent idea. They provide ambiance, supplemental heat, and are incredibly easy to install and operate. You avoid the maintenance, mess, and safety concerns associated with traditional fireplaces, making them a practical and attractive choice.

What's the most realistic looking electric fireplace?

Modern electric fireplaces offer impressive realism with advanced LED technology. Look for models with multi-dimensional flame effects, ember beds, and adjustable color settings. The pros who serve Arlington can guide you toward brands known for their lifelike flames during your free consultation.

Is an electric fireplace insert a good idea?

Yes, an electric fireplace insert is a fantastic idea if you want to add charm and warmth to a room without a full renovation. They can be installed in existing mantels or even wall-mounted, offering a clean and stylish upgrade for your Arlington home.

Can I plug an electric fireplace into a regular outlet?

Most electric fireplaces are designed to plug into a standard 120-volt outlet, making installation incredibly simple. The specialists who come to your Arlington home will confirm this and ensure your electrical setup is suitable during the free estimate.
