Frequently asked in Cincinnati

What is the downside of an electric fireplace?

The heat output of electric fireplaces is typically lower than gas or wood-burning options, making them best for supplemental heat or ambiance rather than primary heating. Some people also find the visual realism of the flame less convincing. However, their convenience and safety are major advantages for Cincinnati homes.

Do electric fireplaces use lots of electricity?

The heating element in an electric fireplace can use a significant amount of electricity, comparable to a space heater. However, the flame effect uses very little power, so you can enjoy the visual ambiance without turning on the heat. The pros can discuss energy usage for your specific unit.

Is an electric fireplace insert a good idea?

Can I plug an electric fireplace into a regular outlet?
