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 Kansas City

What is the downside of an electric fireplace?

The primary downside is that the heat output, while good for a room, may not be sufficient to heat an entire large house on its own. Also, the flame effect, though often convincing, isn't identical to a real fire. For most Kansas City homes, it's a great supplemental heat and ambiance solution.

Do electric fireplaces use lots of electricity?

The visual flame effect uses minimal electricity, similar to a few light bulbs. The heater component uses more power, but it's designed to be energy-efficient for zone heating. It's a cost-effective way to warm up a specific area in your Kansas City home.

Are electric fireplaces a good idea?

Yes, electric fireplaces are an excellent idea for many Kansas City residents. They offer the ambiance of a fireplace without the mess, maintenance, or safety concerns of wood or gas. They're simple to operate and can be installed in various locations.

What's the most realistic looking electric fireplace?

Seek out models with advanced 3D flame technology, customizable flame colors, and ember bed effects. Some even include realistic log sets and sound features. These elements combine to create a very convincing visual and auditory experience.

Is an electric fireplace insert a good idea?

An insert is a fantastic idea if you have an existing fireplace opening that you're not using for traditional fire. It's a quick and clean way to modernize your hearth and add a functional heating element. Many Kansas City homeowners find it a perfect upgrade.

Can I plug an electric fireplace into a regular outlet?

Most electric fireplaces are designed to plug into a standard 120-volt household outlet. This makes installation incredibly convenient for Kansas City homeowners. You won't need special wiring for most units, simplifying the process significantly.
