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 Memphis

What is the downside of an electric fireplace?

Do electric fireplaces use lots of electricity?

The flame effect uses very little energy, similar to a light bulb. The heater uses more, but it's efficient for heating a single room. Think of it as a decorative accent with a capable space heater for your Memphis residence. You can run just the flames for ambiance without much energy use.

For many Memphis residents, they are an excellent idea. They offer the look and feel of a fireplace without the complicated installation, maintenance, or safety concerns of wood or gas fireplaces. They're a convenient and attractive addition to any living space.

What's the most realistic looking electric fireplace?

Modern electric fireplaces feature incredibly realistic flame effects, often with adjustable colors, speeds, and detailed ember beds. Many units have lifelike log sets that enhance the visual appeal. The local pros can show you options that will fit your Memphis home's decor perfectly.

Is an electric fireplace insert a good idea?

An insert is a fantastic idea if you have an existing, unused fireplace opening. It's a clean and simple way to add a fireplace feature without major renovations. This can significantly enhance the ambiance and functionality of a room in your Memphis home.
