About this service

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 Reno

What is the downside of an electric fireplace?

While they offer convenience and ambiance, electric fireplaces don't provide the same level of intense heat as wood or gas units, making them better for supplemental warming. The flame effect, though improving, might not satisfy those seeking the absolute most realistic fire experience. For Reno homes, they're ideal for comfort and style.

Do electric fireplaces use lots of electricity?

The flame effect uses minimal power, similar to a light. The heater function uses more, but it's designed for efficient supplemental heat. For a room in Reno, it's generally more energy-efficient than heating the entire house if you only need a little extra warmth.

Are electric fireplaces a good idea?

Yes, they are an excellent choice for many Reno homeowners. They offer a simple installation, require no ventilation, and provide adjustable heat and realistic flame effects for ambiance. They're a safe and convenient way to enhance your living space without the complexities of traditional fireplaces.

What's the most realistic looking electric fireplace?
Is an electric fireplace insert a good idea?

An electric fireplace insert is a smart choice for many Reno homes, especially those with existing, unused fireplace openings. It's a straightforward way to update the look and functionality of your space, adding warmth and a beautiful focal point without extensive renovations.

Can I plug an electric fireplace into a regular outlet?

Most electric fireplaces are designed to plug directly into a standard 110-120V wall outlet. This makes installation incredibly easy and accessible for most homes in Reno. The professionals can confirm compatibility with your existing electrical setup when you call.
