Many people don't realize that electric fireplaces are perfect for summer evenings.

It creates a relaxing mood for entertaining guests or unwinding after a long day without adding any heat to your home.

Frequently asked in St. Louis

What is the downside of an electric fireplace?

The main drawback for some St. Louis residents is that electric fireplaces provide supplemental heat and might not fully heat extremely large or poorly insulated spaces on their own. They also require electricity, so a power outage will disable them. However, for ambiance and moderate heating, they are excellent.

Do electric fireplaces use lots of electricity?

The flame effect on an electric fireplace uses very little electricity, similar to running a few light bulbs. The heating element consumes more power, but it's designed for efficient room heating. For a St. Louis home, using just the flame effect offers great ambiance without a significant energy bill.

Are electric fireplaces a good idea?

Yes, electric fireplaces are a wonderful idea for many St. Louis homeowners. They are simple to install, require no venting, and provide realistic flame effects and supplemental heat. They are a safe and convenient way to add warmth and a beautiful focal point to any room.

What's the most realistic looking electric fireplace?

The realism of electric fireplaces has advanced significantly. Look for models with multi-dimensional flame effects, adjustable color palettes for flames and embers, and varying flame speeds. Some even mimic the sound of crackling wood. The pros can help you find options that look fantastic in St. Louis homes.

Is an electric fireplace insert a good idea?

An electric fireplace insert is an excellent idea if you have an existing fireplace opening you'd like to convert. It’s a clean, efficient, and cost-effective way to upgrade without major renovations. This is a popular choice for St. Louis homes looking to add a modern touch to traditional spaces.

Can I plug an electric fireplace into a regular outlet?

Most electric fireplaces are designed to plug into a standard 120-volt household outlet, making installation straightforward. Some larger models with higher heating output might suggest a dedicated circuit. The specialists will assess your home's electrical setup during your free estimate to ensure a safe installation.
