No Smoke

With an electric fireplace, long gone are the days when your whole house smelled like smoke.

You can have a fireplace without harmful smoke or smoky odors seeping into carpets, rugs, couches, clothing or beds.

Energy Efficient

Electric fireplaces are one of the most efficient ways to heat a home and heat rooms faster and more efficiently than wood-burning fireplaces.

Since heat rises, traditional chimney fireplaces let all the heat out through the chimney. According to the Environmental Protection Agency, “most out the chimney, and much of the heated air in the room goes with it.”.

Since drafts come in through the chimney, your already heated room becomes cold again after a few gusts of freezing air coming down.

With an electric fireplace, rooms warm up quickly and stay warm throughout use.

Save Money

You may have guessed that the energy efficiency of electric fireplaces also makes them more cost-efficient.

As far as fireplaces go, electric is the least expensive. One of the reasons why is because electric fireplaces provide supplemental zone heating.

Zone heating saves money by allowing you to lower the overall temperature of your home by 10-15 degrees.

Then, you heat only the room that is occupied.

This concept reduces the use of wasted energy and could save you up to 10% on your energy bills.

Electric fireplaces also save you from costly chimney cleaning, service checks, and installation fees.

For wood-burning fireplaces, costs associated with installing and maintenance tend to be outrageous. With a traditional fireplace, you can expect to pay anywhere from $7,000-$10,000 or more on installation.

Furthermore, associated costs can add up quickly. Chimney inspection, chimney cleaning, wood, and the lost heat that escapes from the chimney can drive up those numbers.

Gas fireplace units run around $2,500 for the basic materials, along with another $2,500 for installation and finishing. Gas fireplaces also require annual service checks plus a chimney inspection, which can run from $100-$200.

Meanwhile, an electric fireplace allows you to simply plug it in and enjoy.

Anyone Can Enjoy an Electric Fireplace

Renters and those living in apartments, condos, small homes and even recreational vehicles (RVs) seldom get to enjoy the warmth and ambiance of a fireplace.

With electric fireplaces, anyone can enjoy the dancing flames in any room of their home.

Since there is no need for a chimney, electric fireplaces can be placed on any level of a building.

Easy Installation

One of the best things about electric fireplaces is the ease of installation. It is a one-step process!

All you have to do is plug it in and you are ready to enjoy.

On the opposite side, wood-burning and gas fireplaces are costly, time-consuming, and just a hassle to install. Oftentimes, you need a professional for installation.
