Choosing an Electric Fire

Trying to choose a contemporary electric fire to suit your modern lifestyle? This can be a tricky decision, especially with so much choice out there on the market. Here’s a little guidance to help you on your way.
Before choosing your new fireplace, check that you have a mains supply. Then you need to think about why you have opted for an electric fire as opposed to the alternatives. Some choose to this low effort option because it allows you the effect and warmth of a fire, without having to install a chimney.  Others choose this route as it is a stunning addition to your home that many style conscious consumers have envisioned to be the focal point in their homes.
Whatever your reasons, keep in mind your particular requirements, as this will help you to choose the style and features that you desire.  This is a personal choice which will make a long term effect on your living space.

Perhaps you’re looking for a hearth on a budget, such as the Orial Deltona inset electric fire, the classically looking electric fire that works with both modern and traditional fireplaces. Or perhaps style is more important to you than cost, such as the latest new available model from Apex, the Rio Grande, featuring a solid natural stone fascia (shown with Travertine) boasts a stunning realistic LED Flame effect that uses next to no energy while on flame effect only while also boasting remote control, allowing you effortless control of your fire.
