In Wall Fireplace - How to Choose the Right Height and Depth for Your Fireplace
An in wall fireplace provides an elegant and polished appearance without the cost of mantles. It is one of the most simple electric fireplaces to set up.
There are a few aspects to take into consideration prior to purchasing your fireplace in wall. Follow these suggestions to get the most out of your purchase.
Height
It might appear to be a simple question but determining the size of your fireplace is among the biggest decisions you will make. This is because the height of your fireplace can affect everything from how it fits in a room to how well it is visible. A fireplace that is too high can look unnatural and diminish the aesthetics of the piece. A fireplace that is too low can look drab in the wall space.
Luckily, electric fireplaces are versatile enough to be installed at various heights. For instance, the majority of people choose to mount their fireplaces at eye level from a sitting position. This requires a height of 40-42 inches. Others mount their fireplaces underneath their TVs, which can be visually appealing.
The height of your fireplace depends on several factors that include the dimensions and length of the wall you intend to mount it on. The larger a room is and the bigger it is, the larger it can be, and this might mean that you can install a bigger fireplace in it. The length of the wall is also crucial because a wall that is longer will support a larger fireplace.
Another important factor to consider is how you plan to use your fireplace. If you plan to use it only to decorate your home, a lower height is best. If you intend to heat your home using it, you'll have to make sure that the fireplace is tall enough to meet local codes and safety standards.
It is essential to choose the proper size for your fireplace to ensure that it will match your decor and is easy to clean or fill. You can always consult an expert fireplace installer to assist you if you are unsure of the size you should pick. They can recommend the ideal height for your fireplace based on their knowledge and your home.
Depth
A fireplace's depth is important to know if you want to install it in a recessed location. If you plan to cut into the wall, make sure that you have enough space to accommodate the fireplace's internal design (the space for the smoke shelf above the firebox as well as the flue that extends upwards from the roof). You should also think about the space available for the surround and whether you'd like a fireplace suite mantle.
Many of the latest electric models of fireplaces have an interior depth that is almost concealed, creating the appearance of a "built-in" look. This kind of electric wall fireplace is best illustrated by the Panorama BI Deep series. This model features an 5.8-inch depth that lets the user see the flames and the ember bed and not the frame of the fireplace. It also comes with a choice of media packages including natural-looking driftwood logs that look like driftwood white pebbles, crystals of clear glass that reflect the flames and add luster to the ember bed.
Gas wall-mounted fireplaces also come in both shallow and deep models. However, when deciding on the depth of your fireplace, it is important to keep in mind that these fireplaces function as a supplemental heat source and must be properly vented by an experienced professional. When determining the depth for gas fireplaces, you need to take into consideration the length of the vent pipe as well as the size of the chimney.
If you decide to go with a surface mount or a recess-mounted installation, it is important to read and follow all of the manufacturer's instructions when installing your fireplace. A professional installer is recommended in all cases. It is best to have an extra person available when installing gas fireplaces.
Addition of an in-wall ethonal fire place to your home is an excellent option to enhance it and add an atmosphere. It can also lower the cost of heating. Moreover, it is an excellent option if you are unable to fit traditional fireplaces in your home due to the space restrictions or the location of an existing chimney.
Surface Mount
Surface mounts are an excellent alternative if you don't want to or can't cut into the wall to mount an electric fireplace. They also provide a sleek, built-in appearance. Some models, such as the Allusion line of electric fires fireplaces, can be installed partially recessed into a wall without compromising the heat output.
To begin the installation begin by marking the wall with a pencil where the bracket will be mounted. Utilize a stud-finder to find the studs and place each bracket in front at least one stud for stability. If a stud is not in reach or doesn't work for your fireplace, you can use anchors for drywall to help support the mounting bracket.
Once you've marked the location of the brackets to be mounted and drilled them, screw them into the wall making sure they are aligned with the studs. If you can, secure each bracket to a stud for strength and stability, however you can also use anchors made of plastic if necessary. Once the mounting brackets are in place, raise your fireplace and hang it on the wall bracket. When the fireplace is in place be sure that it is level.
Before proceeding with the installation, connect your fireplace and check that all features are working correctly. Turn on the flame and start the flames. play around with the heat, ember bed lights and so on. When you are satisfied with the results it is time to install the floating mantel.
Depending on the type of your fireplace, you'll either require a wire connection to the appliance wire connector in the bottom of the mantel or, if your fireplace has hooks or slots on the back connecting them to slots on the wall mounting brackets. After you've completed this step you should consult your fireplace's user manual to learn how to remove the glass front panel from the opening and replace it.
If you have to alter the height you can replace the glass front once you have removed the front panel. If your fireplace stove comes with ember bed media, spread it over the top of the grate to create an organic appearance, then secure it in place using the screws included.
Plug-In
Unlike traditional wood-burning fireplaces, electric fires fireplaces don't require vents or chimneys. Plugged into a standard outlet they provide supplemental heating for rooms up to 400 square feet. They also come with a variety of heating and flame settings, to allow you to customize your ambiance. Certain models have LED lighting effects that highlight the ember bed and the fire. Some models feature a grille on top which hides the manual controls, but can easily be opened to reveal pushbuttons.
Plug-in electric fireplaces can be hung directly on walls or installed into the wall for a built-in look. These fireplaces are usually easier to install than mantel fireplaces. Some come with a pedestal base to permit you to put the fireplace on a flat surface, such as a dresser or buffet. Included is the remote control, mounting hardware and log set. Depending on the model, these electric fireplaces can include heating and flame options that can be turned off to provide ambiance throughout the year.
Some models feature privacy glass that can be adjusted instantly, from being fully transparent to partially transparent. This makes these models popular for walls that divide common spaces for entertainment, such as living and dining spaces. These models can be utilized in bedrooms, where adding fireplaces is a cost-effective way to warm a room and ensure privacy.
While plug-in electric fireplaces don't require a hardwire like traditional fireplaces, they must be installed on an area that is at the very least not stud-free and is able to support the weight of the fireplace. Some models include kits to make this process more simple with a pre-wired power cord and a bracket for mounting. This kit is available for concrete or drywall installation.
When deciding where to put your wall-mounted electric fireplace, make sure it's close to an electrical outlet. Depending on the model, plug-in electric fireplaces can be connected to outlets that are on the same circuit, or a separate one for your electric fireplace. It is suggested to use a separate circuit, so that all other appliances in your home run on the same voltage. This could trigger your circuit breaker.
