Energy Efficient Heating with Electric Fireplace Suites: What You Need to Know

Many people are turning to electric fireplace suites to add warmth to their homes. These convenient packages come with everything you need, so you don't have to worry about figuring out separate components or complicated installations. They don’t require a chimney, making them so much simpler to maintain compared to traditional gas or wood-burning fireplaces. There's a wide variety of styles and features available, too, so you're sure to find an electric fireplace suite that fits your home perfectly. And beyond just looking good, electric fireplace suites can actually help you save on energy without sacrificing that cosy warmth. 

Energy-efficient heating explained

Electric fireplaces are well known for their energy efficiency. That’s because they convert most of the electrical energy into heat, therefore minimising waste. This makes them a more cost-effective and eco-friendly heating solution.

In addition, electric fireplace suites are ready to install and don’t require extensive renovations or preparations. And because they don’t need a chimney or any other venting, all the heat goes and circulates within your living space.

How efficient are electric fires?

Since they convert electricity into heat, electric fireplaces are rated 99% efficient — compare that to traditional fireplaces that are typically less than 20% energy-efficient. Why the huge difference? A lot of the heat from a traditional fireplace escapes right up the chimney, even when you're not using it. So, if energy efficiency is important to your household, modern electric fireplace suitesare definitely worth considering.

Precise heating

Electric fires are better at converting electricity into heat, allowing precise temperatures all year. Advanced models have heat settings from 1KW to over 2KW, making them ideal for supplemental heat. You can control them from an app, a smart home device like Alexa, or a remote control.

You can also enjoy the visual appeal of the flames to set the mood or simply add a touch of ambience to your living space without turning on the heat all year round. Plus, with remote control access, you can easily adjust the flame, lighting, and fuel bed colours and brightness to create the perfect setting.
