Built-in Electric Fireplace Insert - A Gas Fireplace Alternative

August 13th, 2007 by Rick

More and more builders and homeowners are choosing built-in electric fireplace inserts instead of gas fireplaces for several good reasons:

  • Simple installation - requires only a shallow built-in frame and household current (either 120 or 220v depending on desired heat output)
  • No venting - unlike wood or gas fireplaces, electric fireplaces do not require expensive venting provisions.
  • It’s green! - no wood or gas emission and electricity usage is minimal
  • Looks Great - technology improvements coupled with more realistic electric log sets, working bi-fold doors and pull screens

The pictures below really show how terrific the newest electric fireplace inserts look in a variety of installations. The units shown are made by Classic Flame. Each of these units are self-trimming and are serviceable from the front. We also offer a complete selection of Dimplex units including a two sided package.
