A White Log Burner Electric Brings the Warmth of a Wood Burning Stove Into Your Home
White electric log burners bring the look of genuine wood burning stoves into your home, without the mess and dangers. They also require less maintenance. These freestanding fires don’t require a chimney and plug straight in to your mains to make it easy to set up.
Many models come with striking flame effects and glowing embers. These can be enhanced by adjusting the lighting to various colours and brightness levels.
Realistic flames
There are a myriad of options for those who want to purchase an electric fireplace that appears authentic. Some electric fireplaces come with 3D flame effects that utilize layers of effects and projected images to create illusions of depth and hight. Certain models come with customizable backgrounds, a variety of colour settings and can be customised to fit your style. Other features include popping and crackling wood sounds, which are a true pine scent, and two heat settings that can be controlled thermostatically.
Some electric stoves, such as the popular Gazco Huntingdon is designed to resemble the look of a log burning gas stove. They feature an attractive fuel bed that is attractive and made of wood that is textured. The fire itself is created using Gazco’s unique VeriFlame technology, which gives you an extremely realistic log-effect as well as the option of different uplighting colors for an authentic look and feel.
A flat-screen electric fireplace that is mounted on the wall, like the GreatCo 50″ Gallery Linear Electric Fireplace that uses prism flames to create visually stunning display is another option. The colours of the flames are stunning, and you can adjust the uplighting to suit your decor.
Many of our electric fires offer the option of switching out the log-effect fuel bed for crystal ice-effect. This gives you the opportunity to create a new appearance without altering the interior design of your home and also helps with cleaning and maintenance.
We also have a variety of built-in and inset electric fires that are designed to be inset into the wall to create a flush finish with no need for an additional mantelpiece or chimney stack. Suites such as the Celsi Ultiflame VR Adour Aleesia Illuminator Evonic 900 GF, and the Gazco eReflex 55R allow you to maximize the floor space and create an impressive visual centrepiece.
Make sure you plug in your new electric fireplace and test it all before you start. If you’re installing the fire into a wall-mounted electric fireplace, or an inset electric fireplace be sure that there is sufficient ventilation around it. This will help prevent overheating, and possible damage to your home. Also, keep in mind that overhead or canopy accent lighting can wash out electric flame effects, so it’s recommended to keep these switched off or at a low level.
