How much does it cost to run an electric fireplace?

At just pennies a day, modern electric fireplaces are much cheaper than all other forms of heating. For comparison, electric wall fireplaces cost approximately 70% less to operate than a gas fireplace. Electric fireplaces can also be used as part of a supplemental zone heating strategy. Your built in electric fireplace insert can heat the room you’re currently using as opposed to raising your home’s central thermostat to heat every room. This helps decrease your monthly heating bill by at least 20-40%.

Are electric fireplaces efficient?

Electric fireplaces keep the heat where you need it. Traditional heating sources warm the entire house regardless of the room usage. Built in electric fireplace inserts allow you to zone heat by warming the room(s) you are using without having to turn up the central thermostat. This significantly reduces energy waste. Additionally, indoor electric fireplaces heat a room more efficiently than wood-burning fireplaces. This is because much of the heat produced in a wood-burning fireplace is lost through the chimney whereas indoor electric fireplaces are vent-free keeping the heat in the room.

Are electric fireplaces safe?

Electric fireplaces are the safest fire option available. While the flames may look real they are simply a beautiful illusion of light. In fact, our electric fireplaces are cool to the touch, making them a great choice for busy commercial spaces or families with children or pets.
