Who can install an electric fire?

Unlike a traditional wood or gas fire, electric fires do not need to be installed by a qualified fitter, and can be installed by you or a regular tradesman. Simply plug in, switch on and enjoy the flames. (You may need a qualified electrician to move or install a new socket if required).

Do electric fires require a chimney or flue?

No, electric fires do not need an expensive chimney or flue, making them ideal for any property type or room. Being flueless also eliminates ongoing maintenance costs.

Do electric fires produce heat?

Yes, most electric fires and stoves can produce up to 2kW of heat if required. Running your electric fire on ‘flame only’ allows you to enjoy your fire year round without the heat. Typical running costs of an electric fire range from 0.5p per hour for ‘flame only’ to around 60p per hour on maximum heat output 

Are electric fires safe?
