Choosing an Electric Fireplace Wall Mount

The most effective electric fireplace wall mount uses infrared Quartz to provide warmth to rooms, and offers a wide range of display options, including traditional logs and smooth stones, as well as glass media. It also uses LED technology to create the flame effect and includes remote control operation.
Easy to install
A fireplace can be a stunning addition to your home and enhance the interior. It isn't easy to put in an electric fireplace if you're not an electrician. A wall mount electric fire is simple to set up. It's the ideal choice for homeowners looking to bring warmth and comfort to their home, but don't want to pay for an installation by a professional.
Before you begin installing your electric fireplace, be sure that you review the owner's guide. The manual will provide specific instructions for framing the unit, securing it and wiring. Check the clearances for the unit to ensure that it is in compliance with local codes.
Once you've got a clear understanding of the requirements, it's time to prepare the installation area. Utilize a stud finder to locate all the studs in the space where you're planning to install your fireplace. Mark the locations of each stud using an object or tape. You should hang the fireplace in front each stud. If this isn't possible because of space limitations, you can use strong screws for drywall to support brackets that do not connect with the studs.
Most electric fireplaces use a cord that connects to an outlet. The cord is usually hidden behind a TV stand or nearby bookcase. The cord should be hidden since it could pose a fire risk if left exposed. If you can you can run the cord under carpeting or paint it to match the wall color.
You can connect to an existing wall outlet if you prefer, but it's better to create a dedicated circuit through your home's electrical service panel. This will prevent the possibility of an appliance or fireplace triggering the circuit. If you don't have a separate circuit for your fireplace, an electrician can upgrade the electrical system to supply it with the additional power needed.

Be aware of the amount of heat produced when selecting a fireplace for your wall. The basic models can warm a small space, but you may need an even more powerful model for larger rooms. Most manufacturers offer calculators to help you select the best model for your needs.
Certain models come with a remote control that can be used to control the fireplace or alter the settings. Other models can be operated with the buttons on the unit or via a touchscreen interface.
