Floor Standing Electric Fire

The floor-standing electric fireplace is one which stands on the ground instead of being built into a brick wall. They all give the appearance of flames, while also producing heat. They can be used with a coal or log effect fuel bed, or a contemporary pebble effect.

Some also have remote controls, which is ideal for those who want to control the settings from a distance. They are approved by the CSA and safe to use with children in the room.

Here are some examples of

Electric fires that stand alone fireplace alone can add a classic aesthetic to any room. They are easy to install and take up little space. There are a variety of styles to pick from and most of them feature a black surround to create a striking appearance. Select a coal or log effect fuel bed to enhance the authentic look or choose colored pebbles to change things up.

You can also choose to install an electric fire inside your fireplace mantel. They offer a more durable alternative to wall-mounted models and also allow for additional storage furniture like sideboard cabinets or credenzas that can be placed underneath the fireplace. They are available in a variety of styles that will fit into any decor. Some are even available with a mirrored or glass panel finish for a modern style.

Electric inserts are a great way to upgrade any interior design without spending a lot of money. They're also a great option to get a more efficient heating solution because they don't require chimneys or vents and instead plug directly into the wall to provide an energy output of up to 4700 BTUs.

Installation

If you're looking to find a stylish cost-effective and practical method of adding a fireplace your home without the necessity of a chimney or flue, a freestanding electric fireplace could be the ideal choice. Direct Fireplaces offers a wide selection of electric fires that can be used to heat your living room, or to add a warm touch to your guest room.

We offer a range of traditional and contemporary electric fires from the top brands that include Be Modern, Dimplex and Celsi. All of our products are covered by a comprehensive guarantee and financing options are also available.

With a wide range of sizes and finishes, you're sure to find the perfect electric fireplace for your home. We also have a wide collection of accessories, including back panels and hearths, so you can pick the perfect finishing touch for your fireplace.

Wall-mounted electric fires are becoming popular as a multi-purpose and easy method of adding an attractive addition to your home. Installing them is easy since they don't require a chimney or flue. But, it's crucial to read the instructions and have some essential tools on the premises.

Depending on which model you select, it may be necessary to drill holes into your wall to install a bracket. It is a good idea to use a spirit level and a stud finder before drilling to ensure you're not drilling into anything important.

Once you have put up the wall bracket, it's time to mount your fire. This can either be done by putting the fire in the firebox and then attaching it to the bracket or you may have to install the screen and firebox as a complete unit. If you're not sure about doing it yourself we suggest hiring an electrician.

When you're finished you can sit back and enjoy your new fire! Always plug your electric fireplace into an appropriate socket rather than using an extension cord. This will ensure that your fire is safe and it'll help to prevent any issues with your power supply in the future.

Flames

freestanding electric fire with remote Control electric fires offer different flame styles to match your style of interior. Some use a chemical mix that rises from a point, and do not have the chaotic appearance of real wood log flames, while others are built on state-of-the-art LED technology which gives the flames lifelike motion and unpredictable. MagikFlame's Hybrid FX technology offers an immersive experience through the cycling of the flames, accent lighting and ember bed through a rainbow-like spectrum of colors.

For even more flexibility There are models available in left-corner, right-corner or three-sided bay configurations to suit various configurations. You can also find single-sided wall-mounted models that can be used as partially or built-in electric fireplaces. These are great for quick and easy installation.

Fuel bed

The fuel bed associated with a floor standing electric fire is the flammable material that surrounds the flames and is responsible for their combustion. The fuel bed is made up of a variety of materials such as log effect or real coals that can be adapted to match your decor. The fuel bed is influenced by a variety of factors, including its shape, size, and structure. They can have a significant impact on the flames.

Anderson (1964), in a study of pine needle fuel beds, discovered that fire spread rates were independent of fuel depth above a threshold of 0.0762m (with positive correlation below this threshold). This observation agreed with earlier observations made in crib fire experiments conducted by Catchpole and others and observations from the extensive field of fire behaviour studies of which Rothermel is the most well-known.

The structure of the fuel beds in wildland areas is a complex system and their characteristics change with time and place. Fuel Characteristic Classification System was developed in order to capture this variation and determine the potential effects of fuelbeds on fire behavior. FCCS fuelbeds are organized into six distinct strata, including canopy, shrubs, nonwoody fuels, woody fuels, and litter-lichen-moss. The resulting attributes summarized by the Consume 4.2 calculator that is integrated into the FFT software are useful for mapping fuelbeds. They can also be used as input to models for predicting fire behaviour.

For each of the six types of fuelbeds An analysis of dimensionality was performed in order to compare the rate of spread of fire under wind and no-wind conditions. This resulted in the generation of dimensionless groups for each of the relevant variables that include dimensionless spread rate of fire and dimensionless size of the fuel particle and moisture content, dimensionless fuel bed depth or fuel loading density, and dimensionless wind speed and angle of inclination. The dimensionless correlations based upon the groups produced correlations between the rate of spread of fire with wind and no-wind situations fairly consistently. However it is important to keep in mind that these correlations were based upon experimental data that only covered a very small portion of the natural fuel types that are found in wildland environments.
