Floor Standing Electric Fire
A floor-standing electric fire is a fireplace which sits on the ground instead of being constructed into walls. They all create the illusion of flames, while also producing heat and they can be used with a coal or log effect fuel bed, or a modern pebble effect.
Certain models come with the option of a remote control that allows you to adjust the settings from an extended distance. They are CSA-certified and safe for use with children in the room.
Features
Freestanding electric fireplaces have traditional style that can enhance the appearance of any room. They require little space and are simple to install. There are a variety of designs to choose from, with the majority with a black stove cover to create a striking look. Select a coal or log effect fuel bed to give the authentic feel, or opt for a coloured pebble effect to change things up.
You can also choose to have an electric fire built into your fireplace mantel. They provide a longer-lasting solution than wall-mounted options and permit additional storage furniture like sideboard cabinets or credenzas that can be placed underneath the fireplace. They are available in a variety of finishes that can be matched to any style and offer a glass panel or mirrored finish to give a more modern appearance.
Electric inserts are the perfect option to improve any design in your home without spending a large amount of money. Fireplaces And Stove to get a more efficient heating solution because they don't require chimneys or vents instead, plugging directly into the wall for an energy output of up to 4700 BTUs.
Installation
A freestanding electric fireplace is a great option if you want to add a fireplace without a chimney. Whether you're after something to warm up your living space or add a homely touch to your guest bedroom, there's a great choice of electric fires to choose from at Direct Fireplaces.
We offer a wide selection of electric fires, both traditional and contemporary, from leading brands like Be Modern, Dimplex, and Celsi. All of our products come with a full warranty and finance is available.
You'll be able to you'll find the perfect electric fireplace for your home thanks to our wide range of sizes and finishes. We also have a wide selection of accessories like hearths and back panels, to allow you to personalize your fireplace to suit your needs.
Electric wall-mounted fireplaces are a great way to add a unique feature to your home. They are simple to install and can be used for a variety of purposes. As they don't require a flue or chimney, installing them is relatively simple, but it's important to follow the manufacturer's guidelines and have a few basic tools at hand.
Depending on the model you choose, you may need to drill holes into your wall and then fix the wall bracket to. It's a good idea utilize a spirit level and a stud finder prior to drilling, to make sure you're not drilling into anything that could be of importance.
Once you have the wall bracket installed It's time to install your fire. You can either put the fire inside the firebox and then secure it to the bracket or you can install the firebox with the screen in a single unit. If you are not confident doing this on your own, we recommend hiring an electrician.
Enjoy your new flame when you're done! Make sure to connect your electric fireplace to an appropriate power socket instead of an extension cable. This will ensure that your fire is secure and will help prevent any issues with your electricity supply in the future.
Flames
There are a range of flame options for freestanding electric fireplaces to suit your interior design. Some utilize a chemical mix that rises from one point, but do not have the chaotic appearance of real wood log flames while others are built on cutting-edge LED technology which gives the flames lifelike movement and unpredictability. MagikFlame makes use of a new invention called Hybrid-FX, which reverberates the flames, ember bed and accent lighting through a rainbow of colors to create an enthralling experience.
For even more flexibility There are models available in right-corner, left-corner or three-sided bay designs to suit a variety of configurations. There are also single-sided wall mounted models that can be used as partially or built-in electric fireplaces. They are ideal for installation that is quick and simple.
Fuel bed
The fuel bed is the flammable substance surrounding the flames of a floor-standing electric fire and is responsible for the combustion. The fuel bed is constructed from a variety of materials, such as real coals or log effect. It can also be modified to fit your design. There are a variety of factors that affect the shape of the fuel bed, such as its shape, size and structure, which can greatly affect the combustion of the flames.
In the study of pine needle fuel beds, Anderson (1964) observed that the spread rate of fire was independent of the depth of the fuel over a threshold of 0.0762 meters (with a positive relationship below this depth threshold). This observation was in accordance with earlier observations made by Catchpole and other researchers, as well observations from the vast field of fire behavior research that Rothermel is the leader of.
The structure of fuel beds in wildland areas is complicated and their characteristics change over time and place. In an effort to recognize this variation the Fuel Characteristic Classification System (FCCS) was created to categorize fuelbeds and identify their potential impacts on fire behavior. FCCS fuelbeds are categorized into six strata: canopy, shrubs nonwoody fuels fuels and litter-lichen-moss. The attributes summarized by Consume 4.2 which is embedded in the FFT software, are helpful to map fuelbeds. They can be incorporated into models for fire behaviour predictions.
For each of the six types, a dimensional analysis was conducted to compare the rate of spread of fire under wind and non-wind conditions. This led to the creation of dimensionless groups for each of the pertinent 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. Dimensionless correlations using the resulting groups were able to correlate the spread rate of fire in wind and non-wind conditions quite reliably. It is important to remember that these correlations were based only on research data that included a limited number of fuel types found in natural forests that are found in wildland areas.
