Add Warmth and Ambiance to Your Home With a Free Standing Electric Fire

Add extra warmth and ambience to your home by installing an electric fire that is freestanding. These fires do not require ventilation, and require only a power source.

This CSA-certified model features various temperature settings with an auto-shutoff function, and is cool to the touch on its top. It does not have a tip-over shutdown or overheat protection.

Safety

Freestanding electric fireplaces are one of the safest types of heat supplemental to homeowners. They don't release carbon dioxide or ignite flammable materials like wood-burning stoves. Additionally, they do not release harmful dust and fumes that could cause asthma or worsen respiratory issues in people with chronic illnesses like asthma or bronchitis.

Electric fireplaces also remove the requirement for regular maintenance and cleaning, as there is no burning of fuel or wood or the resulting smoke and ash. In fact, they do not produce byproducts of combustion that can create environmental hazards in the home, such as creosote or soot.

Instead of a real flame free-standing electric fireplaces use what are called "flame effects" to mimic the look of a fireplace. This method uses LED lights and mirrors to create motion and an appearance that is realistic. Some models also incorporate water vapor to simulate the appearance of smoke.

Some models allow you to adjust the flame's heat and intensity with controls on the device itself, which could be either buttons or knobs. Some models, like "smart" models can be controlled using an app on your smartphone or via voice commands. Certain models have a remote that allows you to control the fireplace from a distance.

While electric fireplaces are generally safe, it's essential to follow the standard safety guidelines when using any heater within the home. Keep these units at a safe distance from any flammable material, such as curtains or blankets. Avoid operating them near water and make sure they're not connected to extension cords or surge protection. It is also important to unplug the electric fireplaces when they are not in use and to regularly check for any damage.

This CSA-certified electric fire place is a fashionable and versatile piece of furniture that will enhance your living room. It includes a remote and five different heating settings to suit your ease. It has a timer, and also an overheat protection and a safety feature. During our tests, we found it to be cool to the touch and strong enough to avoid tipping, even when the fire was burning.

Convenience

Free standing electric fires don't emit harmful gases like traditional wood or gas fires. They generate radiant heat which directly heats objects and people in the room. They are less energy-intensive and will not increase your electric bills by as much. They don't emit smoke or other harmful substances, which can cause allergic reactions or cause your home to smell like an open fireplace.

Electric fires are also easy to use. You only need an outlet for power to get started. You can control heating and 'flames" by turning on your fireplace or via remote. Many Dimplex models offer smart heating and "flames" technology that automatically adjusts settings to create the ideal temperature in your room.

Most importantly,, electric fires are safer for homes with children or pets. When burning gas or wood toxic fumes could be released when not used correctly. But, since there's no flame in an electric fire, the fire is cool to the touch and doesn't give off any harmful fumes.

There's also no need to construct an chimney, hire a professional installer or install expensive flue systems that are fitted with an electric fireplace. Connect the fireplace to any standard wall outlet to start using it. Additionally, many models we offer are made of durable, sturdy furniture that can withstand the demands of daily use. They're CSA-certified and include overload protection for safety, plus a tip-over shutoff feature, as well as a timer which automatically shuts off the fire after a certain amount of time.

Our selection of freestanding electric fires offers an array of design choices, ranging from contemporary to traditional. They can add warmth and comfort to any space. Create the appearance of a stove made of solid fuel with a log or coal fuel bed, or opt for a contemporary design using a coloured crystal or pebble fuel bed. We even have some that can be incorporated into the wall to save the floor space.

Style

If you like the look of a fireplace in your home but are worried about the expense and maintenance obligations of a gas or wood burning fireplace, consider an electric freestanding fire. There are a variety of designs of freestanding electric fireplaces available to choose from, so finding one that will suit your needs and decor is simple.

They are usually more compact than traditional fireplaces, and frequently resemble an elegant space heater. They often include a mantel, and can be set up on an unfinished wall or in the corner of a room. Infrared or radiant heating is used to heat objects and people directly, instead of circulating heated air around the room. They are also energy efficient, consuming up to 90 percent less electricity than a traditional fireplace.

A freestanding electric fireplace heater electric fireplace can be the focal point of your room and can enhance its style. Certain models have a more modern and contemporary appearance, while others have a classic design that will be a good fit with all designs. Some models can even be built into the wall to give it a more elegant appearance.

There are also electric fireplaces that are designed to be installed inside your existing fireplace. This is an excellent option for older homes with an old masonry fireplace that you would like to update. Electric fire inserts are a great way to upgrade your fireplace. Some come with the option of pebble or crystal fuel beds so that you can customize the appearance to fit your decor.

Another advantage of freestanding electric fireplace heater electric fireplaces is the fact that there is no need for vents or chimneys. They are a convenient and safe alternative to gas or wood fireplace.

Wildland fuel characteristics are extremely variable over time and space, and can affect fire behaviour and impacts. Fuel Characteristic Classification System, a national system for mapping fuels designed to capture the complexity of wildland fuels, was developed. FCCS reference fuelbeds have been created using published literature, fuels photos and other data sets. They are preloaded in the LANDFIRE Fuels and Fire Tools (FFT) application.

FCCS fuel models are organized into six categories: canopy, woody fuels and shrubs, nonwoody fuels, and litter-lichen-moss. For each category the model determines a number of qualitative and quantitative parameters that define the capacity of fire to spread across the fuel bed.

The FB10 fuel type, for instance is a stand that has a mixture of live herbaceous fuels and timber understory fuels, and the least amount of dead vegetation. This is primarily limbwood of 3 inches or more. Crown fires and spotting occur frequently in this fuel type. They can range from a dynamic shift of herbaceous load between live and dead herbaceous fuels, to a more consistent transfer of fine dead fuels among grasses, litter, and shrubs. The spread rate is moderate to low and flame length is moderate.

The Rothermel fuel model is extensively used to predict spread rates in conditions of quiescence (no wind, no slope). The model underpredicts the spread rate of fuel beds that are compressed. Further investigation is needed to better understand the connection between the fuel structure and flame propagation. This is a critical step, since the Rothermel model's numerator (energy released from unburned fuel), and denominator(fuel bed surface area), are strongly related to the spread of fire. This is a key knowledge that can improve the model's performance.
