Fireplace Suites - The Complete Package

A fireplace suite is the complete package; it includes a surround/mantelpiece, hearth and fire all working together to create the centrepiece of your home. Evolution Fires' range of suites are perfect for living rooms, extensions and bedrooms but they also work well in bathrooms for the authentic flame ambience.

Hotels with fireplaces offer an innate feeling of luxury that orchestrates warm memories and influences customer returning. Discover how you can add this feel to your hotel property.

The hearth

The hearth is a flat platform that is located at the bottom of a fireplace. It is designed to protect the floor and wall from embers or heat damage. It is typically constructed of non-combustible materials such as stone or brick and can extend anywhere from 16 to 18 inches in front of the firebox. Electric fireplaces are typically without a hearth.

As a general rule, fireplace suites consist of four main components; an inset fire (either gas or electric fireplace suites near me), a surround/mantelpiece, a back panel and the hearth. These elements are grouped together to create a focal point that will enhance the appearance of your home more welcoming. Suites are perfect for anyone who wants to give their home a new look and revamp it.

Suites come in a wide variety of styles, finishes and colours that can be matched to any decor. There are also a variety of options for the kind of fire, flame effect and heating output. Conventional gas-fueled fires are the perfect option for homes with a chimney, while balanced flue fires are a viable alternative that can be used safely in properties without a chimney.

Electric fireplace suites can be a great choice for those looking to add a focal point to their living space without the need to install traditional wood or gas fire. These suites produce their own heat through a process called convection which draws in cool air and warms it up before venting out into the room. They do not emit carbon monoxide, which is harmful to breathe in.

The back panel

A fireplace back panel is situated at the back of the fireplace opening. It assists in creating an 'n-shaped' design with the mantelpiece, surround and inset fire. It can be constructed from several materials that resist heat, including stone, granite and slate.

The majority of fireplace suites have back panels as part of an all-in-one solution that includes a surround, mantelpiece and inset fire appliance. This can save you time and effort during installation because the components are designed to be able to fit seamlessly.

There are also separate back panels that can be purchased which are perfect for situations when you're replacing a gas or electric fireplace and want to upgrade the appearance of the existing chimney breast without having to remove it. Back panels are available in a variety of styles and materials so you can pick the one that is suitable for your home.

In addition to being stylish, back panels are usually constructed from a heat-resistant material which is crucial to shield your floors and walls from the effects of your fireplace suite. This is especially true if you opt for gas or a solid fuel fireplace suite as they will produce a significant amount of heat that could be transferred to nearby areas through the wall and ceiling.

A back panel can help to tie together your entire fireplace suite particularly if you're opting for a more modern design. This stunning flamerite Ador electric fireplace, for example, comes with a curved flame picture that enhances the effect of the fire. This suite, when paired with an open-fronted modern electric fire, will create a stunning focal point in any dining room, living room or extension.

The surround/mantelpiece

They can be installed on the wall in a straight line creating an amazing focal point. They are perfect for homes with a limited space or without a chimney or flue.

The fire

The fire is the centerpiece of any fireplace set, but it doesn't have to be a wood-burning fireplace. There are many other alternatives available, such as gas and electric. It's important to choose a design that fits your space and needs. You can also select the larger model or fireplace with a larger panel to frame the fire surround suites and create a stunning focal point in your room.

Take into consideration how much the amount of heat your home will require when choosing a fireplace set. It will be determined by a few factors, including the amount of heat produced by the fireplace as well as the current rates for electricity, and how long you plan to use it each day. To determine this, you must divide the wattage of the fireplace by the energy rate of your electricity provider per kilowatt hour.

The mantelpiece and surround of your fireplace can also have a major effect on the way it appears. Some have intricate designs that add an extra layer of visual interest to the room while others are more subtle and blends in with all styles of interiors. You can find a set with an LED glow log to create the illusion of a fireplace without using any fuel.

When it comes to fire places there are four kinds of wood (nice to feel and view but less efficient; emits air pollutants like particulate matter, carbon monoxide and nitrogen dioxide); gas (more efficient in terms of energy, but still releases carbon monoxide; burns natural or synthetic logs) and electric (uses an electric coil and fan system that doesn't release dangerous gases, very economical and comfortable). Choose a fireplace suite with the highest BTU rating to get the best results. This will warm your home faster and provide a more realistic electric fire suites flame effect.
