The 'flame only' setting means you can enjoy the hypnotic sway of the flames without having to turn up the heating, perfect for rooms that don't require the most heat.
Inset vs. wall-hung
Wall-mounted and inset wall-mounted electric fireplaces are two of the most popular designs. Inset models, like the Vision Futura 1500 or the Evonic Halo 1500 XT, are built into the wall. They offer an elegant flush finish, blending in with the walls surrounding it to create a neat appearance. Inset electric fireplaces are more costly and require an opening already in place.
The most efficient electric media wall fires, like the Hall and Elgin Pryzm Arteon 3, are wall-hung. They are easy to set up and don't require an existing opening in the wall because they're not recessed into it. They are more adaptable than inset electric fires with some models featuring an array of designs and trims to fit your decor. Despite this wall-hung models may appear to be a bit out of the wall, which means they're not suitable for every room. They can also restrict the flow of air in smaller rooms because they'll likely spread heat upwards instead of across the room.

Electric fires can be the perfect finishing touch for an entertainment wall. They create an element of interest that is captivating and a joy to be in front of. Modern fires are packed with plenty of modern features to improve your home with, including an exclusive flame effect that saves energy and a cooling air blowing feature which is ideal for hot summer nights.
A media wall is a space dedicated to your entertainment system. It could be a TV, sound system or other equipment that you use frequently. This type of space is a contemporary response to the traditional entertainment centres of the past. They can give a sleek and organized look while making floor space available in the room.
Modern electric fires for media walls are affixed to the wall and can be either inset or freestanding depending on the design you pick. An inset fire is designed to be inserted partially into the fireplace opening which makes it much easier to install and looks more unified in your living spaces. Freestanding fires like the Gallery Collection Hopton and Dimplex Danville are ideal for those who don't have a fireplace recess. They can be moved between rooms for flexibility.
No matter which installation method you choose, you should always place the fire near a power socket to ensure you can connect the device and test it before fitting. In accordance with the guidelines, you'll need to keep the fire away from flammable material.
Remember that the majority of electric fireplaces for media wall have a limited output of heat, and are best used to supplement your central heating system. They are not suitable for heating large spaces, and can only warm a room. Some models include a handy remote with multiple heating settings and backlighting options to suit your mood or the ambience.
