Hiding the cord

Nothing spoils a new fireplace like a cord hanging down the wall. The fix depends on the unit and the wall: an outlet placed behind the unit, a cord routed inside the recess, or a path the manual allows through a firebox side. The last step is a check that the cord is not pinched once the unit is pushed home.

Manuals set limits on how cords may run, and we follow them, keeping cords out from under rugs and away from pinch points. Where an outlet has to move, an electrician moves it. Want a clean, cord-free look for a fireplace in Crawford? Phone (904) 920-5495 and book a free planning visit.

Hanging a wall-mounted unit level

A wall-mounted electric fireplace hangs on a bracket supplied with the unit. The manual says how that bracket must be fastened, usually into studs or with anchors it approves, and the unit's weight decides how much holding power is needed.

We find the studs, mark the height you want within the manual's clearances, and fasten the bracket level. The unit is hung, checked for level again and secured as the manual shows. A fireplace that tilts even slightly shows it in the flame effect, so level is checked at more than one point. We also check the wall surface for flatness, since a bowed wall can leave a gap behind one side of the unit.

Closing the flue above an insert

With an electric insert in place, the chimney above has no job, and an open flue lets room air out and outside air, moisture and drafts in around the insert. So the flue is closed.

The method depends on the fireplace. The existing damper can be sealed shut, or a sealing damper can be fitted at the top of the chimney. Either way the chimney keeps its cap, so rain stays out. The method is written on the estimate, because it has to be reversed if the fireplace ever burns wood again. A closed flue also keeps rain that gets past the cap from reaching the insert.

Running the flame without the heat

Many electric fireplaces let you run the flame effect with the heater off. The flame is made by lights shining through a moving rod or a programmed pattern, and it uses far less power than the heater.

That makes the fireplace useful on evenings when heat is not wanted. At handover we show you the settings on your unit and remote: flame only, heat only and both together, plus any brightness and speed controls. Knowing them from the start saves a call later. Some units also have separate ember-bed lighting and color settings, which we run through with you.

Electric fireplace questions from Crawford

Can you install a unit I already bought?

Yes. Many of our installs are units the owner has chosen. The model number tells us what the manual requires, so share it before the visit.

Can the fireplace go on the same wall as my television?

Often, within the clearances the manual gives for objects near the heater outlet. We check which way your model blows its heat and lay out the wall so both fit.
