Bet you could not have guessed the fastest growing fireplace category before reading the title above! Believe it or not electric fireplaces are “on fire”. The reasons for this growth are simple:

• Installation is easy, fast and inexpensive – all you need is regular household 120v current (in some built-in models you may choose to use 220v for higher heat output).
• Works for remodel or new construction whether you choose a built-in model, cabinet mantel, or insert.
• Operate the flame and heat independently.
• Low operating cost – uses very little electricity (as little as 3¢ per hour)

The most popular brands are Dimplex and Classic Flame, but Vermont Castings and Arrow Flame have some niche products that we like very much. For additional selections, see ElectricFireplacesDirect.com
