Floor Standing Electric Fire

A floor Free Standing Electric Fires Small electric fire is a fireplace that sits on the ground instead of being built into a wall. All of them have the appearance of flames while producing heat. They are able to be used with a log, coal or modern pebble fuel bed.

Some also have an option for remote control that is perfect for those who want to control the settings from a distance. They are certified by the CSA and are safe to use with children in the room.

Features

Freestanding electric fires offer traditional style that can improve the look of any room. They are easy to install and take up a small amount of space. There are a variety of styles to pick from and the majority of them have an all-black surround to create a stunning effect. Select a coal, log or pebble effect fuel bed for an authentic feeling.

Alternately, you can opt for a built-in electric fire which can be integrated into your fireplace mantel. They are a much more durable option than wall-mounted units and permit you to put additional storage furniture beneath the unit, like sideboard cabinets or credenzas. They are available in a variety of finishes that will suit any decor. Some even come with a mirrored or glass panel for a modern look.

Designed to fit into your fireplace A fireplace insert with an electric component is the perfect way to update your home's design without spending too much money. They're also a great option to get a more efficient heating solution because they don't require chimneys or vents, instead plugging directly into the wall for the possibility of heating up to 4700 BTUs.

Installation

If you're looking to find a stylish, affordable and practical way of adding a fireplace to your home without the need for a chimney or flue, a freestanding electric fireplace could be the ideal choice. If you're looking to warm up your living space or to add a touch of home to your guest bedroom, there's an excellent selection of electric fires to pick from at Direct Fireplaces.

We have a variety of electric fires that are both contemporary and traditional and from top brands such as Be Modern, Dimplex, and Celsi. All of our products come with a complete warranty and finance is available.

You'll surely find the perfect electric fire for your home thanks to our wide range of sizes and finishes. We also have a wide assortment of accessories, including hearths and back panels, so you can personalize your fireplace.

Wall-mounted electric fires are becoming more popular as a flexible and easy way of adding an attractive accent to your home. Installing them is easy because they don't require a chimney or flue. However, it's important to read the instructions and have the necessary tools on the premises.

Depending on which model you choose It may be necessary to drill holes into your wall and install a bracket. It is a good idea to utilize a spirit level and a stud finder before drilling to ensure you're not drilling into anything that could be of importance.

After you have installed the wall bracket, it's time to install your fire. This can either be done by placing the fire inside the firebox and then attaching it onto the bracket, or you may need to fit the screen and firebox as a complete unit. If you are not confident doing this yourself, we recommend hiring an electrician.

Enjoy your new fire when you're done! Remember, always connect your electric fire to a dedicated power socket rather than using an extension cable. This will allow you to ensure the safety of your electric fire and avoid future issues with your electrical supply.

Flames

There are a variety of flame options for freestanding electric fires freestanding fireplaces that suit your interior design. Certain electric fires utilize chemical mixtures that are emitted from a single point, and lacks the chaotic appearance of log flames made of wood. Others are built on LED technology that makes the flames appear real and a flurry of unpredictable. MagikFlame utilizes a brand new technology called Hybrid FX, which cycle the flames, ember bed and accent lighting through a spectrum of colors to create an enthralling experience.

To make things even more flexible Many models are available in right-corner, left-corner or three-sided bay designs to fit various installation. You can also find wall-mounted models that are single-sided, and work well as electric fireplaces that are either partially or fully recessible. These are great for quick and simple installation.

Fuel bed

The fuel bed associated with an electric floor-standing fire is the material that is flammable that surrounds the flames and is responsible for their combustion. The fuel bed is made of a variety of materials, such as real coals or log effect. It can also be customized to complement your design. The fuel bed is affected by several factors, including its size, shape, and structure. These can have a significant impact on the flames.

Anderson (1964) in a study on pine needle fuel beds, observed that fire spread rates were independent of the depth of the fuel over a threshold of 0.0762m (with positive correlation below this threshold). This observation was in accordance with earlier observations made by Catchpole and other researchers, as well observations from the extensive field on fire behavior studies that Rothermel is the leader of.

However the structure of natural fuel beds in wildland environments is extremely complex, and their characteristics vary significantly over time and across space. In an effort to recognize this variation to better understand this, the Fuel Characteristic Classification System (FCCS) was developed to categorize fuelbeds and identify the potential impact they have on fire behavior. Fuelbeds classified by FCCS are grouped into six strata that include: shrubs, canopy, nonwoody fuels woody fuels litter-lichen-moss. The attributes resulting from the Consume 4.2 calculator that is integrated into the FFT software are helpful for mapping fuelbeds. They can also be used as inputs to models for fire behaviour prediction.

For each of the six types of fuelbeds An analysis of dimensionality was performed in order to correlate the rate of spread of fire under wind and no-wind conditions. This led to the development of dimensionless groups based on each of the variables: dimensionless spread rate, dimensionless fuel particle sizes and moisture content dimensions dimensionless fuel bed density or fuel loading density, and dimensions dimensionless wind speed. The dimensionless correlations based on the groups generated correlations between the rate of spread of fire with wind and no-wind situations fairly consistently. However it is important to keep in mind that these correlations were based upon experimental data that covered only the smallest portion of the natural fuel types found in wildland environments.
