Floor free standing electric fires small Electric Fire

A floor-standing electric fireplace Suites freestanding fireplace is a fireplace that stands on the ground, rather than being installed into the wall. They all create the illusion of flame while producing heat and they can be utilized with a coal or log effect fuel bed, or a contemporary pebble effect.

Certain models come with an remote control that lets you to adjust the settings from a distance. They are CSA certified and safe to use in rooms with children.

Features

Electric fires that stand alone can add a classic aesthetic to any room. They require little space and are easy to install. There are a variety of styles available to choose from and most of them feature an all-black surround to create a stunning effect. Choose a log or coal effect fuel bed to give the authentic feel or go for the pebble effect in a color to spice things up.

Alternately, you can opt for a built-in electric fire that can be integrated into your fireplace mantel. They offer a more durable alternative to wall-mounted models and permit additional storage furniture such as sideboard cabinets or credenzas that can be placed below the fireplace. They are available in a variety of finishes that will suit any style. Some come with a mirrored or glass panel finishes for a contemporary appearance.

Electric inserts are the perfect way to upgrade any interior design without spending a large amount of money. They are also an energy-efficient way to heat your home, since they don't require a chimney or vents. Instead, they plug directly into the wall and produce up to 4700 BTUs of heat.

Installation

A freestanding electric fireplace is a great option if you want to create a fireplace without chimney. If you're looking to warm your living room or add a homely touch to your guest bedroom, there's a wide selection of electric fires to pick from at Direct Fireplaces.

We offer a broad selection of electric fires that are both contemporary and traditional, from leading brands like Be Modern, Dimplex, and Celsi. All of our products are backed by a complete guarantee, and finance options are available.

With a variety of sizes and finishes, you're sure to find the ideal electric fireplace for your home. We also have a broad range of accessories such as hearths and back panel so you can customize your fireplace.

Wall-mounted electric fires are becoming more popular as a versatile and simple way to add an attractive feature to your home. Installing them is easy because they don't require a chimney or flue. However, it's essential to follow the directions and have the right tools at hand.

Depending on the model you choose depending on the model you choose, you may need to drill holes in your wall and install a bracket. Before drilling, it's a great idea to use a stud finder and a spirit level to ensure that you're not drilling into something that is crucial.

Once you have the wall bracket set now is the time to put in your fire. You can either put the fire in the box and then connect it to the bracket, or you can put the firebox in place with the screen as a complete unit. If you're not confident doing this on your own we suggest hiring an electrician to do it for you.

Enjoy your new fire when you're done! Remember, always connect your electric fire to a dedicated power socket instead of an extension cable. This will ensure that your fire is secure and can help avoid any issues with your electricity supply in the future.

Flames

Freestanding electric fires have different flame options to suit your personal style. Some electric fires employ chemical mixtures that are emitted from only one point, and does not have the chaotic appearance of log flames made of wood. Others are based on LED technology, which gives the flames believable movement and unpredictable. MagikFlame's Hybrid FX technology creates an immersive experience through the cycling of the flames, accent lighting, and the ember bed through an array of colors that resembles a rainbow.

To make things even more flexible Many models are available in left-corner, right-corner or three-sided bay designs to suit a variety of installations. There are also single-sided wall-mounted models that work as partially or built-in electric fireplaces. These are great for quick and easy installation.

Fuel bed

The fuel bed is the flammable material surrounding the flames of a floor-standing electric fire, and is responsible for combustion. The fuel bed is made up of a variety of materials such as log effect or real coals which can be adjusted to fit your decor. Several factors influence the shape of the fuel bed, such as its size, shape and structure, which could greatly affect the combustion of the flames.

Anderson (1964), in a study on pine needle fuel beds, observed that spread rates of fire were independent of fuel depth above the threshold of 0.0762m (with positive correlation below this threshold depth). This observation agreed with earlier observations from the crib fire experiments conducted by Catchpole and others, as well as observations from the vast field of fire behaviour studies of which Rothermel is the most prominent.

However the structure of natural fuel beds in wildland habitats is extremely complex and their characteristics change widely over time and across space. Fuel Characteristic Classification System was developed in order to capture this diversity and to determine the potential impact of fuelbeds on fire behavior. FCCS fuelbeds are categorized into six strata; shrubs, canopy nonwoody fuels, woody fuels, and litter-lichen-moss. The resulting attributes, as summarized by the Consume 4.2 calculator that is integrated into the FFT software are useful for mapping fuelbeds. They can also be used to input models for fire behaviour prediction.

A study of the dimensional structure of each of the six types of fuelbed was conducted to determine the rate at which fire spreads under windy and non-windy conditions. This led to the development of dimensionless groups based on the variables: dimensionless spread rate, dimensionless size of fuel particles and moisture content dimensions dimensionless fuel bed density, or fuel loading density, and dimensions dimensionless wind speed. Dimensionless correlations made using the groups that were created correlated the rate of spread of fire in wind and no-wind conditions fairly reliably. However, it is important to note that these dimensionless correlations were based on experimental data that only covered a small part of the natural fuel types that can be found in wildland habitats.
