Electric Fire Suites

Installation Ease

The electric fire suites are ready to be installed with an electrical plug. You can select the wall-mounted option or an inset option to fit into the fireplace opening.

Some models require an opening for the fireplace of 55mm or 100mm deep. Refer to the installation guidelines to find out the specifics.

Once holes are completed, you can insert rawl plugs in them and then use wall brackets or hanging screws to secure your new fireplace in position.
