Electric Fireplaces—cozy and clean

Electric fireplaces offer realistic flames and smart technology for a cozy vibe free of smoke and fossil-fuels.

Join us as we explore the many advantages of electric fireplaces as a modern, efficient, and cozy alternative to wood or natural gas. Electric fireplaces offer a perfect blend of warmth and ambiance, with realistic flames available in a range of colors and styles. Whether you're looking for a heat-free fire to create a welcoming atmosphere during summer or a snug, reliable heat source for chilly winter nights, electric fireplaces can deliver.

In this session, we’ll debunk the last major argument for natural gas—your fireplace—and show you why electric models are the future.

Electric fireplace inserts are easy to install and maintain, and allow you to enjoy the comforting look of a flame and adjustable heat with just the click of a button. Unlike traditional gas fireplaces, electric inserts require no venting, complex wiring, or professional installation, making them a DIY-friendly upgrade that most homeowners can complete on their own. Whether you’re replacing a gas insert or installing a new unit, electric fireplaces are a hassle-free way to heat your home while reducing your reliance on fossil fuels—for some people, this is the last step to getting off of fossil gas completely.

The latest electric fireplace models go beyond the traditional, offering cutting-edge technology that enhances the fireside experience. Features like touch-screen controls, customizable flame effects, and even smart home integration are taking the appeal of electric fireplaces to a whole new level.

• What types and styles of electric fireplaces are available?

• How easy are they to install?

• Can an electric fireplace replace a gas fireplace insert?
