Fireplace Suites - The Complete Package

A fireplace suite is the complete package; it includes a surround/mantelpiece, hearth and fire all working together to create the centrepiece of your home. Evolution Fires' suites are ideal for bedrooms, living spaces, extensions and bathrooms.

Hotels with fireplaces give the impression of warmth and luxury that encourages customers to return. Find out how you can add this luxury to your hotel.

The hearth

The hearth is a flat platform that sits at the base of a fireplace. It's designed to protect the wall and floor from embers or heat damage. It is usually constructed from non-combustible materials such as brick or stone, and is 16 to 18 inches before the firebox. Electric fireplace suites are often without a hearth.

As a general rule, fireplace suites consist of four main components; an inset fire (either gas or electric), a surround/mantelpiece, a back panel and the hearth. The four components are grouped together to create an attractive focal point that can improve the aesthetics of your home and make your home more inviting. This is why suites are the ideal choice for those seeking to update their interior and give it a brand new look.

Suites are available in a broad variety of finishes, styles and colours that can be matched to any decor. There are also a wide range of choices for the type of fire, flame effect and heating output. Conventional gas-fueled fires are the best option for homes with chimneys, while balanced flue fires are an alternative that can be used in homes without chimneys.

Electric fireplace suites are an excellent alternative for those looking to create a focal point to their living spaces without the hassle of putting in an old-fashioned wood burner or gas fire. They generate their own heat through a process known as convection. It draws in cool air, then warms it, and then releases it into the room. These suites do not emit carbon monoxide which is dangerous to breathe in.

The back panel

A fireplace back panel is situated at the back of the fireplace opening. It is used to create an 'n-shaped' look with the mantelpiece, surround, and the inset fire. It can be constructed from a number of materials that resist heat, including stone, granite and slate.

The back panel is typically included in a fireplace suite that includes a surround, the mantelpiece, and an inset fire appliance. This is an ideal way to save time and effort in the process of installation since the components are made to work seamlessly, both structurally and aesthetically.

There are also standalone back panels available which are perfect for instances where you're replacing a gas or electric fireplace and wish to improve the appearance of your existing chimney breast without having to remove it. These back panels come in a range of different styles and materials, so you can choose the right one for your home.

Alongside being stylish as well as a stylish option, back panels are generally constructed from a heat-resistant material, which is important to protect your walls and floor from the effects of your fireplace suite. This is especially important when you choose a gas or solid fuel fireplace, because they generate an immense amount of heat that could be transferred to nearby areas via the wall or ceiling.

A back panel can really help to tie together your entire fireplace set-up particularly if you're looking for a modern look. For instance, this stunning flamerite Ador LED electric fireplace features an angled flame design which really enhances the appearance of your new fireplace. When combined with a contemporary open-fronted electric fireplace the Ador LED suite is sure to create an impressive focal feature in any living room and dining area or extension.

Alternatively, this Elgin and Hall Farnham Deluxe suite is equipped with the well-known Chollerton inset gas fire. This glass-fronted fire is a real showstopper, and when combined with the limestone surround and back panel, it can elevate any home to new heights.

The surround/mantelpiece

Unlike traditional fireplaces, which must be fitted with a back panel and a fire surround, modern electric fireplaces can be hung to the wall in a flush position and create a stunning focal point. They are perfect for homes where space is at a minimum or where a chimney and flue aren't available.

The fire

The center of any fireplace is the fire itself, but you don't have to go with a traditional wood burning fireplace. Electric and gas are also alternatives. The key is to find a design that complements your space and meets your needs. You can also select the larger model or fireplace with a larger panel to frame the fire and create an amazing focal point for your living space.

When you are choosing a fireplace, make sure to consider how much heat you'll need to heat your home. It will be determined by several factors, including the wattage of the fireplace, your current electricity rates and the length of time you plan to use it every day. Divide the wattage of the fireplace by the energy rate per kilowatt-hour charged by your electricity provider.

The surround of your fireplace and mantelpiece also play a big role in how it looks in your space. Some are intricate designs that provide visual interest, while others have a more subtle look that blends in with any interior style. There is even a suite that has an LED inner glow log effect to give the illusion of a real flame without making use of any fuel.

When it comes to fire places there are four kinds of wood (nice to look at and feel but less efficient; emits air pollutants like particulate matter carbon monoxide, particulate matter and nitrogen dioxide) gas (more efficient in energy use, but still produces carbon monoxide, burns synthetic or natural logs); and electric fire suites for sale (uses an electric coil and fan system that doesn't release dangerous gases, very economical and cozy). Select a fireplace set-up with a high BTU rating to get the most effective results. This will warm the room faster and create a more authentic fire effect.
