Electric fireplaces are much simpler to install than either wood- or gas-fired units. There is no flue, no outside air inlet and no need to keep a free air clearance to combustible materials. Electric fireplaces are simple to install. Whether purchasing an insert to fill an existing hearth or a stand-alone unit , installation is as simple as plugging in the unit and following the manufacturers instructions. The surrounds and mantels for electric fireplaces are often more attractive than for real wood or gas logs because concern for high heat is not a factor. Hand-polished wood and lacquered brass trim can be closer to the opening.
