Floor Standing Electric Fire A floor-standing electric fireplace is a fireplace that sits on the ground rather than being installed into a wall. All of them give the appearance of flames while producing heat. They are able to be used with a log, coal or a modern pebble fuel bed. Some models also come with remote controls which is ideal for those who wish to control their settings from a distance. They are certified by the CSA and are safe to use with children in the room. The following are some examples of Freestanding electric fires provide a traditional aesthetic that can elevate the look of any room. They are simple to set up and take up a small amount of space. There are many styles to pick from and the majority of them have an all-black surround to create a stunning effect. Choose a log or coal effect fuel bed to enhance the authentic feel or choose the pebble effect in a color to make things more interesting. Alternately, you can opt for a built-in electric fire that will be incorporated into the fireplace mantel. They are a much more durable option than wall-mounted units and allow you to place additional furniture for storage beneath the unit, for example sideboard cabinets or credenzas. They come in a variety of finishes that can be matched to any decor, and some have the option of a glass panel or mirrored finish to give a more modern appearance. Electric inserts are the perfect option to improve any design in your home without spending a lot of money. These inserts 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 an excellent option for those looking to create a fireplace without chimney. Direct Fireplaces offers a wide choice of electric fireplaces that can be used to heat your living space, or to add a warm touch to your guest room. We offer a range of traditional and contemporary electric fires from leading brands, including Be Modern, Dimplex and Celsi. All of our products come with a full warranty and financing is available. You're sure find the perfect electric fire for your home with our vast selection of sizes and finishes. We also have a wide assortment of accessories, including hearths and back panels so you can personalize your fireplace. Fireplaces And Stove -mounted electric fires are becoming popular as a multi-purpose and simple way to add an attractive addition to your home. Installing them is simple because they don't require a chimney or flue. However, it's important to follow the directions and have the right tools at the premises. Depending on the model you choose, it may be necessary to drill holes into your wall and install a bracket. Before drilling, it's a great idea to use a stud-finder as well as a spirit level to ensure you are not drilling into something that is crucial. Once you have the wall bracket in place, it's time to fit your fire. You can either place the fire in the firebox and then secure it to the bracket, or you can mount the firebox together with the screen as a complete unit. If you're not comfortable doing this on your own, we'd recommend getting an electrician to complete the task for you. Once you're done you can relax and relax and enjoy your new flame! Always plug your electric fireplace into a designated socket, rather than using an extension cord. This will help you to ensure the security of your electric fire and prevent future problems with your electrical supply. Flames There are a variety of flame options available for freestanding electric fireplaces to suit your interior design. Certain electric fires utilize an organic mixture of chemicals that is released from only one point, and lacks the chaotic appearance of wood log flames. Others are built on LED technology that creates realistic flames and unpredictable. MagikFlame's Hybrid FX technology provides an immersive experience through the cycling of the flames, accent lighting and the ember bed through an array of colors that resembles a rainbow. Many models are available with left-corner, corner-right or three-sided bays to provide even more flexibility. You can also find wall-mounted models that are single-sided, and work well as electric fireplaces that are either partially or completely recessible. They are perfect for quick and simple installation. Fuel bed The fuel bed associated with a floor standing electric fire is the flammable material that covers the flames and is responsible for their combustion. The fuel bed can be comprised of a variety materials, like log effect or real coals. It can also be customized to match your design. The fuel bed is affected by many factors, such as its size, shape and structure. These can have a significant impact on the flames. In an investigation of pine needle fuel beds, Anderson (1964) observed that fire spread rate was independent of fuel depth above the threshold of 0.0762 meters (with a positive relationship below this threshold). This observation was in accordance with earlier observations made by Catchpole and other researchers, and also observations from the vast field of fire behavior studies that Rothermel is the leader of. However, the structure of natural fuel beds in wildland environments is extremely complex and their properties vary widely over time and across space. In an effort to identify this diversity to better understand this, the Fuel Characteristic Classification System (FCCS) was developed to categorize fuelbeds and identify their potential effects on fire behavior. FCCS fuelbeds are organized into six strata; shrubs, canopy, nonwoody fuels, woody fuels, and litter-lichen-moss. The attributes summarized by Consume 4.2 integrated into the FFT software, can be useful in mapping fuelbeds. They can be used to input into models to predict fire behaviour. For each of the six fuelbed types A dimensional analysis was conducted to compare the spread rate of fire under wind and no-wind conditions. This led to the development of dimensionless groups based on each of the variables: dimensionless fire spread rate and dimensionless fuel particle sizes and moisture content dimensions dimensionless fuel bed density or loading density, and dimensions dimensionless wind speed. Dimensionless correlations made using the resulting groups correlated the spread rate of fire in wind and no-wind conditions reliably. However it is important to keep in mind that these correlations were based on experiments data that only covered a small portion of the range of natural fuel types that are found in wildland environments.
