About Built-In Electric Fireplace Boxes

Built-in electric fireplace boxes are an alternative to traditional wood fireplaces, and have become more popular, due to rising heat costs. Chosen for their versatility, they provide warmth without a lot of expense, are maintenance-free and can be turned on and off with a convenient remote control.

Convenient

Installation of a new electric fireplace box is relatively easy, whether it's going in a new home being constructed, or an older home being renovated. Use an electric box in your fireplace for the aesthetic value. Operate the box without heat in the warmer months to provide a warm, cheerful atmosphere. When the cold weather arrives, push the switch to turn the unit on for warmth in any room. Designs are created to enhance any decor, including rustic, country-style rooms or Southwestern looks, or traditional Victorian rooms.

Versatile
Use an electric fireplace box in any fireplace that uses wood or natural gas. Electric boxes can be used in fireplaces on interior or exterior walls. Use them in corner fireplaces since they can be installed quickly. Vents aren't required. Electric boxes are used above or below grade.

Ease
Constructed of high-quality materials, electric fireplace boxes are very durable and designed to last for a very long time. Wiring is easy, and there is no special wiring required for the box. Once it's installed, it runs on ordinary 120 volts from any home. Rising heat from a fireplace can overheat a room, but with an electric box, the rooms remain a consistently comfortable temperature.
