Easy Installation
Electric wall mount fireplaces are easy to install in a construction project or renovation. They don't require a gas line or venting system. They can be hung in your living room without any effort and they look stunning with or without heating. Their fan-powered heaters are also incredibly efficient.
First, decide the best location to place the electric fireplace. Before you begin any work, mark the desired location of your electric fireplace with a cardboard cutout. You'll need to decide whether you'd like to put in the fireplace in a partially or fully recessed fashion.
The majority of electric fireplaces can be put in a wall opening to create built-in or an electric insert. This kind of installation requires an opening in the wall to accommodate the dimensions and shape of the fireplace. If you're going to be installing an in-built fireplace, we recommend hiring an electrician to wire the unit into the electrical system of your home.
Installing your electric fireplace is a breeze once you've determined the location where it will be installed. A lot of models come with a template, which you can use to mark the exact location where the brackets for mounting will have to be placed on your wall. If your fireplace doesn't have a template, use a pencil and a spirit level to make an equilateral line on the wall where you'll need to drill holes for the brackets.
After marking the area, cut and measure the pieces of drywall that will fit into the opening. If you're changing an existing fireplace, you'll need to patch the wall prior installing the drywall. You may also decide to add an individual hearth and mantel in place of an existing wood frame.
If you are using an electric fireplace with built-in, the back of the unit will have slots or holes for connecting to the holes or slots on the mounting brackets. Certain models also come with an electric cord that you'll need to pull through the wall and plug into an outlet. If you don't wish to move the plug socket, consider painting or tackable power cord covers for a neat look.
