Here are some tips and tricks for keeping your property warm and cozy with less risk.
Electric fireplaces are electronic heaters with the appearance of a conventional fireplace. They provide the perfect ambiance by mimicking the glowing embers of a log burning hearth, while warming a large area of living space. They work by warming cool air with hot coils and using a fan to blow the hot air back into the room to be recirculated. Many homeowners are switching to electronic alternatives to traditional fireplaces for many reasons. They reduce risk of fire from open flames, eliminate smoke inside the home and are extremely energy efficient.
While the risk of injury and fire may be greatly reduced when compared to a conventional wood burning fireplace, there are still a few potential dangers that homeowners should be aware of. Use the following best practices to drastically decrease injuries and property damage.
