Fireplace Suites - The Complete Package
A fireplace suite is the complete package; it includes a surround/mantelpiece, hearth and fire all working together to create the centrepiece of your home. Evolution Fires' suites are ideal for bedrooms, living spaces, extensions and bathrooms.
Hotels with fireplaces create an atmosphere of luxury and warmth that draws customers back. Find out how you can bring this feel to your hotel.
The hearth
The hearth is the flat platform that sits at the base of a fireplace, designed to protect the floor and wall from heat damage or embers. It is usually made from non-combustible materials such as stone or brick and extends 16 to 18 inches prior to the firebox. Electric fireplace suites are often without a hearth.
As a general rule, fireplace suites consist of four main components; an inset fire (either gas or electric), a surround/mantelpiece, a back panel and the hearth. They work in conjunction to create a centerpiece that can enhance the look of any room and make your home feel more welcoming. As a result, suites are ideal for anyone seeking to update their interior and give it a new look.
Suites are available in various designs, colors and finishes to suit any style. They also provide a broad selection of options when it comes to kind of fire and effect as well as heating outputs. Gas-fuelled conventional fires are ideal for homes with chimneys, while balanced flue fireplaces can be used safely without chimneys.
free standing electric fireplace with mantel fireplaces are the ideal option for those looking to add a focal piece to their living space without having to put in a traditional gas or wood fire. The suites generate their own heat via convection that draws in cool air, then heats it up before venting it out into the room. Contrary to fireplaces that burn wood, these suites do not release carbon monoxide, which could be dangerous if breathed in.
The back panel
A back panel for the fireplace is situated behind the fireplace opening. It assists in creating an 'N-shaped' design by combining the surround, mantelpiece, and inset fire. It is made of various materials that are resistant to heat, such as slate, granite and stone.
The back panel is typically included in a fireplace set which includes a surround, a mantelpiece, and an inset fire appliance. This can be an ideal way to save time and hassle in the process of installation since the components are made to work seamlessly both structurally and visually.

The fire
The central element of any fireplace is the fire itself however, you don't have to go with the traditional wood burning fireplace. Gas and electric are also options. It is important to select the right design for your space and needs. You can also select the larger model or fireplace that has a wider panel to frame the fire and create an impressive focal point in your room.
Consider how much heat your home will need when selecting the right fireplace set. This will depend upon some factors, such as the power of the fireplace as well as the current rates for electricity and the length of time you're planning to use it each day. To find this out, you need to divide the fire's wattage by the energy rate of your electricity provider per Kilowatt hour.
The fireplace's surround and mantelpiece also be a significant factor in how it looks in your space. Some are intricate designs that provide visual interest, while others have a more subtle design that blends in with any interior style. You can find a set that has an LED inside glow log to give the illusion of a fireplace without using any fuel.
When it comes to fire places there are four kinds that are available: wood (nice to look at and feel but less efficient; emits air pollutants like particulate matter carbon monoxide, nitrogen dioxide) and gas (more efficient in terms of energy, but still releases carbon monoxide, burns natural or synthetic logs); and electric (uses an electric coil and fan, doesn't release any dangerous gases, very economical and cozy). If you're looking to make the most of your fireplace suite make sure you choose one with high BTUs. This will make your room warm faster and provide more realistic flame effects.
