Electric Fireplace Design Ideas
We like to think of small electric wall-mounted fireplaces as art in motion.
After some thought, we decided our criteria for presenting small electric fireplaces would be those that can fit into a smaller space. How small a small?
Since 95% of fireplaces are rectangular and meant to be hung horizontally, we used 38 inches wide as the maximum with criteria. A yard stick is 36″ inches long to give you some perspective
These fireplaces are small enough to fit almost anywhere where you might hang a picture. The bonus is they have very nice flame effects and can provide supplemental heat to your room. A picture just hangs there.
We also included some vertical electric fireplaces that fit into narrower spaces but still provide a good aesthetic look. They are so uncommon most people don’t even know that they exist. But they do have a small niche to fill – maybe yours?
Our intention in this post was not to conduct full in-depth reviews of each fireplace, but rather to point out examples of the category.
Of course we noted any important information on each fireplace.
