How to Install a Wall Mounted Fireplace

A wall-mounted fireplace may be mounted on a wall, or in recesses. Depending on which type of fireplace you pick, it will be shipped via parcel or LTL.

Be sure to check the output of heat from the fireplace that is mounted on the wall and its other features prior to purchasing one. It is important to also read the instructions given by the manufacturer.

Installing them is simple

A wall mounted electric fireplace can be a wonderful feature for any room. It can be erected on an entirely new wall or incorporated into an existing one. The installation process is easy, since the only thing you need to do is locate an electrical outlet close to the location you wish to place the fireplace. Decide whether you want to cut the wall or build out. If you're mounting the fireplace to a wall you must ensure that it is in the right depth for the recess where you intend to put it.

Once you have decided on where to put the fireplace, you will be required to mark the location on the wall and then drill holes for the screws. You may also need to cut a hole for the fire and sand down any rough edges. Install the fireplace once the wall is finished by aligning the bracket with the hole and then screwing it into place. Depending on the design of fireplace, you may need to fix the bottom of the fire by using a second support on the wall fires.

It is best to use a metal scanner or a wall stud finder when mounting the fireplace on a plastered wall to ensure that you're drilling into a stud. Because they do not have studs, you'll require extra care when drilling. Once you've drilled the holes, you can insert hanging screws or rawl plugs into the holes and then leave them in the middle of the wall by 5-10mm.

You can also hang the fireplace using hooks or keyhole slots on the back of the fireplace. To do this align the keyhole slots on the back of the fireplace with the hooks on the wall bracket and then place the hooks in the slots. Some electric fireplaces have an additional bracket at the bottom of the fire to provide extra support on the wall.

Finally connect the power cord to the electrical outlet and then test the fireplace. If everything works then you're now ready to enjoy your new electric fireplace that is mounted to the wall!

You can afford it

Wall-mounted fireplaces are compact and can be incorporated into any room. They do not produce ash, and thus require less maintenance. They also don't have to be refuelled and are powered by electricity or gas. They aren't as appealing as a hearth fireplace, but manufacturers are working hard to make them appear more authentic.

A wall-mounted electric fire can be built as a freestanding unit or into the wall of the room, depending on the style. If you're looking to recess the modern fireplace heating technology to distribute warm air evenly throughout the room. This ensures that every corner of the room is cozy and warm without sacrificing efficiency. They also have adjustable heat settings, so you can choose the level of heat you want to utilize.

The mounting brackets of a wall-mounted electric fireplace must be secured to the studs behind the drywall before attaching the tabletop fireplace itself. If the brackets don't fit correctly, the fireplace may fall off the wall and cause damage to your home. Additionally, you should always look for cracks or holes in the wall prior to hang the fireplace. Make use of a cable management system to conceal cables behind walls. This will give your home a professional, neat look.
