5 Reasons to Buy an 

Electric Fireplace This Winter

1. No Smoke

Wood burning fireplaces release cancer-causing agents and dangerous fumes, such as carbon dioxide and carbon monoxide, into your home. Inhalation of these fumes can be dangerous to your family and pets. Even switching to woods that are supposed to produce higher heat and less smoke still produce harmful smoke that reduces the air quality in your home. However, Smallbee electric fireplaces have zero emissions and no hazardous byproducts.

With an Smallbee electric fireplace, long gone are the days when your whole house smelled like smoke. You can have a fireplace without harmful smoke or smoky odors seeping into carpets, rugs, couches, clothing or beds. Moreover, those inflicted with allergies and medical conditions such as asthma can find comfort and convenience in more advanced heating technology. For example, some electric fireplaces use infrared heat to avoid drying out the air and help maintain natural humidity for healthier warmth.

2. Save Money

You may have guessed that the energy efficiency of Smallbee electric fireplaces also makes them more cost-efficient. As far as fireplaces go, electric is the least expensive. One of the reasons why is because electric fireplaces provide supplemental zone heating. Zone heating saves money by allowing you to lower the overall temperature of your home by 10-15 degrees. Then, you heat only the room that is occupied. This concept reduces the use of wasted energy and could save you up to 10% on your energy bills.


Smallbe electric fireplaces also save you from costly chimney cleaning, service checks, and installation fees. For wood-burning fireplaces, costs associated with installing and maintenance tend to be outrageous. With a traditional fireplace, you can expect to pay anywhere from £5,000-£7,000 or more on installation. Furthermore, associated costs can add up quickly. Chimney inspection, chimney cleaning, wood, and the lost heat that escapes from the chimney can drive up those numbers.Meanwhile, an electric fireplace allows you to simply plug it in and enjoy.

3. Fireplace Safety

Although Smallbee electric fireplaces produce enough heat to warm a room 400 square feet and up, they remain cool to the touch. Without the issue of hot metal casings, electric fireplaces are a safe alternative to a traditional fireplace for kids and pets. 


Automatic overheat protection also reduces the risk of fires resulting from the overheating of electronics. This safety feature monitors the temperature of the electric fireplace's plug and automatically shuts off the unit should unsafe conditions arise. It automatically shuts the unit off if a person or object obstructs the heat source.

4. So Many Electric Fireplace Options

Smallbee electric fireplaces come in a plethora of styles and options. They can look more traditional or contemporary to match any type of home decor or architectural style. Additionally, they allow the owner to be in complete control of their ideal fire experience. Depending on the features of the model you choose, you can customize settings such as brightness, flame speed, flame color, and more to suit your style or mood.


They can also be placed in locations that don’t normally allow for fireplaces, such as basements. You can even find some incorporated into various types of furniture. Some models are built into beautiful mantels and media consoles, allowing for extra storage that is also stylish. Wall mounted units save space and can sometimes be installed in a wall for a more flush look. Meanwhile, other options like electric fireplace inserts and electric log sets can be installed in already existing fireplaces to solve issues with a non-working wood or gas fireplace. More compact electric fireplace options can be moved around from room to room whenever you desire.

5. Use Electric Fireplaces Year-Round

Since heat and flame effect controls are independent, anyone can enjoy the cozy glow of an Smallbee electric fireplace. Even during the warmer months! Use them with or without heat, leaving to experience the ambiance of a gentle rolling fire. Homes in all climates can set the mood for any occasion, in any room, all year long.
