Electric Fires and Stoves
FAQs
What are the benefits of installing an electric fire?
Electric fires offer easy installation, safety, and efficiency. They do not require a chimney or flue, can be installed virtually anywhere, and provide a clean source of heat without any real flames.
Can an electric fire be installed on any wall?
Most electric fires can be installed on various types of walls, but certain conditions must be met regarding space, electrical outlets, and wall strength. It’s best to consult with us to assess your specific situation.
Do electric fires need a lot of maintenance?
Electric fires are relatively low maintenance compared to traditional wood or gas fires. Regular dusting and an occasional check to ensure the heating elements and other components are functioning correctly are generally all that's needed.
How much will it cost to install an electric fire?
The cost can vary depending on the model of the electric fire and the complexity of the installation. It's advisable to get a detailed quote from your installer after an initial consultation.
How energy efficient are electric fires?
Electric fires are generally very energy efficient. They convert almost all the electricity they consume into heat, but their overall cost-effectiveness will depend on the model and usage patterns.
Can I install an electric fire if I already have a chimney?
Absolutely! Electric fires can be installed with or without an existing chimney. If you have a chimney, you might opt for an electric insert or otherwise use the space decoratively.
How long does an installation take?
Installation time can vary, but most electric fires can be installed within a few hours. This time frame can change based on the complexity of the installation and any additional electrical work required.

What our customers say
Efficient and knowledgeable
Love our new Contura stove and really pleased with the installation. Andy and Tom were very efficient and knowledgeable . Working flat out to ensure the work was completed in and around our other workmen. As well as ensuring the stove and flue were fitted to regulation, they also took time to explain the lighting and maintenance. They were considerate with regards to parking and thoughtful to ensure our dog was kept safe.
Lorna Robertson
Very happy to recommend
Had a bricked-up living room fireplace opened up with new hearth, surround, tiles, flue liner and log burner, and a decorative fireplace put in where old one had been boarded over in the bedroom. The team were prompt, pleasant, worked hard, and I was well looked after throughout the process, which took, in total, two days, split over three sessions due to bad weather and the late arrival of the fire surround. The job was completed to a very high standard, with everywhere left clean and tidy. I would be very happy to recommend the Stove & Fireplace Studio.
