Its primary function is to shield the floor and wall from embers or heat. It is typically constructed of non-combustible substances like brick or stone and extends from 16 to 18 inches in front of the firebox. Electric fireplaces are typically 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. These components work together to create an attractive focal point that can enhance aesthetics and make your home more welcoming. Suites are ideal for anyone looking to give their interior an updated look and restyle it.

Suites are available in a variety of styles, colours and finishes to match any style. There are also a wide range of options for the type of flame effect, fire and heating output. Traditional fires that are gas-fueled are ideal for homes with chimneys. However, balanced flue fireplaces are safe to use without chimneys.

Electric fireplaces are the ideal option for those who want to add a focal piece to their living space without the need to install traditional wood or gas fire. These suites generate their own heat by using a process known as convection. This draws in cool air, warms it and then ejects it out into the room. Unlike wood-burning fireplaces, these suites do not release carbon monoxide that can be dangerous if breathed in.

The back panel

As the name suggests, the fireplace back panel is located at the back of the fireplace's opening. It helps create an attractive 'n'-shaped design alongside the surround, mantelpiece and the inset fire. It is made from a variety of materials that are heat-resistant like granite and stone.

The back panel is usually part of a fireplace suite which includes a surround, a mantelpiece, and an inset fire appliance. This can be a great way to save time and hassle during installation as the components have been designed to fit together seamlessly, both structurally and aesthetically.

There are also stand-alone back panels that are ideal for replacing the gas or electric fireplace, and upgrading the appearance of an existing chimney breast. Back panels are available in a variety of styles and materials so that you can choose the right one for your home.

Back panels are not just stylish, but they are also made of heat-resistant materials. This is important because it protects your walls and floors from the effects of the fireplace suite. This is especially important when you select a gas or solid fuel fireplace suite. They will produce an enormous amount of heat that is transferred through the ceiling and wall to the space.

The fire

The center of any fireplace suite is the fire itself however, you don't have to opt for a traditional wood burning fireplace. There are many other options out there, including electric and gas. It is important to select a design that fits your room and your requirements. You can also opt for a fireplace that is larger or with a wider panel that frames the fire to create a stunning focal point in your living space.

When you are choosing a fireplace suite, be sure to take into consideration how much heat you'll need for your home. It will be determined by some factors, such as the amount of heat produced by the fireplace as well as the current rates for electricity and the length of time you're planning to use it every day. Divide the wattage of your fireplace by the energy rate per kilowatt-hour charged by your electricity provider.

The surround and mantelpiece of your fireplace also have a major impact on how it looks. Some have intricate designs that add a new visual interest to the room, while others are more minimalist and will blend in with most styles of interiors. You can find a suite with an LED inner glow log to create the illusion of a real fireplace without using any fuel.

When it comes to fireplaces there are four kinds of wood (nice to look at and feel but less efficient; emits air pollutants like particulate matter carbon monoxide, nitrogen dioxide); gas (more efficient in energy use, but still produces carbon monoxide, burns synthetic or natural logs) and electric (uses the coil and fan system that doesn't release dangerous gases, very economical and cozy). Choose a fireplace suite with a high BTU rating to get the most effective results. This will heat your room faster and give an authentic flame effect.
