Our approach to electric fireplaces in Avalon Park
Before you approve an installation in Avalon Park, these are worth knowing.
Mounting height for the best flame view
Mounting height is partly comfort and partly the maker's advice. Dimplex's IgniteXL manual recommends mounting the bottom of the unit between 30 and 40 inches from the floor for the best viewing angle of the flame.
We mock up the height on your wall with tape so you can see it from where you sit. If a TV is going above, the fireplace height and the TV height are chosen together. The final numbers go on the estimate, so there is no debate on install day.
Planning for future service
Sooner or later, most appliances need a part replaced, and a fireplace is no exception. On most built-in units, that means sliding the unit out of its opening. If the finish locks it in, a simple repair can turn into demolition.
We plan the trim and finish so the unit can come out without breaking tile or stone. Where the manual shows a removal path or a service panel, we keep it clear. It is one of the details that makes a built-in installation easy to live with.
Nothing is ever burned in an electric unit
Makers say it in every manual: do not burn wood or other materials in an electric fireplace. It sounds obvious, but an insert sitting in an old firebox can look enough like the real thing to confuse a guest.
We point this out at the walkthrough, especially when an insert replaces a wood-burning setup. The old tools and any leftover fuel should be cleared away. The electric fireplace makes its flame with light and its heat with an electric element, and nothing else belongs in it.
Shelves and decor near the heater
Built-in shelves beside an electric fireplace look great, and they are usually fine to the sides. What matters is what sits in the path of the warm air and what could fall onto the unit.
We keep shelves and decor clear of the heater outlet and recommend keeping candles, plants and fabric off the fireplace itself. If you plan to hang stockings or garland, check the manual first. The outlet should never be covered, even for a season.

Electric fireplace installation questions from Avalon Park
Short answers from our fireplace team in Avalon Park. Call for anything not covered here.
Can I plug my electric fireplace into a power strip?
No. Makers say to plug directly into a properly grounded wall outlet and never use an extension cord or power strip. If the outlet is in the wrong place, we plan a proper one with an electrician.
Does the 72-hour 10% discount apply to an installation?
Yes. Any service booked within 72 hours after your free inspection is 10% off, and electric fireplace installation qualifies. Mention it when you book and we will show the savings on your written estimate.
