Electric fireplace installation explained for Eagle Creek homeowners
Straight answers about electric fireplace installation in Eagle Creek, from the people who do the work.
A wall unit is not automatically a recessed unit
It is tempting to buy a slim wall-mount fireplace and sink it into the wall for a cleaner look. Some models allow that and some do not. A unit designed to hang on the surface may need open space around its vents that a recess would close off.
Our installers check the manual's list of approved mounting options before planning any opening. Dimplex's IgniteXL manual, for example, lists partial recess, flush and sub-surface mounting and limits how deep the sub-surface option may go. If your model does not permit the style you want, we tell you before the drywall is cut.
Reading the rating label
Every electric fireplace carries a rating label with its model and electrical information, such as voltage and wattage or amperage. On Dimplex's IgniteXL models, the manual points to a label on the top of the unit.
That label is how we check the unit against the circuit it will use. It also helps the electrician if one is involved. We note the figures on your estimate and in your records, so anyone who works on the fireplace later knows what it draws without pulling it out of the wall.
Running the flame without the heat
On most electric fireplaces the flame picture can run on its own, heater switched off. That means the fireplace can be enjoyed on warm evenings for its look alone, with very little heat added to the room.
At the walkthrough, we show you how to switch between flame only and flame with heat on your model. We also point out brightness and color settings where your model has them, so you get the look you want without reading the whole manual.
A tight finish at the trim
The trim around a built-in electric fireplace frames the whole unit, and gaps or uneven reveals show at a glance. The finish material has to meet the trim cleanly without covering vents or the heater outlet.
We set the unit level, then fit the finish to it, checking the reveal all the way around. Where drywall meets the trim, the edge is straight and painted. Where tile or stone meets it, the cuts are clean. It is the detail people notice most.

Your Eagle Creek electric fireplace questions, answered
Our family-owned team in Eagle Creek answers the questions that come up on installation jobs.
Is the electrical work included in your price?
Any electrical work is listed on its own line and done by an electrician. Our crew handles the fireplace, the framing and the finish. You see who does what, and what each part costs, before you approve.
Do I need to be home during the installation?
It helps to be home at the start and for the walkthrough at the end. That is when we confirm the height and position and show you the controls. In between, we just need access to the room and the breaker panel.
