Electric fireplace details that matter in Southern Oaks
Our team in Southern Oaks walks every homeowner through points like these.
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.
A TV above an electric fireplace
Putting a television above an electric fireplace is common, but two sets of instructions apply. The fireplace manual says where heat leaves the unit and what may sit near it. The TV maker has its own guidance on heat and mounting.
We lay out both on the wall before anything is mounted. The heater outlet direction, the distance to the TV and any mantel or shelf between them all get checked. The plan is written down, so the TV installer and our crew work to the same layout.
Permits for electrical and wall work
Makers say construction and wiring must comply with local building codes and other applicable regulations. Whether a permit is needed depends on the work, such as a new circuit or structural framing, and on the local building department.
We do not guess. When the project includes electrical work, the electrician handles what that work requires. When framing is involved, we tell you if we expect a permit to be needed. The estimate notes who is responsible for each item, so nothing falls through the gap.
Offices and dens
A small electric fireplace can take the chill out of a home office or den without heating the whole house. These rooms often share circuits with computers, printers and chargers, which matters when the heater runs.
We check what else is on the circuit before recommending a plug-in unit. If the office circuit is busy, we suggest a lighter circuit or a new outlet by an electrician. The fireplace then runs its heater without tripping the breaker in the middle of a call.

Before your electric fireplace install in Southern Oaks
Our family-owned team in Southern Oaks answers the questions that come up on installation jobs.
Is the in-home visit really free in Southern Oaks?
Yes. There is no charge for the visit to your Southern Oaks home and no obligation to book. You get a clear explanation and a written estimate for the installation.
Can an electric fireplace go in a bathroom?
Only if its manual allows it. Some makers rule out bathrooms entirely, while others allow them with a GFI-protected supply. The manuals we have read also say never to place a unit where it could fall into a tub.
