Getting an electric fireplace right in Washington Shores homes
How the job runs in Washington Shores, and where your choices come in.
120 volt and 240 volt models
Most household electric fireplaces run on 120 volts. Some larger built-in models can be wired for 240 volts, and their manuals say the circuit must be rated for the voltage used.
That choice is made before the wall is closed, because it decides what the electrician runs to the connection point. We confirm the voltage from the rating label and the manual, and the estimate spells out which supply your installation needs.
Two people to lift larger units
Long linear fireplaces and large inserts are heavy and awkward. Makers often say that two people are required for some installation steps, and a dropped unit can crack the glass or bend the frame.
Our crew handles the lifting and setting as a team. We unpack carefully, move the unit on protected floors and set it into its opening or on its bracket without strain. It is part of why the fireplace arrives on your wall in the same condition it left the box.
Glass and media go on last
The front glass on an electric fireplace is easy to scratch and awkward to clean once dust has settled behind it. Makers often say to leave it in the box until the rest of the installation is done.
We set the unit, finish the trim and clean the area, then fit the glass and arrange the media bed. It is also the moment to check that the media does not block the heater outlet or a light source. The fireplace should look its best on the first switch-on.
Hauling away the old unit
When a new electric fireplace replaces an old one, or an insert replaces doors and a grate, the old parts have to go somewhere. Electronics and glass should not just be left at the curb.
We take the old unit and packaging with us and dispose of them properly. That is listed on your estimate as part of the job. If you want to keep the old unit for another room, tell us and we will leave it boxed and ready to move.

Electric fireplace answers for Washington Shores homeowners
If your question is not here, our Washington Shores team is a phone call away.
Can you put an electric insert in my old fireplace?
Yes, in most sound, dry fireboxes. We measure the opening, remove old doors or grates, close drafts behind the insert as its manual directs and bring power to it. A trim kit then finishes the face.
Will you install a fireplace I bought online?
Yes. Send us the model number when you book so we can read its manual before the visit. If the model does not suit your wall, we tell you before anything is cut.
