Electric fires offer the ultimate in home heating flexibility. They provide the warm, inviting atmosphere of a traditional hearth without the need for a chimney, flue, or complex structural renovations. At Glowing Flames, our range of electric fires is designed for real life and offers clean, stylish visuals and instant heat that fits seamlessly into modern flats, new-build homes, and traditional family spaces alike.
Unlike gas or solid fuel alternatives, an electric fire can be installed on almost any wall in any room. With advanced LED technology and independent heat controls, you can enjoy the "cosy factor" of a flickering flame even on a warm summer evening.
To find the perfect fit for your home, explore our different installation styles:
Total Control Over Ambience
Most modern electric fires feature a "flame-only" setting. This allows you to benefit from the relaxing visual effect of a fire without activating the 1kW or 2kW heater, making your fireplace a year-round feature rather than just a winter necessity.
Safety for the Whole Family
Because there is no real combustion, electric fires stay much cooler to the touch than wood or gas alternatives. With built-in overheat protection, cool-touch glass, and 24-hour timers, they are the safest choice for homes with young children, pets, or elderly residents.
Effortless Installation
The majority of our electric fires require nothing more than a standard UK 3-pin socket. This "plug-in and play" nature means you can enjoy your new fire minutes after delivery, avoiding the high costs of gas engineers or chimney sweeps.
Are electric fires expensive to run?
Not necessarily. When using the LED flame effect alone, the cost is often less than 1p per hour. While the heater uses more energy, built-in thermostats ensure the unit only draws power until your room reaches the desired temperature, helping you manage your energy bills effectively.
Can I install an electric fire in a bedroom?
Yes. In fact, electric fires are the most popular choice for bedrooms because they don't require ventilation or a chimney. They provide a safe, cosy, and romantic atmosphere that is easy to switch off before you fall asleep.
How much heat do they produce?
Most electric fires provide up to 2kW of heat output. This is designed for "zone heating"—warming a single room comfortably so you can turn down your main central heating and save energy in the rest of the house.
Do I need an air vent in the room?
No. Unlike gas or wood-burning fires, electric models do not produce smoke, carbon monoxide, or fumes. This means no external venting or air bricks are required, making them perfect for well-insulated modern homes.
How realistic are the flames on Electric Fires?
Modern LED technology has transformed electric fires. Many of our premium models feature adjustable flame speeds, multiple colour settings (from deep orange to sapphire blue), and hand-painted log sets with glowing ember beds to create a truly convincing 3D effect.
No ventilation or chimney is required. Electric fires are emission-free, making them ideal for flats and rooms without flues or chimney.
