What Are Fire Suites?

Fire suites are comprised of hearths, surrounds and other fireplace components. They are a stunning focal point for your living space and improve the look of an existing electric or gas fire.

Aluminized suits reflect radiant heat, while protecting against high temperatures. They are commonly used in welding or steel mills. The right suit for protection is dependent on determining the risk your employees could be exposed to.

Gas

Gas fire suites offer modern and sleek take on fireplace design, and offer the benefits of flame effects and heat output. They can be put in homes with or without chimneys. They can also be used in homes that have pre-cast chimneys. They can be mounted on the wall or incorporated into the fireplace.

These types of fires operate on a natural gas supply which is connected to your central heating system or an external propane tank. It is important to collaborate with a certified gas engineer to ensure your gas installation is safe and completed correctly.

Vented gas fires can be installed into your existing chimney system or a factory-built chimney, and the exhaust is directed to the outside via a flexible liner or one pipe inside the chimney breast.

Electricity

Electric fire suites are a great option for those looking to create the appearance of a fireplace, but do not want to deal with chimneys, flues or major structural work. Installing them is easy, as they sit flush against the wall and plug into an electrical socket. They come in a variety of styles, from contemporary to traditional and are incredibly versatile.

In contrast to gas fires, electric fire suite and surround fire suites don't release heat but instead use a technology called "flame effect" to replicate the look of real flames and smoke.

Solid Fuel

Solid fuel fire suites bring the traditional, cozy look to your home. The flickering flames of real coal, wood or pebbles give off an inviting glow and create a relaxing ambience. This type of fireplace is very popular, especially during the winter months, when a genuine flame can help reduce your energy bill.

While open fires and stoves with decorative designs are popular but the solid fuel furnace is ideal for larger rooms as they provide full domestic central heating and hot water. The system makes use of a pellet, coal or wood-fired stove to heat the air. The heated air is circulated through a heating system around the home and is blown through vents into the room ducting.

A solid fuel fire requires a grate, ash pan and chimney for exhausting gas and smoke. The chimney should be lined with a suitable material and must meet the relevant regulations. The fire suite must also be installed by a licensed technician and regularly inspected for safety and performance. The accumulation of creosote in the chimney is a major fire cause in solid fuel appliances. Proper care and maintenance is therefore crucial.

In the end, solid fuel fireplaces typically cost more to operate than gas fires. There are many designs and fuel options to fit any style of interior.

Many customers are looking for a multi combination fire suite that can be used with either a gas or an open fuel fire. This is not currently possible as the two types of fire operate in different ways.

It is important to select dry and well-seasoned logs to ensure that they burn safely. This will increase the efficiency of the fuel, because less moisture will be lost during the process of burning. It is also important to avoid burning wet or green logs, as they can lead to a buildup of creosote and lead to chimney fires. A matured log will produce more heat than a log that is raw, and so is worth the extra large electric fireplace with mantel investment.
