Wall-Mounted
Electric
fireplaces Wood that can be mounted to the wall are perfect for those who don't want cut into their walls or frame an aperture. These fireplaces have mounting brackets that permit you to mount the fireplace directly on the wall just like a flat-screen or picture TV and are able to install it yourself, although you may require assistance from a second pair of hands if your model is on the larger side. They are also great for those who rent their homes because they can easily be removed when it's time to move. They don't even leave a hole in the wall.
Some models of wall-mounted fireplaces are built flush with the wall to give a clean appearance, or you can choose to build them in part into the wall recess for added depth. Certain models, such as the Napoleon Allure Vertical Series come with a trim skirt that can cover the protrusion of the fireplace. You can also customize these models' appearance by choosing different flame and background colors to match your decor.
The main downside of a wall-mounted, freestanding electric fireplace is that it takes up floor space, and because there is no option of putting it in a wall recession, they tend to be a bit further than an ordinary freestanding model with mantel. But this is a minor disadvantage and an important thing to take into consideration when deciding on which type of fireplace is right for you.
