When purchasing a fireplace, most buyers consider getting one that offers aesthetics and provides warmth and coziness, especially during cold months. Both gas and electric fireplaces are great. But your choice between the two will be mainly determined by how you intend to use your fireplace.
Let’s look at some factors that could make an electric fireplace your best choice.
The primary advantage of an electric fireplace over a gas fireplace is that they are cheaper to install and operate. So you do not have to own a home to install a fireplace. You can easily install a free-standing electric fireplace if you live in a rental apartment or a condo. They are portable and do not have any ventilation requirements. Hence you can move with it when you relocate to a new home.
