Frequently Asked Questions

  • No special outlet or installation work is needed. Most plug-in electric fireplaces work with a standard 120-volt household wall outlet and require zero remodeling, masonry, or drywall work. Simply plug it in and turn it on, just like any other appliance.

  • No — you should never use an extension cord or power strip with an electric fireplace. The power draw of an electric fireplace is not suited for extension cords and can create an overheating or fire hazard. Always plug the unit directly into a grounded wall outlet.

  • Most plug-in electric fireplaces use approximately 1,500 watts (1.5 kWh) at full power, so you can calculate your cost by multiplying your local electricity rate by 1.5. Running just the flame effect without heat costs only a few cents per hour, making electric fireplaces significantly cheaper to operate than gas or wood-burning alternatives.

  • A standard plug-in electric fireplace running on 120V can typically heat a room up to 400 square feet, making it ideal for supplemental or zone heating. Some infrared models plugged into a standard outlet can heat spaces up to 1,000 square feet. They are not designed to serve as the sole heat source for an entire home.

  • Yes, plug-in electric fireplaces are generally considered safe for homes with children and pets because they produce no real flames, no smoke, and no carbon monoxide. The glass and exterior surfaces typically stay cool to the touch, and many models include an automatic shut-off feature that activates if the unit overheats.
