Can I Use the Ingleside Electric Fireplace Year Round?
Depending on your climate and lifestyle, you may only use your wood fireplace a few times a year. A wood fire takes planning, time and a drop in temperature. An electric fireplace gives you the freedom to turn on the heat and flames with the touch of a button. The Ingleside’s dual heat and flame controls work independently, so you can enjoy the flames without the heat when desired. In colder weather, two heat settings warm a room up to 400 square feet, helping you save on heating costs.Will the Ingleside Electric Fireplace Fit In My Wood Fireplace?
