Frequently asked in Bakersfield

What is the downside of an electric fireplace?

Some users find the flame effect isn't quite as authentic as a real wood-burning fire. Also, electric fireplaces require power, so they won't operate during a power outage. The professionals can discuss these points and help you determine if they are significant concerns for your Bakersfield home.

Do electric fireplaces use lots of electricity?

The visual flame effect uses minimal electricity, comparable to a standard light bulb. The heater uses more power, similar to a space heater, but it's efficient for warming a specific room. We can give you a better idea of typical energy usage when you call about your Bakersfield installation.

Are electric fireplaces a good idea?
