Is an Electric Fireplace a Better Alternative to Gas?
What exactly makes an electric fireplace a better option?
Bask in the warm flames without polluting your own air—electric fireplaces have no carcinogenic emissions, no gas leaks, no gas smell, no smoke, and no lung irritants. Electric fireplaces are a better option for those with asthma or allergies than wood burning or gas burning fireplaces.
Since no venting or natural gas line is required, you can install these fireplaces in any room you would like (kitchen, bathroom, patio, you name it). They are safe and easy to add to a new or existing home. All you have to do is plug them in!
Touchstone’s electric fireplaces allow you to enjoy comforting, natural-looking flames without the dangers of tending a real fire. With a cool-to-the-touch front glass, these fireplaces are safe to have near children and pets.
Touchstone’s LED technology requires less energy to warm up a room, using just 5000 BTUs for a 400-square-foot space.
In general, electric fireplaces are cheaper to purchase and use, compared to gas fireplaces. A Touchstone electric fireplace costs about $50-$80 per year to operate, which is a significantly lower price than natural gas. They effectively add supplemental heat to a room, so you can lower your thermostat and save money on your heating bill as well.
For added convenience, a Touchstone Wi-Fi enabled Smart Electric Fireplace can be operated by mobile app and connected to smart home devices including Amazon Alexa® and Google Home®. More clever than gas fireplaces, Touchstone electric fireplaces have timers and auto shut off for added peace of mind.
