What Are Fire Suites?
Fire suites include hearths, surrounds, and other fireplace components. They can be a stunning focal point in your living space and can enhance the beauty of the electric or gas fireplace.
Aluminized suits reflect radiant heat, while protecting against high temperatures, and are often found in areas such as steel mills or welding operations. Knowing the degree of danger your workers could be exposed to aids in selecting the best protection suit for the job.
Gas
Gas fire suites are modern and sleek approach to fireplace design. They provide the advantages of a flame effect, as well as a heat output. They can be fitted in homes that have a chimney. They are also suitable for homes with pre-cast flues. They can be attached to the wall or built into the hearth.
These kinds of fires operate on an natural gas supply that is connected to your central heating system or an external propane tank. It is crucial to collaborate with a certified gas engineer to ensure your gas installation is safe and carried out properly.
The Waney Ashford Solid Oak Gas Fire Suite blends rustic appeal with traditional design, featuring the full Waney Ashford Solid Oak Fireplace and is complemented by the classic Pureglow Blenheim Gas Fire to give character and warmth to your home. This suite is suitable for homes that have pre-cast flues made from concrete or bricks in the walls.
A hole in the wall for a gas fireplace could be the ideal solution for those who have flat walls. These kinds of gas fires can be fitted to your wall and work with either natural or LPG. They usually include radiant bars and are great for producing plenty of heat. They are typically with large control handles that are simple to operate for people who are disabled in mobility.
A balanced flue gas fire can be put in homes without or with chimneys. These fires run on natural gas, which is supplied from the ground via a network of pipelines to seven main reception points along the coast - often referred to as beach terminals. The gas is then taken to your home, where it can be used for heating. The by-products of the fire are vented to the outside.
The last type of gas fireplace is vented or not vented. Vented gas fireplaces can be set up in your existing chimney system or a chimney made of metal constructed by an industry-specific manufacturer. The exhaust is vented outside through the flexible lining or single pipe inside the chimney breast. Non-vented fires, however, utilize a hotbox to produce the appearance of a flame. The heat is then transferred to your room's air and out of your chimney's breast.
Electricity
Electric fire suites can be a great option for those who are looking to create the appearance of a fireplace, but don't want to deal with chimneys, flues, or other major structural work. They can be put in place easily by putting them in a flush position against the wall and plugging into a power outlet. They are available in a variety of styles, from contemporary to traditional, and are incredibly versatile.
Contrary to gas fires fire suites don't release heat but instead employ the technology known as 'flame effect' to recreate the look of real flames and smoke. They are made using LED lights and reflective mirrors to create an authentic glow. Some of the more advanced models employ water vapor and color-changing lighting to create holographic flickering fires. This is a very popular option and looks quite realistic.
There are a variety of electric fire suites, from inset to wall mounted. Elgin & Hall Chollerton is an inset electric suite that comes with a fashionable Black Nickel finish or Chrome contemporary finish. It's perfect for a modern or contemporary living room. Also, the stunning Elgin & Hall Vitalia is a luxurious Marble electric suite with exquisite detailing and an angled stepped design that fits into traditional and modern living rooms.
Some of the more sophisticated electric fireplace suites can be controlled by thermostats and timer options. This means that they can be set to shut off automatically at a specific time or after the room reaches a desired temperature. This helps to save money and energy by heating only the room only when it is needed.
You should also think about the fireplace you prefer when selecting an electric fire suite. A few of our customers prefer to pair their fire suite with a hearth and surround, while others choose a simple mantelpiece or an open-fronted electric fire.

Solid Fuel
Solid fuel fire suites bring the traditional, cozy look to your home. The flickering flames that come from coal or real wood logs create a warm glow which is soothing. This type of fireplace is extremely popular, especially during the winter months, when a genuine flame can lower your energy consumption.
Solid fuel furnaces are ideal for larger rooms because they can provide central heating and hot running water. The system makes use of wood burners pellet heater or a coal fired stove to warm air. This air is then circulated around the house through a heating system and then blown into ducting in the room via vents.
A solid fuel fire requires a grate, ash pan below the fire, as well as an exhaust chimney to eliminate the smoke and gases. A chimney must be lined with a suitable product and must be in compliance with the relevant regulations. The fire suit should be installed by a technician who is licensed and regularly inspected to ensure safety and performance. Creosote accumulation in the chimney is a major fire cause in appliances that use solid fuel. Proper care and maintenance are therefore vital.
In the end, solid fuel fireplaces typically cost more to run than gas fireplaces. There are a variety of designs and fuel options to suit any interior design.
Many customers are interested in a multi-combination fire suite that can be utilized with either a gas or an open fuel fire. This isn't possible at the moment as the two types of fire work in different ways.
It is crucial to select dry and well-seasoned logs to ensure that they burn safely. This will allow the fuel to burn more efficiently because less moisture is lost burning off. It is also essential to avoid burning damp or green logs since they can cause a build up of creosote, which can cause chimney fires. A well-seasoned log produces more heat than a fresh log and is therefore worth the extra cost.
