What is the downside of an electric fireplace?

The pros can explain the BTU ratings and realistic heating capabilities for your space.

Do electric fireplaces use lots of electricity?

When the heater is on, an electric fireplace uses electricity similar to a portable space heater. The flame effect itself is very energy-efficient. For a Portland household, the cost will depend on your local electricity rates and how often you run the heat. The specialists can help you understand the energy usage for specific models.
