Electric Stove Fires
Electric fires are a great option for modern homes because they don't require a flue or chimney, they simply need electricity. This makes them ideal to use as a recessed fire or to create a media wall.
Electric fires are less expensive than gas stoves, which require an installation of a chimney and is installed by a professional.
No need to install a chimney or flue
Electric stove fires do not require the installation of chimneys unlike gas fires or wood burners. They can be installed on the wall of a room or even in fireplaces that are not in use anymore, and operate on a simple plug-in basis. This makes them an excellent option for homes that don't have an existing chimney, or those who are looking for an economical method to heat their home that doesn't require the maintenance and wood chopping that traditional fireplaces need.
When you burn wood over an open flame and the combustion by-products, such as creosote, may build up inside the chimney. Over time this can corrode the bricks and mortar that form the chimney, creating cracks in the walls and leaks of smoke into your living space or neighbouring rooms. To prevent this from happening, you should always have a chimney lined with a high quality flue liner. This can be installed by experts and is vital to maintaining the safety of your fireplace.
Another alternative for those who want a real log fire in their home but do not have a chimney is a gas-fired stove. These innovative fires come with a catalytic convertor that transforms harmful gases into harmless ones. They only require an energy source of gas.
A twin wall flue system can be used to fit an electric stove that burns wood without the necessity of chimney. The stainless steel pipes can be installed either internally or externally and are used to release the stove fumes into the air. These systems are fairly inexpensive, but they require installation and should be kept away from any flammable material.

Allow white electric stove to cool completely before cleaning it. When the appliance is cold, you can then begin to remove dust and dirt from the grate, heat outlets, inlets, and glass.

This can be done using dry cloths, or vacuum cleaner with a special nozzle attached (if you own one). Finally, you will want to clean the parts that emit flames that typically comprise a halogen bulb or LED strip and mirrors that are attached to rods. These can be cleaned with a dry cloth or vacuum.
It's important to keep in mind that you should not let the coils get wet. They plug into a specific kind of socket and submerging them in water can damage the appliance. If they become dirty, use a mixture made of hot dish soap, hot water or, if required, denatured alcohol. You should then wipe the coils down and re-affix any drip pans you've removed.
