What Are Fire Suites?
Fire suites consist of hearths, surrounds, and other fireplace components. They can be an impressive focal point for your living space and add to the beauty of a gas or electric fireplace.
Aluminized suits reflect radiant heat while insulating against high ambient temperatures, and are often found in areas such as welding operations or steel mills. Selecting the right protective suit is a matter of determining the risk your employees could be exposed to.
Gas
Gas fire sets offer modern and sleek version of fireplace designs, with the benefit of flame effects and heat output. They can be fitted in homes that have chimneys. They are also suitable for homes with pre-cast flues. They can be attached to the wall or built into the hearth.
These types of fires operate on an natural gas supply that is connected to your central heating system or to an external propane tank. It is important to consult a licensed gas engineer to ensure that your gas installation is safe and executed properly.

The suite can be fitted to your home with or without a chimney and is suitable for homes with pre-cast flues constructed using clay or concrete blocks that are incorporated into your walls.
A hole in the wall gas fireplace may be the best solution for those with flat walls. These gas fires are wall-mounted and operate with natural gas or LPG. They usually come with radiant bars that can produce a lot heat.
A balanced flue gas fireplace can be put in homes that have chimneys. These fires are powered by natural gas, which is transported from the ground via an extensive network of seven reception points along the coast that are also referred to "beach terminals". From here the gas is transported to your home, where it is used for heating, and any by-products are vented directly back to the outside.
The final type of gas fire is vented or non-vented. Vented gas fireplaces can be installed within your existing chimney, or a metal chimney that was built by a manufacturer. The exhaust is sent outside through the flexible lining or single pipe in the chimney breast. Non-vented fires make use of a hotbox to create the appearance of a flame. The heat is then transferred through your room's air and out of the chimney breast.
Electric
Electric fire suites are perfect for those who desire the look of a fireplace but don't want to go through the hassle of chimneys, flues, or other structural work. They can be put in place easily and placed flush against a wall and plugging into a power outlet. They are available in a range of styles, ranging from modern to traditional, and are incredibly versatile.
Electric fire suites, unlike gas fires, emit no heat. Instead, they use an innovation known as "flame effects" to give the appearance of real flames and a smoke. This is achieved by with LED lights and mirrors that create a realistic glow. Some of the more advanced models make use of water vapor and colored lighting to create glowing flames that appear holographic. This is a popular option and can appear very realistic.
There are many different types of electric fire suites, from inset to wall mounted. The Elgin & Hall Chollerton electric suite is an inset design that features a stunning glass front and comes in a stylish Black Nickel or Chrome contemporary finish.

When choosing an electric fire suite, you must take into consideration the kind of fireplace you want.

Solid Fuel
A solid fuel fire set-up brings the warm traditional style back to the heart of your home. The flickering flames from coal or real wood logs create a warm glow that is soothing. It's no wonder this type of fireplace is still in use particularly in winter when a real fire can help lower your energy bills.
While open fires and stoves with decorative designs are popular but solid fuel furnaces are ideal for larger rooms as they provide full domestic central heating and hot water. This type of furnace uses a pellet, coal or wood fired stove to heat the air. This air is then circulated around the house through a heating system, and then blown into ducting in the room through vents.
A solid fuel fire requires a grate, ash pan that is below the fire and a chimney to exhaust the smoke and gases. A chimney has to be lined with a suitable material and must be in compliance with the relevant regulations. The fire suite must be installed by a technician who is licensed and regularly checked to ensure safety and performance. Creosote accumulation in the chimney is an important fire hazard in appliances with solid fuel. Proper care and maintenance are therefore essential.
This is why solid fuel fireplaces typically cost more than gas fireplaces. There are many styles and fuel choices to match any decor.
Many customers are looking for a multi combination fire suite that can be utilized with either a gas fire or a solid fuel fire. However, this isn't currently feasible since the two fire types work in a different way.
To ensure safe burning, it is important to select dried and seasoned logs. This will allow the fuel to burn more efficiently as less moisture is lost when burning off. Avoid burning wet or green logs, as they may cause creosote accumulation and chimney fires. A well-seasoned log also generates more heat than a new log and is therefore worth the extra expense.
