The Cozy Room and Smokless Fireplaces

The need for a wood-burning fireplace is unnecessary these days. Even though there is a certain quaint warmth and rustic feel to having a real fireplace some homeowners are choosing another alternative.

That alternative is the smokeless fireplace. Smokeless fireplaces offer a functional and decorative element that people have grown to appreciate.

This is the ideal solution for a homeowner who wants to create a cozy, warm ambiance in a room but does not want the hassle and cleanup of a real fireplace.

Some homeowners are even bricking up their real fireplaces to add this form of functional and beautiful decor to their home.

Smokeless fireplaces are a great solution to the real thing and can add to that romantic feel and environment when you want it with the touch of a button or even via remote control.

These are even great for spending some time alone with a book and a cup of hot cocoa. The sounds of a real fireplace can lull you to sleep and provide you with a way to relax after a long, grueling day.

You can read more details about modern wall mounted smokeless fireplaces online.

Indoor smokeless fireplaces come in a variety of types and styles as discussed below.

Models, Brands and Types Oh My!

Wall-mounted fireplaces come in various shapes, sizes, and types. Some are like a flat-screen TV while others are more ornate with decorative framing. They do not require real wood or a vent, they are safe and clean.

Examples of Brands, Models, and Types

  • Dimplex Sahara RWF-DG Wall Mounted Stove
  • SEI Stainless and Glass Wall Mount Gel Fuel Fireplace FA5812

The lack of cleanup and the ability to create that special ambiance in a room are the two top appealing points of this kind of fireplace. You can get the full scoop about wall mount smokeless fireplaces by reading online and comparison shop at online venues like Amazon.

The Electric Fireplace

Electric fireplaces are ideal if you're working with a tight budget. No chimney is needed, and it is easily installed almost anywhere you can plug it in.

One example of this kind of fireplace is the

The modern designs of the electric fireplace can be made from brick, stone, wood or marble. Though it is more often the aesthetics that are given priority when choosing an electric fireplace.

Some people think that it’s all about the fumeless heater, but it's much more than that to most consumers in the market for an electric fireplace. Duraflame, Lasko, Dimplex, and Lifesmart are some of the brands of electric fireplaces.

A Vent-Free Fireplace

The vent-free option for fireplaces is also referred to as ODS (Oxygen Depletion Sensor) models.

The ODS fireplace eliminates the dilemma of the damper that must stay open with a direct vent fireplace.

The gas is securely linked to the hearth, so flames burn without a vent, which is a clean and cost-efficient alternative to real fireplaces.

What If You Have No Space for a Fireplace?

Not everyone lives in a house or apartment that has enough space for a fireplace. One alternative is a tabletop fireplace or watching fireplace videos online or through a streaming service on your television.

For example, you can watch and listen to a real burning fire from YouTube whenever you want.

You will need to use your imagination, but it's better than no fireplace at all.

Just like a real fireplace or an electric or gas fireplace, you can sip on your cocoa, wrap up in a warm blanket, read a book, watch movies, or play board or video games. Whatever your heart desires.
