Is it ok to place a wall-mounted electric fireplace in the bathroom?

Will the moisture in the bathroom affect the electric wall-mounted fireplace?


Answer
You will need to have something that is approved for use in a bathroom. That shouldn't be all that difficult as electric bathroom heaters are very common.
The important thing is to make sure you have the appropriate electrical work done.
Make sure that the approved heater is installed in the appropriate manner and that everything is safe.
We don't want anyone to be electrocuted!
If you have any doubts of questions, seek the services of a licensed electrician.
He should know the rules and regulations for this installation and be able to wire the heater in correctly.

Just a thought, this might be a fairly big job... Especially if there is no wiring available in the bathroom....

Good luck.

Is an Electric Fireplace Worth it?

Heating in our house is starting to get unaffordable for us. Does anyone have an Electric Fireplace in their Bedroom? Does it keep you warm at night?
Which would you recommend, electric or Fuel?
It says it uses as much Electricity as a Coffee Machine.



Answer
Having an electric fire is your bathroom would be against building regulations as electricity and water don't mix, your best option is an oil filled towel heater. I installed one last winter and left it on all the time as once they are hot they do not use much power and it kept the whole upstairs at a reasonable temperature.
Gas or coal is always cheaper than electric for all other fires, I bought my electric fires from http://www.directfiresonline.co.uk they were really helpful advising me on which ones to buy as they have different power outputs and they also got me my bathroom heater even though they don't stock them!
