I bought an electric fireplace but the insert that came with it is purely decorative. It doesn't produce any heat. Just light and sound. Is it possible to replace this insert with an insert that does produce heat electrically.
Answer
Yes. We recently bought a small insert for our living room fireplace. It has a 1500 watt heater with 2 fan speeds. It is energy efficient using only .08/hr without heat and .12/hr. with the heat on. We also have a plasma wall mounted electric fireplace on the family room wall. It is really neat and also economical to operate. 1500 watt heater, and the same specs as the other one. The make of these fireplaces is Dimplex perhaps you can look them up on the net. Cheers, Terry

What do I need to do to mount a 32 inch LCD television on a stone wall?
Q. I want to mount it above my fireplace. What do I need to do, and what tools will I need to have to do it?
Answer
Aren't you asking for trouble when you use the fireplace and the heat rising onto the LCD?
Furthermore the electric cord and the connection to the cable or satelite will also be exposed to some of the heat generated. Are you really lacking in space so that you can't put the television on an ordinary wall?
Other things to consider when chosing a wall to place the LCD. You need to be able to stop the natural sunlight glare that would detract from viewing the picture. Make sure you have the electrical outlet close to the television and other devices that you are using (and don't have too many devices using the same outlet)
Make sure that the mount is strong enough to carry the weight, we test our mount by having a man hang from the mount.
Other considerations: some consideration is given to external stereo speakers. Make sure the sound sounds balanced from the spot that you are most likely going to view the picture.
If you still are going to drill into the fireplace stone wall make sure the holes are going to be as centered (not on the edge of a rock) as possible. Use a carbide bit in a hammer drill device. (Cool the bit every so often by water and wear eye and ear protection)
