Let's start with the basics. The 3 Sided Electric Fireplace 1800mm is a beauty. It gives you a 360 - degree view of the flames, making it a centerpiece in any room.

Now, onto the power consumption. Most of these fireplaces come with multiple heat settings. Usually, there are at least two main settings: a low - heat setting and a high - heat setting.

Low - Heat Setting

The low - heat setting on our 3 Sided Electric Fireplace 1800mm is great for those days when it's not too cold outside. Maybe it's a mild autumn evening or a slightly chilly spring night. On this setting, the fireplace typically consumes around 750 - 900 watts.

Why is this important? Well, lower power consumption means lower electricity bills. If you're someone who likes to keep the fireplace on for a long time, the low - heat setting is your friend. You can enjoy the cozy ambiance without worrying too much about your energy costs.

Let's say you run the fireplace on the low - heat setting for about 5 hours a day. With a power consumption of 800 watts (for the sake of easy calculation), the energy used in a day would be 800 watts x 5 hours = 4000 watt - hours or 4 kilowatt - hours (kWh). If your electricity rate is, say, $0.15 per kWh, you'd be spending about $0.60 a day on running the fireplace on the low - heat setting.

High - Heat Setting

When it's really cold outside, you're going to want to crank up the heat. The high - heat setting on our 3 Sided Electric Fireplace 1800mm is designed to warm up a room quickly. On this setting, the fireplace usually consumes around 1500 - 1800 watts.

This higher power consumption is to be expected because it's working harder to produce more heat. But don't let that scare you. You don't have to run it on high - heat all the time. Just use it when you need a quick burst of warmth.

Let's do another calculation. If you run the fireplace on the high - heat setting at 1500 watts for 2 hours a day, the energy used would be 1500 watts x 2 hours = 3000 watt - hours or 3 kWh. At the same electricity rate of $0.15 per kWh, you'd be spending about $0.45 a day on this high - heat usage.

No - Heat (Flame Only) Setting

One of the cool things about our 3 Sided Electric Fireplace 1800mm is the no - heat or flame - only setting. This setting is perfect for those times when you want the ambiance of a fireplace without the extra heat. Maybe it's a warm summer night, or you just want to create a relaxing atmosphere.

On the flame - only setting, the power consumption is extremely low, usually around 30 - 50 watts. That's like running a small light bulb. So, you can enjoy the flickering flames for hours on end without hardly noticing it on your electricity bill.

Factors Affecting Power Consumption

It's not just the heat settings that affect power consumption. There are a few other factors too.

Room Size: A larger room will require more energy to heat up. If you're trying to warm a big open - plan living area, the fireplace might have to work a bit harder, which could increase power consumption.

Insulation: If your room is well - insulated, the fireplace won't have to run as long to maintain a comfortable temperature. On the other hand, a poorly insulated room will cause the fireplace to use more energy as it tries to compensate for the heat loss.

Thermostat Settings: If you set the thermostat on the fireplace to a higher temperature, it will use more power to reach and maintain that temperature.

Energy - Saving Tips

If you're looking to save even more on energy costs while using our 3 Sided Electric Fireplace 1800mm, here are some tips:

  • Use the Low - Heat Setting More: As we saw earlier, the low - heat setting uses less power. Try to use it as much as possible, especially on milder days.
  • Pair with Good Insulation: Make sure your room is well - insulated. This can significantly reduce the amount of energy the fireplace needs to use.
  • Use the Flame - Only Setting: When you don't need the heat, switch to the flame - only setting. It's a great way to enjoy the fireplace without using much power.
