Charmglow Electric Fireplace Review

More and more, homeowners are starting to realize that their fireplaces are not just for warming up the house. There is an aesthetic element to it as well. Homeowners want the heat when the weather is cold, and they want to fireplace to beautify the home as well.

The elements of a fireplace.



The fireplace consists of two separate elements - the visual element, and the heat element. The visual element is made up of the entire design of the fireplace, as well as the flame. The heat is expected to come from the flame. But there is a small problem.

Traditionally, most fireplaces just focus on figuring out how to get the flame to burn cleanly. That's because older fireplaces tend to dirty the house with lots of dirt and soot. On top of that, when the fire dies off, there is a messy pile of ash left to be cleared off. Otherwise, it looks rather unsightly. Then there is the problem of smoke. Homeowners want the heat, but no one wants smoke in the house while the fire is burning.

So fireplace contractors started experimenting with different types of fuel to add to the fireplace. All that in the hope of getting the flame to burn with less (or no) soot, and to burn without smoke.

Charmglow fireplaces.

An innovative manufacturer, Charmglow, seems to have solved all the challenges. They offer fireplaces in a wide range of designs, and they come at affordable prices. The fireplaces take care of the aesthetic element, as well as the functional element, which is to provide adequate heat when needed. So how does the product work?

Charmglow fireplaces actually choose to separate the heat from the actual fire. In other words, you can have heat without having an actual fire burning. The heat is generated by a 1500 watt heater fan (i.e. by electricity). That means there is no messy wood to burn, no soot, no smoke, and no mess.

But you can't call a fireplace without a fire can you? To overcome this challenge, Charmglow fireplaces are able to generate a holographic visual simulation of a fire burning. You can have the fire burning while the heater is on, or while it is off. It doesn't really matter. The two components are kept separate.

This offers some interesting options for the homeowner. During winter, the homeowner can choose to keep the heater and the fire on. That way, the entire family can enjoy the heat, as well as the visual appearance of the fire. If the fire is distracting, it can be turned off. On the other hand, if it's summer, the fire can be turned on to enhance the look and feel of the home, while keeping the heat off. That way, the Charmglow fireplace becomes a purely decorative item.

Due to its unique approach to the fireplace problem, and its affordable price, Charmglow fireplaces are getting more and more popular with homeowners. Perhaps you should consider getting one too.
