The Transformation of Electric Fires
By [http://ezinearticles.com/?expert=Keith_Barrett]Keith Barrett
The increase in sales of electric fires in recent years suggests that these products have been a real success story. In this article we look at their transformation. How have these products been improved and updated to appeal to more consumers?
An electric fire was once the sign of a property that wasn't quite as modern as it could be. Gas central heating was a more modern and cost effective way to heat a home. If someone was making use of an electric appliance then it often suggested that they were living in a property that did not have central heating.
Yet times have certainly changed. It's now quite common to see electric fires being used in all sorts of properties, including houses, restaurants and bars that are clearly aiming for a modern look. So why should this be the case? What has changed to make these appliances more desirable?
Looking closely at this success story, it's possible to identify a number of changes that have all come together to help explain the improving situation. The first is that manufacturers have been looking to improve the products in order to make them more desirable. This is particularly obvious in the case of wall mounted fires. These appliances often give out relatively little heat, but it seems that heating is no longer their primary purpose. They are being chosen because they look good and add atmosphere to a room, as well as that sense of contemporary style.
So what about electric fire suites? These are sold as a means of providing heat, so why have they become so popular? One key reason is that many home owners love the thought of having a roaring fire blazing away in the fireplace.
Unfortunately, this is not always possible to achieve, particularly in newer properties where there may even not be a chimney. In order to get the same effect, many people have looked for alternatives. Electric fire suites are perfect because they offer flexibility and ease of installation.
Most importantly, they don't need to make use of an existing open fireplace. In fact, they allow you to create the effect of a fireplace. With a wide range of products available, you can choose a model that suits your home and your family. Given improvements in design and the flexibility that they offer, it's not surprising that electric fires are appearing in more and more homes.
