Inset electric fireplaces are more costly and require an existing opening.

However, media wall fire place -hung models can be a little slender from the wall, so they may not be suitable for all room designs. They can also hinder the circulation of air in smaller rooms because they'll probably spread heat upwards rather than across the room.

Most modern electric fires for media walls are affixed to the wall and are either inset or freestanding depending on the design you choose.

Whatever method of installation you choose, you should always put the fire near an electrical outlet to ensure you can plug in the device and test it before fitting. It is also important to place the fire away from flammable substances, as per the regulations.
