15 Lessons Your Boss Wished You'd Known About Fire Suites

What Are Fire Suites?

Fire suites include hearths, surrounds, and other components of a fireplace. They can be a stunning focal point for your living space and can enhance the beauty of a gas or electric fireplace.

Aluminized suits are used in a variety of settings, including welding operations and steel mills. They reflect radiant heat while insulating from high ambient temperatures. Knowing the threat your workers may be exposed to assists in deciding on the most suitable protection suit for the job.

Gas

Gas fire suites offer an elegant and modern electric fireplace suite approach to fireplace designs, with the benefits of flame effect combined with heat output. They can be installed in homes with or without chimneys. They can also be installed in homes that have pre-cast chimneys. They can be mounted on the wall or incorporated into the fireplace.

These types of fires are powered by a natural-gas supply that is connected to your central heating system or an external propane tank. It is essential to work with a certified gas engineer to ensure that your gas installation is safe and completed correctly.

If you have an unflattering wall an opening in the wall gas fire may be the perfect solution. These types of gas fires can be fitted to the wall and operate with either natural or LPG. They usually have radiant bars that can generate a lot heat.

Another type of gas fire is a balanced flue fire that can be fitted to homes with or without chimneys. These fires are powered by natural gas, which is delivered from the ground via pipelines that connect to seven major reception points along the coast - also known as beach terminals. From there the gas flows to your home, where it is used for heating and any products are then vented directly outside.

The final type of gas fireplace is vented or not vented. Vented gas fireplaces can be set up inside your existing chimney or a chimney made of steel constructed by a manufacturer. The exhaust is sent outside through an elongated lining or a single pipe inside the chimney breast. Non-vented gas fires, on the other hand make use of a hot box to create an effect of flame and heat that is transferred to the air inside your home and out through the chimney breast.

Electric

Electric fire suites are perfect for those who want the look of a fireplace but do not wish to go through the hassle of chimneys, flues or significant structural work. They can be put in place easily, sitting flush against a wall and plugging into a power outlet. They are available in a broad range of styles from modern to traditional and are extremely adaptable.

Contrary to gas fires fire suites don't emit heat but instead employ the technology known as 'flame effect' to recreate the look of real flames and smoke. They are made using LED lights and reflective mirrors to create an authentic glow. Some of the advanced models make use of water vapor and colored lighting to create holographic flickering fires. This is a very popular option and looks very realistic.

Electric fire suites are available in a variety of styles that range from wall-mounted to inset.

Solid Fuel

A solid fuel fireplace suite brings that cosy, traditional style back to the heart of your home. The flickering flames of real coal, wood or pebbles give off warm light and create a tranquil ambience. It's no wonder this type of fireplace is still popular particularly in winter when a fire is able to reduce your energy costs.

Solid fuel furnaces are perfect for larger rooms because they can provide central heating and hot water. The system makes use of a pellet, coal or wood-fired stove to heat the air. The heated air is then circulated throughout the house through a heating system and then blown through the ducting of the room through vents.

A solid fuel fire requires a grate and an ash pan that is below the fire as well as an exhaust chimney to eliminate the smoke and gases. The chimney should be lined with a suitable material and must meet the relevant regulations. The fire suite should be installed by a professional who is licensed and regularly checked to ensure safety and efficiency. Creosote accumulation in chimneys can be the main cause of fire in appliances that use solid fuel. Maintenance and proper care are therefore essential.

Solid fireplaces that burn fuel are more expensive to operate. There are many designs and fuel options to suit any interior design.

Many customers are interested in a multi-combined fire suite that can be used with either a gas or a solid fuel fire. However, this is not currently possible as the two types of fires operate in very different ways.

It is important to select dry and seasoned logs for safe burning. This will help the fuel burn more efficiently as less moisture is lost when burning off. Avoid burning green or wet logs, as they may cause creosote accumulation and chimney fires. A well-seasoned log produces more heat than a new log, and is worth the extra cost.
