Inset vs. wall-hung
Media wall electric fires come in two basic styles: wall-mounted and inset. Inset models, such as the Vision Futura 1500 or the Evonic Halo 1500 XT, are built into the wall and offer a flush finish, seamlessly blending in with the walls surrounding it to create a neat appearance. However, inset electric fireplaces require an opening already in place and are a little more expensive than their free-standing counterparts.
The most efficient electric media wall fires, like the Hall and Elgin Pryzm Arteon 3 are wall-hung. They are easy to install and don't require an existing opening in the wall since they aren't recessed into the wall. They are more flexible than inset electric fireplaces, with some models featuring a wide range of different designs and trims to fit your style. Wall-mounted models are still able to protrude from the wall and may not suit all room designs. They also can hinder the flow of air in smaller rooms, as they'll likely spread heat upwards instead of across the room.

Electric fires are the perfect addition to the media wall. They create an element of interest that is mesmerising and enjoyable to sit in front. Modern fires come with a variety of modern features to improve your home with, including the option of a flame-effect-only setting that conserves energy, as well as a cooling air blowing feature which is ideal for hot summer evenings.
A media wall is an area for your entertainment setup, typically equipped with a TV and a sound system, but could also contain gaming consoles and other devices that you frequently use. This kind of space is a modern response to the entertainment centers of the past and can offer a sleek, organized look while making floor space available in the room.
Modern electric fires can be placed on the wall, and based on the design, they can either be freestanding or inset. Inset fires are designed to be inserted partially into the fireplace opening, which makes it easier to install and looks more integrated in your living spaces. Freestanding fires like the Gallery Collection Hopton and Dimplex Danville are great for those who don't have a fireplace recess and can be moved between rooms to allow for greater flexibility.
No matter what method of installation you decide to use, always put the fire in proximity to an electrical outlet to ensure you can connect the device to test it prior to fitting. You'll also want to locate the fire away from any combustible materials, as per regulations.
Be aware that the majority of electric fireplaces for media wall have a limited output of heat and are best used in conjunction with your central heating system. They are not suited for heating large spaces, and can only warm a room. Some models come with a convenient remote that has multiple heat settings and backlighting choices to suit your mood or the ambience.
