An electric heater can use a small amount of energy and heat a room thoroughly in a short space of time.<\/p>\n<p>It\u2019s also worth noting that electric fires don\u2019t require a chimney, so when space is at a premium in your home, an electric fire could be perfect for you. You\u2019ll often find that <a href=\"https:\/\/www.realflame.co.uk\/electric-fires\">electric fires in London<\/a> are extremely popular, due to the fact that homes and flats in the capital simply don\u2019t have the space for a chimney.<\/p>\n<p>Although electric fireplaces do not directly produce any combustion emissions, they are still powered by electricity, which is likely to be utilising some form of natural gas to power it. Whilst electric fires are undoubtedly better for the environment than a wood or gas fire, it should be noted that a small amount of emissions will be created when using an electric fire.<\/p>\n<p>One perfect example of an electric fire which stands out from the crowd, whilst boasting a significantly reduced carbon footprint, is the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.realflame.co.uk\/Salisbury-Optimyst-Electric-Stove\">Dimplex Sunningdale Opti-V Electric Stove<\/a>. Combining the sheer beauty of a real fire with the sustainability of an electric fire is a match made in heaven, and this stove certainly adds a considerable amount of style and sophistication to any room you choose to install it into.<\/p>\n<p>We understand the allure of a traditional log burning fire, and there is nothing quite like seeing a naked flame dancing on a cold winter\u2019s night; that\u2019s why this electric fire\u2019s authentic aesthetics are complimented by the Opti-V visual technology to give the impression of a real log burning fire, without the carbon emissions.
