How to Choose the Right Height for an on the Wall Fireplace
A fireplace that is mounted on the wall can be a stylish focal point in any living space. It can be hung either above the couch or the sitting area to create a warm and cozy environment for your family, and guests.
Some models can be partially built into the wall for an aesthetically pleasing look. This will require more work and some DIYers may need to step outside of their comfort areas.
Height
Deciding on the ideal size for an on the wall fireplace is among the most crucial decisions to be made when constructing the media wall. While the fireplace must be low enough to be easily viewed from most seating positions, it should also be high enough that it can produce sufficient warmth for an ambiance that is comfortable for the living space.
It is essential to take into consideration the amount of heat that the wall mounted fire produces and the distance to the floor and any other equipment that could be placed over the fire. If you set the gas or electric fireplace too low, it will lose heat rapidly and combustible substances can easily ignite. This can cause a bioethanol fire in the house and decrease the efficiency of the fireplace.
The best way to avoid this is to select an appliance with an opening for the firebox at a low level, or an efficient chimney venting system. This will ensure that heat is dissipated effectively and safely.
Another thing to consider is the purpose for which the room is used for. If it's mostly used for entertainment, socialising and relaxing, a bigger fireplace is an ideal choice. However, if it's intended to be used as a second source of heating, a lower fireplace would be more suitable.
The majority of people prefer to place their fireplaces at eye level when they are sitting in a chair, which is about 40-42 inches off the floor. Some people mount their fireplaces under a TV as well, and this could be done, as long as the TV does not get too close to it or suffer from the heat.
Based on the type of fireplace, it can also be useful to consider what kind of storage might be required above the fire. For instance, if have an electric fire it could be beneficial to install a sideboard cupboard or credenza on top of the fireplace to keep the surface free of clutter. This can give an airy, modern fireplace look. It also makes the wood fireplace seem larger.
Installation
A fireplace that is mounted on the wall is a wonderful alternative to a media wall. It's perfect for homeowners who want a sleeker look that is more in keeping with the design of the wall and it's easier to install than a fireplace that is built-in.
Start by choosing a location that allows you to move easily around the fireplace. Also, make sure that there are no combustible objects within the area. Take a measurement of the length of your wall to ensure that it's wide enough to accommodate a fireplace with a height of at least 40-42". Installing a fireplace can be an intimidating task. It is best to get help from someone.
Depending on the model of fireplace you choose, the fireplace may require a direct connection to the wall studs or an existing bracket that is mounted on the wall. If you're installing a direct to wall model, make sure to check the owner's manual for specifics on how to install it. If you're installing a bracket-mounted unit you'll need to attach the bracket with toggle-bolt anchors as well as screws. Make sure the bracket is secured to at least two studs, and make use of a stud finder to determine the locations at which you'll require screws.
Once the bracket is in place and the fireplace is attached, use the tabs at the bottom of the fireplace and the hooks at the top of the bracket. Follow the directions in the owner's manual if your model comes with an opening in the front of the glass that needs to be removed prior to installation.
You'll first need to install the frame of your electric fireplace on the spot you have designated on the wall. Then, it will be attached to the bracket. After you've completed this step then you can use a drill to create holes for the mounting bracket or sand any rough areas on the wall.
Once you've made the holes, insert the rawl plugs and screw them into the mounting bracket. Some models of wall-mounted fireplaces have hooks or slots on the back, so you can simply place the hooks at the back of the fireplace into the slots on the mounting bracket.
Safety
The good news is that both electric and ethanol wall fireplaces (Yomoblog explained in a blog post) are safe to use when the proper safety measures are in place. This includes regular inspections of the appliance to ensure that it is in good working order and that no signs of wear and tear are present. Keep the fireplace away from any material that is flammable like furniture, carpets, or paper. Keep children away from the fire and ensure they are aware of the dangers. Also, make sure to shut off the fireplace prior to going to sleep or leaving the home.

It is important to be aware of the dimensions as well as the weight requirements and the clearance zone for heat. Check the zones of heat for the fireplace and the TV in the event that you intend to install an electric fireplace with a TV. The extra weight from the TV could exert pressure on the fireplace and cause it to collapse and injure you or your family members.
It is also important to be aware of the fact that electric and ethanol wall fireplaces are capable of producing large amounts of heat which can burn you if you come close enough. If you have kids, consider putting a safe-to-touch screen on your fireplace to keep your children from burning their hands. This screen remains at a low temperature when the fireplace is on and won't burn anyone who touches it.
To prevent sparks from accidentally sparking flammable items like toys and books avoid them from the fireplace. It is also important to regularly clean your fireplace to get rid of any accumulation of soot or ash. This will decrease the chance of an fire.
