Firesuites - The Perfect Way to Warm Your Home
The fireplace suite is made up of four main components: an inset fire, surround/mantelpiece, hearth and back panel. It can be used with gas, solid fuel or electric.
The suit you choose to wear must conform to industry specific safety standards like NFPA in order to ensure adequate protection from hazards identified. For example proximity suits are designed to protect firefighters from radiant heat and molten metal splashes.
Gas
Gas fires are the perfect option for modern homes, since they can be used to control the flame effect and the output of heat from the easy control located inside the fire. Fireplace Megastore has a wide selection of gas suites from leading manufacturers such as Elgin & Hall, Burley & Gazco and many more in a variety, finishes and sizes to fit both traditional and contemporary homes. Suites come with a choice between traditional chimney flue fireplaces powered by gas and balanced flue fireplaces that are suitable for homes that do not have chimneys.
Gas fire suites can completely transform the look of a room if they are properly installed in the right chimney opening. The main components of a fireplace suite are the surround/mantelpiece, hearth and back panel. Based on the style of fire chosen the surround can be constructed from made or solid stone and is designed to complement the fire in terms of size as well as colour and shape.
Traditionally, ready assembled electric fire suites who had Pre-Cast flues were confined to gas fireplaces with a shallow inset that were placed on the top of a fire place. But now, thanks to the Earlston 950 from Elgin & Hall's ingenuous design you can add a stylish designer marble fireplace suite which includes a landscape feature gas flame that puts the flames on stage. This superb suite is suitable for installation on a flat wall into an existing Class 2 Pre-Cast opening and is available in either White or Manila micro marble and the option of a Bauhaus fret or chrome-finished gas fire.

During the heating process electric fireplaces employ fans to draw cool air into the chamber and then heat it again at a higher temperature before it's released back into your room. This method uses only a small amount of energy, which is excellent news for your electricity bill. Many models also have a low-level lighting setting for a gentle glow or to create an ambiance ambience within your home.

Solid fuel fireplace suites feature an ash pan and grate below the fire to contain the wood or any other solid fuels you choose to use.

Aluminized fire suits offer excellent protection against extreme temperatures and are designed to be air-conditioned. They also have lower weight than proximity suits, and are typically used in areas where employees need to move freely. Proximity suits, on the contrary, are designed to provide better insulation and are typically employed in firefighting and foundries where workers have to be close to extreme heat sources.
Style
Fire suites can be an impressive focal point in any space, offering practicality and elegance. Designed as an entire package, they include all four elements of a fireplace, including the surround/mantelpiece, hearth and back panel sets and fire, and are guaranteed to operate in harmony to create a luxuriously extravagant centre piece.
Durability is a major consideration when buying fire suits. Making investments in durability will lower costs in the long run and also save money by not having to purchase the same garment until it's time to retire five to ten years, which is the ideal timeframe. It is important to consider how well a garment can be able to withstand industrial laundering. This is an important element in maintaining compliance with safety standards and overall durability.
Aluminized Fire Suits
Created to guard from heat radiation and molten metal splashes Aluminized fire suits come with an outer layer treated with aluminum to reflect the heat and load. They are typically employed in situations which expose workers to extreme temperatures.
Proximity Fire Suits
