Installing Electric Logs in an Existing Fireplace Opening 

Wonder if there's any tips on what to do about that. Maybe an electrician can wire an outlet inside the fireplace area so that you don't have to visibly stick out the plug.

@@DavidLuu my electrician said he needs to give the electric fireplace log set its own circuit on the electrical panel

@@marylaereman4981 that makes sense for safety, but that's for the panel. So did/will the electrician wire a dedicated outlet inside the fireplace that connects to the electrical panel?

The insturction manual and pictures are terrible. Each log should be marked or numbered for each connector. Hopefully, the online promo picture will be helpful. I called the help line and was told to leave a message. Not impressed. Hopefully, I wil like it once it is set up

Space heaters are the cause of fires. Not electric inserts.

There is a difference between a electric space heater and a electric fireplace insert. It's the space heater that people miss use and start a fire.

It's only stupid if you are dumb enough to not close the flu before you install it.

CardiacCat flu is not air-tight; most of the heat gets out. heat wants to go up and goes up even if it finds a pee-hole

+Kiumars Irani give us all a break... close the dam flue & even DUCK TAPE THE SEAMS if you like.

John L Duck taping around a heater is a very stupid idea. Are you Australian?

You have no clue how a Electric Log Insert Works & Operates. There is a operating fan that blows the heat outwards from the front of the unit into the room. NO HEAT IS GOING THROUGH THE CLOSED FLUE. EVEN IF YOU SEALED THE FLUE FLAP SEEM WITH DUCK TAPE, HAVE NO FIRE TO BURN THE TAPE OFF AS IT IS USED TO STOP ANY MINOR DRAFT GOING UP THE LEAKING FLUE FLAP. Now you must be Yugoslavian because you cannot grasp the concept of how a electric fireplace log works.
