Inset vs wall-hung
Inset and wall-mounted media wall electric fireplaces are the two main designs. Inset models, like the Vision Futura 1500 or the Evonic Halo 1500 XT, are recessed into the wall and offer an elegant flush finish, blending in with the wall for a sleek appearance. However, inset electric fires require an opening that is already in place and can be a bit more expensive than freestanding counterparts.
The most effective media wall electric fires are wall-hung, like the Elgin & Hall Pryzm Arteon 3SL. Because they aren't inset into the wall, they don't require an opening in the wall and are comparatively inexpensive to put up. Certain models are available in various finishes and trims that can be customised to fit your style. Despite this, wall-hung models can be a little slender from the wall, which means they're not suitable for every room. They can also hinder the circulation of air in smaller spaces because they'll likely radiate heat upwards rather than across the space.

Modern electric fires for media walls are affixed to the wall and are either inset or freestanding depending on the style you select. Inset fires are designed to be partially inserted into the fireplace opening. This makes them much easier to install, and they can look more integrated into your living space. Freestanding fires like the Gallery Collection Hopton and Dimplex Danville are ideal for those without a fireplace recess and can be moved from room to room to make it more flexible.
No matter which installation method you choose, always put the fire near an electrical outlet to ensure you can connect the device to test it before installing. You should also ensure that you place the fire away from combustible materials, in accordance with the regulations.

Some models include a handy remote that has multiple options for backlighting and heat settings to suit your mood or the ambience.
