Also, you must ensure that the walls are sturdy enough to support a recessed fireplace. This requires an expert to take a sample of the wall and look for structural problems.
Another benefit of wall-mounted fireplaces is that it is usually less expensive to operate than a standard gas fireplace.

A wall-mounted fireplace is a great option for those who do not wish to deal with the hassle or cost of installing a gas stove. They're also convenient because they don't require the installation of a chimney or a flue. However, they do carry certain safety risks if they're not used in a safe manner. The risks can be minimized by following a few easy guidelines.
When buying a wall mounted electric fireplace, it's important to think about the size of your space. This will enable you to determine the maximum depth of the model you choose. A model that fits into a standard electrical outlet is usually the best option. This will prevent the device from overloading your circuits and leading to a power failure. Be sure to keep the fire out of combustible items such as furniture, curtains and bedding.

Be aware of how the power cord is hidden. It's important to keep it clear of the flames of combustible materials, and in areas that don't receive much foot traffic. This can be accomplished by investing in attractive cable covers, or tucking it behind furniture or objects.

Be sure to carefully go through the directions provided by the manufacturer if you're considering a wall-mounted gas fire. Certain models can be surface mounted and attached to the wall with drywall anchors, while others require cutting the wall and constructing an frame with a recessed design. Installing a fireplace that is wall-mounted is a matter of following the directions of the manufacturer and use proper tools. It's important not to let your pets or children unattended around the fireplace.
Installation
A fireplace that is mounted on the wall is a great option to create a cozy ambience without occupying floor space. They are easy to install and look stunning in any room. However, it's important to follow the manufacturer's instructions carefully prior to beginning the installation. You should also have a second person to assist you when installing the fireplace.

If you are planning to install a wall-mounted fire take out all combustible materials from the area. This includes pillows, curtains, and other furniture. As a rule keep curtains and other furniture at least 1.5 feet away from the fireplace's edges. This will ensure the safety of the flames and prevent the walls from being burned or curtains.
It's also important to choose the best location for your fireplace. It should be near an electrical outlet, but not directly beneath anything that could be damaged. Mounting a fireplace under televisions can cause damage to the TV. You should also test the fireplace prior to installing it. Play around with the heat and light settings to make sure they function.
Electric fires can be positioned on solid walls, which is not the case with gas fires. They're also cheaper to buy and install, and don't need regular maintenance like gas fires do. They're also less likely than gas fires to cause carbon dioxide leaks.
It's best to hire professionals to put your fireplace in an recessed wall. Installing a recessed fireplace can be more complicated than installing one on a flat wall, because you have to frame the opening, and run a line for gas. It's also more costly and can cause damage.
It is also harder to move a fireplace with a recess later on, since you'll need to drill holes in the walls. This can be very frustrating particularly if you've already invested a lot into the room.
