Choosing a gas fireplace involves more than just the design. There are several aspects to consider that determine how the fireplace fits into your interior and meets your needs. The appearance of the fireplace plays an important role here, with various options to choose from.

You are also faced with the choice between a built-in or freestanding fireplace, each with their own advantages. The burner bed also offers options to further personalise the atmosphere. In this blog, we discuss the main considerations you need to take into account when buying a gas fireplace.

The view of the gas fire

The view of a gas fireplace determines the ambience of the room, and there are several options to choose from. A front fireplace offers a classic, direct view of the flames, while a corner fireplace shows the heat from two sides. A panoramic fireplace offers a wide view of the fire, perfect for large rooms.

Tunnel and room divider fires

Finally, there are tunnel and room divider fireplaces, which create a unique see-through effect, ideal for stylishly connecting two rooms. All these views can be created by varying the use of glass panels in the fireplace.

Freestanding or built-in gas fireplace?

When you buy a gas fireplace, you have the choice of a built-in or a freestanding appliance. With built-in fireplaces, there are models with different views, as discussed earlier. The dimensions of these fireplaces range from 64 centimetres to 100 centimetres in length.

Freestanding gas fires

Besides built-in fireplaces, Trimline Fires also has freestanding stoves. For instance, Trimline offers the Gemstone series, which consists of beautiful freestanding gas fires in various sizes, from the practical, compact Trimline Zircon to the spacious Trimline Obsidian.

The burner bed of the gas fire

In a gas fire, the flames rise from the burner bed. With Trimline Fires, there are different coverings for the bed to suit your taste. So you can create a strong, realistic fire with logs. Do you prefer a covering of stone? Then you can choose from Pebbles, Basalt split or Carrara stones.
