Recommended Electric Fireplaces for Kenya and East Africa Region

Are you in the market for an electric fireplace? We will be looking at the recommended electric fireplaces for Kenya and East Africa region in this post. Since we don’t live in extreme cold weather conditions and don’t experience winter like countries in the northern hemisphere, there’s no need to install an expensive heating system in your house. An electric fireplace is sufficient but before ordering one or visiting a shop that sells them, you need to know what to look out for when buying an electric fireplace. Let us look at some of the considerations to make below.

What to look out for when buying an electric fireplace in Kenya

Controls and Settings. When buying an electric fireplace, consider the controls and settings it has to see if they are functioning well. It’s always good to ask the seller or representative selling you to test them to see if they are working well. This is also a good time to learn how to operate the appliance.

Ease-of-Use Features. While testing the controls and settings, determine how easy to use they are. This helps you know if your old folks who didn’t go to school or are well advanced in age can operate it on their own especially if you are buying it for them.

Power consumption & energy efficiency. Another important consideration to make when buying an electric fireplace is its power consumption and energy efficiency. Considering the cost of electricity in Kenya compared to income levels of our citizens, the electric fireplace must be able to efficiently utilize power and consume the least amount of it.

Portability/Size. This is also a major consideration to make. This should be determined by the available space in your house especially if there is no dedicated fireplace in the house. Since we have different sizes of electric fireplaces, you can choose one that is convenient with you.

Another important thing we would like you to know is that we also custom make sizes. However it takes approximately 60 days to deliver because it has to be custom made by our manufacturer to your exact dimensions and shipped into the country.

Safety features. An electric fireplace must have the necessary safety features like overheat protection, circuit breaker, good insulation, high quality body etc. these prevent it from causing injury or leading to electric shock.

Build quality. The build quality should be highest to ensure it lasts and also able to adequately protect the internal components from damage when undergoing normal use or during transport. That is why we recommend you build a cabinet for it.

Cost Range. Finally check the price range to know what different vendors sell at. But please note that it’s easy to be fooled due to an affordable price without knowing some of the cheap ones you might come across are of poor quality. You might end up wasting money on an electric fireplace that breaks down in less than a year.
