My wife and I always enjoyed watching television shows and movies in the living room near the fireplace.
We had a wood burning fireplace and it was something we enjoyed immensely.
It always provided the right amount of heating to keep us nice and toasty, and it was disappointing when we couldn’t use it in the summer months. Then eventually, my wife purchased me an electric fireplace for my birthday. This electric fireplace was really nice with a remote to adjust the temperature control settings. The other cool thing was the fact that you could have the flames working without having the heating function turned on! Suddenly, we were able to enjoy all our movies and television shows in our room next to the electric fireplace. It actually is amazing at how well the electric fireplace provides heating to the room. I love turning that thing on every single evening when I am finished with my work for the day. I am actually thinking about getting a portable electric fireplace in my office. Unfortunately, the HVAC system doesn’t even provide heating and cooling to my office, so I have been using a portable heater. I think I would feel so much better with a portable electric fireplace though because of the ambience it brings. I think it would help me be more productive with my work too while I’m taking care of my duties in the office. Eventually I’m going to have the uneven heating and cooling fixed though, but in the meantime, I’m really enjoying that new electric fireplace with my wife.
