Inset vs wall-hung
Inset and wall-mounted media wall electric fireplaces are two of the most popular styles. Inset models, such as the Vision Futura 1500 or the Evonic Halo 1500 XT, are recessed into the wall. They offer a flush finish, seamlessly blends into the walls surrounding it to create a neat appearance. However, inset electric fires require an opening that is already in place and can be more expensive than their free-standing counterparts.
The most effective media wall electric fires are wall-hung, such as the Elgin and Hall Pryzm Arteon 3SL. Because they aren't set into the wall, they don't require an opening that already exists and are relatively cheap to put up. There are models that come with a variety of trims and finishes that can be customised to your decor. Wall-mounted models still stand out from the wall and not suit all room designs. They can also hinder the flow of air in smaller spaces, as they'll likely radiate heat upwards instead of across the space.

A media wall is a space specifically designed for your entertainment setup. It could be a TV, sound system or other equipment that you regularly use. This kind of space is a contemporary response to the entertainment centers of the past. It can provide a sleek, well-organized look while also freeing up floor space in the room.
Most modern electric fireplaces for media walls are fixed to the wall and are either freestanding or inset depending on the design you choose. Inset fires are designed to be partially inserted into a fireplace opening, which makes it easier to install and look more integrated in your living spaces. Freestanding fires such as the Gallery Collection Hopton and Dimplex Danville are great for those who do not have a fireplace recess and can be moved from room to room to make it more flexible.
Whatever method of installation you choose, make sure the fire is situated near a power outlet so that you can connect it to the power source and test its functions prior to fitting. According to the regulations, you'll want to keep the fire away from combustible materials.
