Inset vs wall-hung
Wall-mounted and inset wall-mounted electric fireplaces are the two main styles. Inset models like the Vision Futura 1500 and the Evonic Halo 1500 XT are recessed into a wall with a flush-finish that blends seamlessly with walls surrounding it. Inset electric fireplaces are more expensive and require an existing opening.
The most effective electric media wall fires like the Elgin and Hall Pryzm Arteon 3, are wall-hung. They are easy to install and don't require an existing opening in the wall since they don't have to be recessed into the wall. They can be more versatile than inset electric fires, with some models featuring various trims and finishes to suit your decor. Wall-mounted models still stand out from the wall and not suit all room designs. They also can hinder air circulation in smaller rooms since they are likely to disperse heat upwards instead of across the room.

An inset fire is designed to be partially inserted into the opening of a fireplace making it simpler to install and can look more unified in your living spaces. Freestanding fires, like the Gallery Collection Hopton or Dimplex Danville are ideal for those who do not have an opening in the fireplace. They can also be moved from room to room to allow for greater flexibility.
Whatever method of installation you decide to use, ensure that the fire is located close to a power socket to allow you to connect it and test the functions prior to fitting. You'll also want to locate the fire away from combustible substances, as per the regulations.
