We have an electric fireplace stove and we bought it in black because it works well with the modern look that we’re going for with our home, and also because it fits in with the black surround and mantel of the open fireplace in our living room.

We also have an open fireplace in our kitchen and we’re looking paint the surround white.

If we wanted to also change the color of our electric fireplace to match the color of the fireplace surround would we be able to paint our electric fireplace?

It would be difficult to paint an electric fireplace unit.

This is because electric fireplaces work differently to other types of fireplace and aren’t designed to be painted.

Depending on the type and model of electric fireplace it may be constructed out of metal and or/plastic. Our electric fireplace stove has a metal body with plastic parts throughout such as for the legs and control covers.
