Electric fireplace logs will typically always come with flame effects such as logs that light up to look more realistic and/or a projection of flickering flames.

While some models, like ours, only have logs that light up, other models can project the look of flames onto the wall behind the unit.

Depending on the model, an integrated heater is also common.

It can also be possible to buy electric fireplace logs that have:

• Smoke effects
• Sounds effects
• Remote control

Smoke effects can be found on some of the higher end models of electric logs and can often be found being created using water vapour technology.

Sound effects may be integrated into some models of electric fireplace logs but may also be found as an optional extra for others.

If an electric fireplace log set comes with a remote control then it will allow you to control it from the comfort of your seat.

As an example, our electric fireplace logs:

• Has a simple flame effect using a bulb below the logs
• Has an infrared heater for putting out heat
• Doesn’t have any smoke effects
• Doesn’t have any sounds effects
• Didn’t come with a remote control.
