Dimplex Electric Stoves

by Robert Mac

Dimplex electric stoves use the same design as their electric fireplaces, including their patented electric flame technology. In 1997, Dimplex designed the world's first realistic flame effect; this is another example of innovative product development from the world leader in electric heating. Dimplex electric stoves continue their tradition of design excellence.

Dimplex Electric Stoves Run on Pennies a Day

The first question a lot of people ask is, "How much does it cost to run an electric stove?" Obviously, it depends on a number of factors--including electricity rates in your area--but the ballpark figure is just 2 cents an hour for the realistic electric flame. With the heat on--they don't have to give off heat if you don't want--the amount is about 7 cents an hour. Gas fireplaces, by comparison, run at about 17 cents.

Replacing wood- or gas-burning stoves with an electric model is more than switching to a less expensive heating source. It's a clean energy source, too--good-bye sooty chimneys and potential gas leaks. And because it's as simple as plugging it into the wall, you can move it from room to room--just remember to bend your knees when lifting heavy objects.

Dimplex electric stoves combine that old-school look of traditional free-standing stoves with the advantages of modern technology. Easy to operate. Safe. Reliable. You can even work it with a remote control--try doing that with a wood-burning stove. And with Dimplex's ElectraFlame dancing inside, you'll swear it was the real thing.
