A firebox is an outdoor electric fireplace's core since it is where the fire "burns." Fireboxes differ in technology, features, and size. The standard firebox comes in measurements of 18 x 33 inches. When it comes to technology, we refer to how "real" a fireplace's flame appears. It ranges from basic flat panel images of fire to realistic 3D flames. A high-end firebox includes a flame bed with glow logs, rocks or embers where the "flame" rises from. It helps create the 3D illusion of fire. The movements of flame replicate real patterns of fire burning, which will enhance a user's experience. There are models that include a fireplace tech that releases mist to the firebox in order to make it seem as if the fireplace is releasing smoke.
Major fireplace manufacturers have produced very innovative designs applied to electric fireplaces. An outdoor electric fireplace is a must-have as it keeps your backyard and garden a warm environment even when the weather gives you the chills.
