If you're installing an direct-to-wall model, make sure to check the owner's manual for specifics on how to install it. If you're using a bracket-mounted model fix the bracket to the wall using screws and wall board toggle bolt anchors. Utilize a stud-finder for locating the screw locations.

One of the most common mistakes homeowners make when installing a on the wall fireplace is failing to ensure that the fireplace has been turned off before they go to sleep or leave the home. This is a grave mistake that can lead to fires, electrical malfunctions, and even a fire.
Style
A wall-mounted fireplace is one the most sought-after features that can be incorporated into a wall for media. It's usually placed beneath a flat-screen television, and it's important that the fireplace meets certain requirements for installation. The height from where it is positioned can be a factor, but it is also important to take into consideration the heat that it produces. A model that is designed to be recessed into the wall will usually blow the heat through vents at the front of the unit. However, the fireplace mounted on a surface can blow the heat from either the top or bottom. For a media wall it is common to install a fireplace that is recessed at a height of 40-42 inches above the floor. This allows you to observe it from a sitting position.
While it is possible to find wall-mounted electric fireplaces in a variety of styles, it is generally recommended to match the style of the fireplace with the overall look of the room. This will ensure that the media wall is well-integrated and cohesive. Amantii, Dimplex and other companies offer a wide range of wall-mounted electric fire places. Both brands are renowned for their quality and are quick to react to customer feedback to improve their products.
Another aspect to consider when designing a media wall is whether the wall will be used to house a television or other electronic gadgets. Some people use the recessed fire place as an entertainment center, and others prefer an amalgamation of the wall-mounted fireplace and TV. Choosing a media wall that is able to accommodate both will be simpler and more efficient.
The main drawback to wall-mounted fireplaces is that it tends to feel more permanent than freestanding electric fireplaces that have a mantel. While it is possible to move the fireplace from one location to another, doing so requires reinstalling the mounting brackets. It is also difficult to install a television or other equipment on the wall in the event that the fireplace is in a space that is a stud.
