Apartment or Condo Living? Electric Fireplaces Are Ideal
If you're living in an apartment or condo, chances are you’ve ruled out owning a fireplace. Well, think again!
No chimney? No gas line? No renovations? No problem.
Real Flame® electric fireplaces mimic the look of a real fire but do not require a chimney or vents and plug into a standard three-prong outlet. Indoor electric fireplaces use LED lights to create the appearance of flames, but there are no real, open flames or emissions so they don't need ventilation or a chimney. They also don't require any connection to gas lines. This makes electric fireplaces ideal for use in spaces where renovation is restricted or unadvised.
Electric Fireplaces Are Apartment-Friendly
Electric fireplaces offer the warmth, ambiance, and charm of a gas or woodburning fireplace without the hassle of construction, messy soot, or commitment to permanent installation.
Key apartment-friendly benefits:
- No chimney or flue required
- No natural gas line or propane hookup needed
- No soot to clean up
- Perfect for rentals where modifications can't be made
Choose the Right Model for Your Space
When shopping for an electric fireplace for a condo or apartment, it’s essential to pick a size and style that fits your square footage and layout.
Best Types For Apartments
- Wall-mounted electric fireplaces save floor space and offer a sleek, modern look
- Freestanding slim electric fireplaces have a compact footprint and come in a variety of styles
- Corner electric fireplaces are great for maximizing small or awkward floor plans
- TV stands with electric fireplaces offer space-saving storage
Real Flame offers compact models designed with apartment living in mind, many under 40" wide and with built-in heaters to warm spaces up to 1,000 sq. ft.

Electric Fireplace Placement is Up to You
Real Flame electric fireplaces plug into a standard outlet so you can position them where you need warmth or ambiance and move them when you like.
- Move your fireplace around just by unplugging it from the wall
- Rearrange your furniture and fireplace for a quick room refresh
- Shift your fireplace to a different room for a no-cost remodel
Be your own interior designer. Experiment with different placements and feel free to move your fireplace around without fear of permanent installation.
No Hauling Wood, No Soot and No Smoke
Electric fireplaces don't require as much elbow grease as gas or woodburning units.
- Wood is not needed, so no splitting or buying wood
- No hauling messy wood indoors
- No soot or ashes to clean up and dispose of
- No smoke, so your home and clothes won't smell
There is no gas to worry about or fires to light, just turn the fireplace on with the remote or touch controls and enjoy your calming, welcoming fireplace.
Use It Year-Round Even Without Heat
One of the biggest perks of owning an electric fireplace? You don’t need to wait for cold weather to enjoy it.
