My builder uses Houzz Pro to plan the timeline and give detailed estimates and daily updates with photos of progress, and provide invoices at pre-agreed key points in the build. This made the whole experience much more efficient and stress-free.

What size electric fireplace should I install in-wall?

5 years ago
last modified: 5 years ago

Entire wall is just over 22 feet, but I am installing electric fireplace in-wall within the 14 feet of the wall with higher ceilings. I wasn't sure if I should go 60 inches, or 72 inches. I'm thinking 96 inches would be too big. No TV will go on this wall, plan to hang pictures above. I taped out 60, 72, and 96 inches in the picture and the middle tape is the center of the 14 feet wall, so will be installed centered. Thanks for the help. No furniture will be placed in front of that wall either.
