Does the heating element always have to be on?

No, it does not. This is one of the appeals of an electric fireplace. If you want a bit of heat, turn the heat on. If you want just the effects afforded by an electric fireplace, without any heat, just leave the heat off. This will allow you to enjoy that special feeling and atmosphere created by your electric fireplace year-round, not just during the heating season.

Joseph G. Bodden is a Wisconsin native and is semi-retired after 40+ years in marketing, sales and technical customer service work. Over 23 of those years have been in the fireplace industry, as the Hearth Division Manager in an organization that operates two retail shops. During that time, Bodden was certified by the National Fireplace Institute in wood & gas technologies. He was also selected several times by Hearth & Home magazine as a judge for the annual VESTA awards that recognize manufacturers creativity and innovation in product design and technology. One thing that Joe particularly finds fulfilling is explaining fairly complex subjects to fireplace customers and steering them to specific products that will satisfy their objectives. There’s nothing like unsolicited positive feedback from a happy customer! He enjoys the outdoors, playing guitar and spending time with their five grandchildren. Bodden continues to live in north central Wisconsin with his bride of 45 years.
