View full detailsA masonry-style electric fireplace is built to read as a restored wood-burning opening, not an obvious retrofit. Instead of a flush, minimalist wall unit, these models use brick, stone, or hearth-style framing cues, along with proportions sized to slide into or replicate an existing masonry cavity.
Several of our brands build specifically for this look: Dimplex's Revillusion series restores real masonry openings with interchangeable brick and concrete-look panels, while insert-style options from SimpliFire, Modern Flames, and Amantii update an existing hearth without new construction. If your space needs new framing instead of a like-for-like swap, our Built-in Electric Fireplaces are designed for that. For a sleeker, flush-mount look instead of a hearth-style opening, see our Linear Electric Fireplaces.
What varies model to model is install type — insert vs. built-in vs. free-standing — along with width, heat output, and finish options. All are electric, so none require venting or a gas line regardless of how traditional the exterior looks.
Key Advantages of Masonry-Style Electric Fireplaces
- Restores Existing Openings: Insert and firebox models are sized to fit into a fireplace cavity you already have, without demolition.
- Authentic Finish Options: Brick, stone, and hearth-style framing are designed to read as classic masonry rather than an obvious electric retrofit.
- Real Supplemental Heat: Most models carry a heater rated for a specific room size, not just a flame effect.

Frequently Asked Questions
Will this fit my existing masonry fireplace opening?
Measure the width, height, and depth of your opening before ordering. Insert-style models are sized to slide into standard masonry cavities, but exact clearances vary by brand and model, so check the product page's dimension spec against your opening.
Do I need to remove my damper or chimney first?
No demolition is required for the fireplace itself, since none of these need venting. Whether you address the damper or chimney separately is a matter of preference, not a requirement for the unit to work.
Is this just decorative, or does it actually heat the room?
Most models here include a real heater, not just a flame effect. Room ratings vary by model, from around 400 sq. ft. on smaller inserts up to 1,000 sq. ft. on larger fireboxes. You can also run the flame with the heater off.
What's the difference between an insert and a free-standing model?
An insert slides into an existing fireplace opening and uses the surrounding structure. A free-standing model needs no opening at all — it sits on the floor like a stove and just needs a nearby outlet.
Do I need a professional to install one?
Most models here are plug-in units that don't require an electrician for a standard 120V outlet install. If your space needs a dedicated circuit or any electrical modification, that portion should go through a licensed electrician.
