The fireplace suite is made up of four main components: an inset fire, surround/mantelpiece, hearth and back panel. It is available in electric, gas or solid fuel.

The suit you choose to wear must adhere to industry-specific safety standards like NFPA to ensure adequate protection from hazards identified. For instance proximity suits are designed to protect firefighters from radiant heat as well as melting metal splashes.

Gas

Gas fires are the perfect choice for modern homes, since they can be used to regulate the flame effect as well as the output of heat from the convenient control that is located within the fire. Fireplace Megastore has a wide selection of gas suites from leading manufacturers such as Elgin & Hall, Burley & Gazco and many more with a variety of styles sizes, finishes and styles to fit both traditional and contemporary homes.

If properly fitted to the correct chimney opening a gas firesuite can transform the room. The main components of a fireplace suite are the surround/mantelpiece, hearth and back panel. The surround can be constructed from solid stone or manufactured stone, based on the type of fire you choose. It is designed to complement the fire's size color, shape, and colour.

Aluminized firesuits are designed to breathe and offer excellent protection from extreme temperatures. They are also lighter than proximity suits and are used in workplaces where employees need to be able to move freely. Proximity suits, on other hand, are designed to provide better insulation and are typically used in firefighting contexts and foundries where workers need to be near to extreme heat sources.

Style

Fire suites can create an impressive focal point in any room, offering both practicality and fashion. Designed as an entire package, they include all four elements of a fireplace, including the surround/mantelpiece, hearth and back panel sets and fire, and are guaranteed to operate in harmony to create a luxuriously extravagant centre piece.

Durability is a major consideration when purchasing fire suits. Investing in durability will reduce the cost of long-term maintenance and save money by not having to purchase the same garment until its lifecycle is over typically 5-10 years. It's important to also consider how well a garment can withstand industrial washing. This is a crucial aspect in ensuring safety standards compliance and overall durability.

Aluminized Fire Suits

Aluminized firesuits are constructed to shield against heat radiation, molten metal splashes and other loads that radiate. The outer layer is coated with aluminum. These suits are often used in environments that expose workers to extreme temperatures.

Proximity Fire Suits

These suits are commonly used in certain industries, such as industrial or aerospace kilns. They offer superior insulation over aluminized alternatives. These suits are designed to withstand high temperature by incorporating advanced insulation materials such as a quilted Nomex.
