How to Combine panoramic media wall fire and an Electric Fire
Media walls are the newest trend in interior design for homes. They are custom-designed stud wall frameworks that house built-in storage, such as shelves, cabinets or drawers, and may include appliances such as an electric fireplace.
You can add a unique dimension to your media wall by installing the Gazco eStudio 105R media wall electric fire. This gorgeous fire is recessed into the wall to give it a sleek, rounded appearance. It has striking flame effects, with or without heating.
TV Size
A media wall is an elegant method of integrating the flat-screen TV, electric fireplace and bespoke storage into a living room decor. It's common for these stud wall installations to incorporate shelves, cupboards, and drawers along with the TV, resulting in a fully customized entertainment center. For many, the centerpiece of the media wall is an elegant electric fire. Selecting the ideal size TV for this specific installation requires careful evaluation. You want the screen to be sufficient to provide enough depth but not so large that it obliterates or dwarfs the fire.
Begin by measuring the wall space where you plan to put your fireplace and TV. Draw it in scale, taking into account any windows, doors or furniture that is built-in. This will give you the highest width and height parameters within which you can create your media wall.
It is also essential to consider the way you intend to use your television and electric fire as a pair. Film enthusiasts may want a large screen for a cinematic experience, while those who use the TV for entertainment purposes will usually be able to do with a smaller model.
If you plan to upgrade your TV in the near future, selecting one that is on the lower end of the market will keep your wall of media current as technology improves. This strategy can save you the hassle of having to redesign your bespoke installation if you choose to upgrade your TV.

When choosing an electric fireplace to be used as a wall for your media, there are a few things to take into consideration. One of the most important factors is the size of the fireplace. The fireplace must be big enough to accommodate a TV which will be placed just above the fire.
It is recommended to choose an electric fireplace that is the same width as your TV.

Certain models also keep a pre-set temperature for the room.
