Buying Electric Fireplaces

Are Gel Fueled Fireplaces A Good Heat Source??

Im curious if a gel fueled fireplace would be a good backup heat source to heat 1000 sq ft if my electric heat goes out this winter. does anyone own one of these fireplaces?? how many sq ft would it heat or are they just for looks?? thanks!!

    You didn’t indicate if you lived in an apartment or a house. I am not fond of gel fireplaces. Constantly buying gel. If you have a house, (mine is 1,700) Lowes sells fireplace surrounds with ceramic logs. The source of fuel is propane. I have such a fireplace and I love it. It has a blower motor and blows heat into the room and can be preset. Not only do I enjoy the aesthetics but it is economical as well.
