Like any other household appliance, electric fireplaces can wear out after about 10 to 20 years. With more frequent use, the parts will wear out quicker, and you may get just 7 to 10 years out of a well-loved electric fireplace. Fortunately, electric fireplaces come with a lower upfront installation cost compared to alternatives like gas, so you can install a replacement for less.

It depends on the specifics of your warranty. The motor is likely not covered if you’re working with a limited warranty. The same goes for other components like the compressor and evaporator coil. Some extended warranties will cover the blower and fan motor, so read the fine print before signing up.

No specific appliance brand lasts longer than others, as the lifespan of appliances varies depending on the type of appliance, product line, and more, in addition to the brand name. However, brands like GE®, LG®, Maytag®, Bosch®, Whirlpool®, and Kitchenaid® are known to manufacture high-quality appliances that tend to have longer lifespans. Many of the appliances from these companies can also more easily be repaired, which helps extend useful life before replacement is necessary.

Most hot tubs use between 1,500 watts and 6,000 watts of electricity, depending on the voltage of your heater. 120-volt heaters tip toward the low end, and 240-volt heaters tip toward the high end.
