Cleaning it up isn't just about presentation and standards, it also helps to minimise the chance of fire-related incidents which could put your home at risk (source: The Spruce).<br /><br />When it comes to cleaning, first of all you should switch off the power source to your stove, either by unplugging it or turning it off in the fuse box of your home. Then, you should allow the stove to cool completely before beginning cleaning it. Once the appliance has cool down completely, you can begin to clean the grate, heat outlets, inlets, and glass. A dry cloth should usually suffice. If you have a fan heater, you'll also have to clean the fan that is done with a dry cloth or a vacuum cleaner fitted with a special nozzle attachment (if you have one). It is also important to clean any flame effect parts. They are typically a halogen or LED strip as well as mirrors connected to rods. They can also be cleaned with dry cloths or vacuum.<br /><br />In relation to the coils, it's important to remember that you shouldn't be able to get them wet. They plug into a certain type of socket, and submerging them in water could damage the appliance. If they become dirty, you can apply a mixture of hot dish soap and water, or, if required you need to use a degreaser, such as denatured alcohol. The coils must be cleaned and any drip pans removed should be returned.<br /><br />As long as you follow these easy steps, your electric fireplace will continue to function as it should.
