So I want to go and buy an electric fireplace for my house but I don't want my electric bill to sky rocket, I mean I would expect it to go up a little, so does anyone know?

Won't do a thing to the electric bill... unless you turn it on.

Those FP's typically have a dual 750/1500 watt heater. So if you run it at 1500 Watts that's 1.5KW/hour. What is your KW cost where you live? Usually 6-10cents per KW, multiply by 1.5=>90c-$1.50 per hour.

Ok ma well thank you I just went onto my electric companies website and figured it all out.

At 1$ per hour and 5 hours per day=$150 per month. You can "tip" me by clicking "YES-Is this helpful" on my answer. Thanks, Brian

Yes, it will but you can save if you choose the right fireplace for you. Buy those that are capable of true zone heating. I found this electric fireplace (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1DSnA13tkGk&feature=plcp&context=C3fc74e6UDOEgsToPDskIAeFByr70N4uzibJTUFFp9 ) here in demo to give you some idea about it. These guys are talking about heating just the room you're at so you can save on your electric bills. It's true, plus you don't spend much on maintenance.
