These fireplaces have mounting brackets that permit you to put the fireplace directly on the wall just like a flat-screen or picture TV and are able to install it yourself, although you may need help from a second pair of hands if your model is larger than the norm. They are also great for those who rent their home and can be easily removed when it's time to move. They don't even leave a hole in the wall.
