What Is a Fireplace Insert?
In many ways, gas and wood fireplace inserts look and operate like traditional fireplaces. There are a few differences, however. Inserts are completely built in a factory – no construction takes place in your home. Inserts are installed in the fireboxes of existing masonry fireplaces. Inserts have their own vent pipe that runs up through but doesn’t engage the chimney. Inserts, depending on the model, produce four or five times more heat than open masonry fireplaces.
Gas Fireplace Inserts
If your current fireplace isn’t producing the amount of heat you want, switching to a new gas insert will solve the problem.
With heat-efficiency ratings of 70% and higher, you’ll enjoy far more of the heat your appliance produces than you ever could with an open-style fireplace.
Gas Insert Advantages
Consider theses benefits of gas fireplace inserts for an efficient and stylish home heating solution:
- A switch or remote gets fires started quickly and extinguished just as fast
- Minimal maintenance and no heavy cleaning required
- A range of lovely styles, designs and finishes from top makers such as Enviro, Pacific Energy and SimpliFire
- No major construction required to install or vent a gas insert
Wood Insert Advantages
The benefits of wood fireplace inserts include:
- Powerful enough to heat rooms up to 3,000 square feet
- The unmatched ambience of a real wood fire with crackling logs and leaping flames
- Easily compliment your home’s décor with insert designs that range from traditional to contemporary
- Wood inserts include their own vent pipes that are ultra-safe and efficient
