Fireplace Inserts - A fireplace insert is a self-contained heating unit. It is designed to be installed into a preexisting masonry fireplace. It is often made of steel or cast iron and fits directly into the firebox. The insert is meant to burn wood, pellets, or gas and is more efficient than a traditional open-hearth fireplace. The nice part of the insert is that it is completely self-contained and does not need an additional chimney to exist. The insert has a pipe that runs up the existing chimney.
- Wood Burning- You can opt for a wood-burning fireplace insert. While enjoying the smells, crackle, and ambience of a wood-burning fire, you will enjoy more efficient warmth.
- Gas Insert - There are many benefits of a gas insert. The convenience of turning a switch and having a fire is desirable to many.
- Pellet Stove Insert - Pellets are “real wood,” so you get the crackle and smell without the added tasks of a wood burner.
- Electric Insert- If you want an economical way to go, an electric insert may be for you. Many have blowers that heat the area.
