Not Sure What Kind

Of Fireplace You Want?

This is Where You Need To Start

Deciding what kind of fireplace best fits your needs can be tough. As chimney experts who install all types of fireplaces, we’re here to help.

 

Here are some things to consider as you explore your options:

1. Fuel Type:

When choosing a fireplace, the fuel type is a critical factor to consider. Wood is a renewable and relatively inexpensive resource, especially if you can access free firewood. Gas fireplaces are a cleaner burning fuel, producing fewer pollutants and particulates. Electric fireplaces can be more energy-efficient since they convert almost all their electricity into heat. The cost and availability of these fuel types vary for each individual, and the amount of fuel required depends on the fireplace’s efficiency rating.

 

2. Style and Design:

Fireplaces come in many styles and designs, from traditional to modern. Do you prefer a more classic look with a brick surround or a sleek design with minimalistic features? The crackling sound and the scent of burning wood can create a cozy and authentic ambience. Or, you can light rocks and colored crystals on fire with just the push of a button. 

 

3. Heating Capacity:

When heating a large room, a high-efficiency wood-burning stove or insert can be an excellent option for producing consistent, powerful warmth. If you prioritize a specific style or have a smaller space to heat, gas and electric fireplaces are great alternatives requiring less maintenance while providing comfortable warmth. It’s worth noting that the efficiency rating of a fireplace can vary depending on the type of fuel used, as well as other factors such as the design of the fireplace and how it is installed. Therefore, choosing a fireplace that is properly sized and installed for your specific needs and requirements is important.

 

4. Maintenance:

It’s important to consider the level of care you’re willing to take on. For example, wood-burning fireplaces require regular cleanings to keep them safe and functioning optimally. Gas and electric fireplaces are generally low-maintenance options; however, as with any appliance, there is always a possibility of faults or issues that may require technical specialists.
