Wood Fireplace Insert: Efficient Way to Spruce Up Your Hearth

7 December 2023      

Every year it is just normal to upgrade any old, cold and drafty fireplace and convert it into a stunning energy-efficient heating solution. Whether you want to update the look of your tired, old fireplace or just want a more efficient heating solution, a gas fireplace insert is the perfect solution.

A fireplace insert offers more efficient heating than a traditional wood-burning fireplace with less smoke. The pollution going out the chimney and the residual heat in a traditional wood fireplace is expelled outside. The good thing about fireplace insert is that it is an enclosed combustion system which means you will not feel drafts from the chimney when the fireplace is not in use. And you will not lose heated or cool air from your home out of the chimney. Further, with fireplace inserts since they are self-contained stoves, they are much easier to clean and maintain. Further, it is more energy efficient especially if your cold and drafty fireplace is increasing the cost to heat your home by making other heating sources work harder and longer to keep your home warm in the winter. A thermostat allows you to control the heat and maintain a comfortable room temperature. Moreso, when it comes to installing fireplace inserts size matters. To determine which insert is best for your fireplace, it is recommended to contact us to consult with a certified chimney sweep today.

The good point is you will easily convert your traditional fireplace into a more energy efficient and environmentally friendly wood-burning fireplace or choose the convenience of gas or pellet fireplace inserts that are as easy to use as flipping a switch. Think of it as a fireplace within a fireplace.
