What’s the Best Fireplace for Your Home?
We install many gas and electric fireplaces in Lake Forest, IL. What type is best for your home? Let’s look at a few features and benefits.
Gas Fireplace Specs
Vented and vent-free gas fireplaces continue to grow in popularity across Chicagoland. Here are a few of the reasons.
1. A lot of heat
A manufactured gas fireplace will retain 70% or more of the heat it produces and send it into your room. Compare that with the 10% to 20% retained by a traditional wood-burning masonry fireplace.
2. Environmentally responsible
All gas fireplaces on the market today are EPA-approved for clean burns and reduced emissions.
3. Easy to operate
Running on natural gas or propane, gas fireplaces are easy to operate with a switch or remote to control:
- On and off
- Flame height
- Heat level
4. Versatile sizes
With a range of sizes and BTU outputs, modern gas fireplaces are perfect choices for both large and small rooms throughout your home.
Electric Fireplace Specs
If you crave beauty, simplicity, and quick, comforting heat, a new electric fireplace is the right choice.
1. Attractive firebox visuals
It may be electric, but you’ll marvel at the lovely firebox visuals that mimic genuine flames, actual fire glow, and authentic wood logs burning on a cozy evening.
2. Low maintenance
Caring for an electric fireplace amounts to occasionally vacuuming the firebox and wiping down the surfaces. That’s it.
3. No drafting apparatus
Electric fireplaces heat without a vent pipe or chimney. There’s nothing to install or build.
4. Simple to use
As with gas fireplaces, a switch or remote gives you total control of your electric fireplace experience.
Can I Convert My Wood Fireplace to Gas?
You can upgrade a wood masonry fireplace and some wood-burning manufactured fireplaces by installing a gas fireplace insert. As long as there’s a safe and accessible way to run the gas line and handle drafting, you can leave wood behind and start enjoying a gorgeous gas fireplace.
