Keep Your Fireplace Ambiance, and Heighten the Heat, With a Fireplace Insert!

 

On a cold Belgium day, nothing “warms” up a room (metaphorically speaking) like a blazing fireplace. The light, sound and movement all mix for a romantic, relaxing atmosphere.

 

Unfortunate fact is, an open-hearth woodburning fireplace hardly warms a space. Up to 90 percent of the fire’s heat is lost through the chimney. An open fire actually draws more heat out of a space than it could possibly return. Homeowners endure a fire risk from airborne sparks landing on combustible surfaces, as well.

 

Want to make your fireplace experience safer, far warmer and more pleasurable)? {Upgrade with a sleek, highly-efficient fireplace insert in Belgium!

 

Inserted right into the fireplace opening, a fireplace insert for a woodburning fireplace is a self-contained unit that directs heat directly into a room, rather than sending most up a chimney. The fire is visible through a glass panel. The ambiance remains – along with far more warmth!

 

Homeowners can select between gas fireplace inserts and wood fireplace inserts. Both are offered by Butler Chimneys, your fireplace and chimney inspection company in Belgium. 

Which fireplace insert is for you?

 

A gas insert is ideal for those who want instant, low-maintenance fire. The fire literally turns on at the flip of a switch. Available in a wide selection of designs, gas fireplace inserts are fast, clean, and little effort to operate and maintain.

 

 

A woodburning fireplace insert creates significantly more heat than gas. The work involved is much greater, though. A fire has to be physically lit, wood added, and air controls adjusted to control the blaze. Because it burns so completely, a wood fireplace insert uses much less timber than an open-hearth setup. For those with unlimited or cheap access to firewood in Belgium, a wood burning insert can be noticeably) more cost-effective, and a nice {supplemental heating source for a home.

 

The decision between gas or woodburning is completely user preference. Many Belgium homeowners proactively install insert-style fireplaces for enhanced heat and cleanliness, often when designing homes.

 

The alternative situation for adding an insert is when a fireplace inspection discovers cracked or missing flue tiles. Installing a brand-new insert will bypass many issues, and is often less expensive than making repairs. The decision might not be too hard.

 

Fireplace inserts are made of heavy-gauge sheet steel. The doors are cast iron, which allows highly-effective heat conduction. Fire is completely enclosed within, seen through ceramic glass, and can be left unattended.

 

Smoke is exhausted via a new stainless steel liner installed inside the chimney. Wood fireplace inserts use a single 6-inch liner; gas, two 3-inch liners, one for delivering air to the firebox, and another for expelling gases.

 

Butler Chimneys regularly installs fireplace inserts – gas or wood – in homes in Belgium in one day. If the former is added, a new fuel line is run from a gas source elsewhere in the house.

 

New stainless steel chimney liners carry lifetime warranties. Their installation can sometimes allow homeowners to avoid pricey chimney repairs that would otherwise be needed to ensure safe venting of fireplace gases.

 

Another benefit of fireplace inserts? If power goes out, they remain a steady, reliable heat source. In severe weather, they can literally be a lifesaver.
