Keep Your Fireplace Ambiance, and Increase its Warmth, With a Fireplace Insert!

 

On a chilly Genesee Depot day, nothing “warms” up a space (metaphorically speaking) like a roaring fireplace. The light, sound and movement all blend for a romantic, relaxing atmosphere.

 

Unfortunate truth is, an open-hearth woodburning fireplace barely heats a room. Up to 90 percent of the fire’s heat escapes through the chimney. An open fire actually sucks more heat out of a space than it could ever 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 Transform it with a sleek, highly-efficient fireplace insert in Genesee Depot!

 

Going right into the fireplace opening, a fireplace insert for a woodburning fireplace is a self-contained appliance that directs heat directly into a room, rather than losing most up a chimney. The fire can be seen via a glass panel. The ambiance stays – along with far more warmth!

 

Homeowners can select between gas fireplace inserts and wood fireplace inserts. Both are available from Butler Chimneys, your fireplace and chimney inspection company in Genesee Depot. 

Which fireplace insert is for you?

 

A gas insert is perfect for those who want immediate, low-maintenance fire. The fire literally turns on at the flip of a switch. Available in a broad array of designs, gas fireplace inserts are fast, clean, and little work to operate and maintain.

 

 

A woodburning fireplace insert produces significantly more heat than gas. The work required is much greater, though. A fire has to be physically started, wood added, and air controls adjusted to moderate the blaze. Because it burns so efficiently, a wood fireplace insert uses much less timber than an open-hearth design. For those with unlimited or cheap access to firewood in Genesee Depot, 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 Genesee Depot homeowners proactively install insert-style fireplaces for enhanced heat and cleanliness, often when constructing homes.

 

The alternative situation for adding an insert is when a fireplace inspection reveals cracked or missing flue tiles. Installing a brand-new insert will get around many issues, and is often less costly than making repairs. The decision might not be difficult.

 

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

 

Smoke is expelled through a new stainless steel liner added 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 typically installs fireplace inserts – gas or wood – in homes in Genesee Depot 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 costly chimney repairs that would otherwise be needed to ensure safe venting of fireplace gases.

 

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