What is a gas fireplace insert? Gas fireplace inserts are a new, innovated version of the old wood burning fireplaces we know. While an old wood fireplace is very difficult to maintain, and the costs of central heating are forcing you to break the bank, a gas fireplace insert is a great alternative.

Basically, a gas fireplace insert is an appliance that you add to an open masonry fireplace with the goal of maintaining a proper, warm and cozy temperature in your house. But apart from making sure you won’t be cold anymore, this type of fireplace is also good at improving the air quality in the house and stopping cold chimney draft.

The cool thing regarding gas fireplace inserts is that they can be added to an old, existing wooden fireplace. They use just the same space as the old appliance, so if you have an older wood burning fireplace, it will be easier for you to install a gas fireplace insert. The difference is that the new fireplace will be more efficient in creating and distributing heat in your house and will use gas as fuel. Therefore, it is better as you won’t have to cut wood anymore.

Also, there’s less maintenance to deal with, and lower costs involved with such a unit. Not to mention that gas fireplace inserts don’t have such a high risk of causing a fire compared to their wood counterparts.
