Over the centuries there have been many fireplaces built in many homes. It has become a bit tedious to constantly go out and buy wood to burn in the traditional fireplace so many are turning to the gad fireplace. In this type of fireplace there is really no maintenance and it can be turned on and off like and with a light switch. Many new homes have these types of fireplaces with no need for a chimney, it uses a direct vent fireplace model that essentially installs in a dry wall and vents to the outside where any toxic partials are sent out. What do you do if you already have an old school fireplace in your home but want to have a gas artificial wood fireplace? You get an electric fireplace insert.
With electric fireplace inserts you simply install them right in the hold where your wood would normally go. These inserts are designed to fit snug and to look like they were always a part of the fireplace. Instead of a direct vent, it would utilize the current chimney to vent out any particles that you don't want in your air. These units are very efficient and electric or gas. The beauty of the electric inserts are that they are no maintenance, require no wood, and even a child can turn one on as easily as turning on the light.
The electric fireplace inserts work just like your traditional fireplace in the way of heat, they generate a good amount of heat, in many cases more heat than the traditional wood burning would have. Many use these as their homes stand alone heating concept, at least for the front rooms and if the home is small enough it can carry out to the rooms if the doors are open (single story). Many homes with traditional wood fireplaces don't make use of their fireplaces so adding one of these units would put that hole in the wall to good use. The traditional look of the fireplace and the inserts really complement one another and bring a very cool look and feel to the home.
