A Blend of Comfort and Convenience 

Gas fireplaces offer instant welcoming warmth, essentially requiring a simple flip of a switch to turn the fire on or off on command. Unlike a traditional wood-burning fireplace, these fireplaces don’t require you to stack or haul wood or deal with smoke, soot, and other byproducts.  

Modern gas fireplaces offer outstanding energy efficiency, many with a battery backup to provide added peace of mind in the event of a power outage. Plus, using a gas fireplace as supplemental heating in the rooms you use most can help reduce heating costs.

The Advantages of Gas Fireplaces

Gas fireplaces offer additional safety that makes them popular among customers with families. With no sparks or flying embers to contend with and optimal control over the flames, gas fireplaces provide the ultimate peace of mind. In addition to comfort and convenience, gas fireplaces also offer the following benefits: 

  • Energy Savings: As a fuel source, gas produces fewer emissions and offers more heating efficiency than wood-burning fireplaces. 
  • Zone Heating: Turn the thermostat down and save money on utilities without sacrificing comfort by heating the rooms you use most often. 
  • Cleaner: No soot or creosote accumulation means minimal maintenance and cleaning is necessary. 
  • Installation Options: You don’t need a chimney. The selection of direct vent fireplaces we offer get vented directly through the ceiling or a side wall.
