The Direct Vent Gas Fireplace Insert

A direct vent gas fireplace insert is designed to fit into your existing conventional wood burning fireplace.

A common question from first time lookers is, "Can I burn wood in my insert?" The short answer is no. Once you install your new fireplace natural gas or propane insert, you are committed. 

Direct vent gas fireplace inserts are basically a fire box surrounded by a steel shell. Ambient temperature air flows around the firebox and back into the room, usually aided by means of a fan. The key to making your direct vent gas fireplace insert a pleasing addition is the "faceplate." The faceplate is the part of the construction that is in front and covers the old opening. You can choose just the right front faceplate that fits best with the decor of your room!
