The vast majority of fireplaces that we install are gas. There’s lots of great reasons; namely they require little maintenance and they’re affordable to purchase and operate. Gas fireplaces can be installed virtually anywhere with both vented and ventless options, or retrofitted into wood-burning fireplaces to take advantage of existing chimneys. Gas fireplaces are also environmentally friendly, something to consider on poor air quality days or in areas that restrict wood-burning.
