New designs in wood burning fireplace inserts are heating up the market-
place. Created to enhance, rather than compete with the surrounds en-
closing them, . . . . .
. . . they have shed the masses of metal that previously defined them to become "lean, mean, heating machines!" Now, instead of hiding the fire and overpowering the mantels framing them, they have opened up to expose the dancing flames and to complement their surrounds!
If your existing mantel or surround has seen better days and you've de-
cided to
cover it up, many of the new inserts work very well by them-
selves, aesthetically . . .
with simple but elegant frames and convex glass fronts for enhanced views of the
fire.
Available in a variety of traditional and contemporary styles, the new de-
signs
have been created with much more thought and attention given to how they will look
in their "surround"-ings. Unlike their predecessors, many of the new wood burning
fireplace inserts blend seamlessly into an existing fireplace surround.
Even some of the weightier traditionally
styled models are highly detailed and
de-
signed to enhance the overall look and
feel of the
mantel and surround . . .
while many of the contemporary inserts are nearly as sleek and chic as their stand-alone counterparts.
Some models are designed with versatility in mind. They can be installed in either an existing masonry unit, or in a new zero clearance firebox.
Whichever option you choose, your new insert will dramatically improve the energy efficiency of your fireplace and, as a result, will stop your hard earned $$$ from going up the chimney and through the roof!
