Look Into A New Fireplace Or Insert This Holiday Season

The holidays are a season for family and friends to gather together and celebrate. For many families, this includes spending time in front of a roaring fire. This year, make sure your home is holiday ready by looking into installing a new fireplace or insert!

Whether your current fireplace is out of date, has a fuel source you don’t like, or needs repairs that prevent you from using it, installing a new fireplace insert can help you enjoy your fireplace system again. With a wide variety of sizes and styles available at Clean Sweeps of Michigan, our staff can help you find the perfect insert for your home.

All About Inserts

Fireplace inserts are not a one size fits all fireplace! Modern inserts come in a variety of sizes and styles to meet both the heating needs of your home while still fitting in with your home’s décor. Likewise, inserts burning different fuel sources are available; whether you prefer pellets, gas, or traditional wood, it is possible to find an insert for your home. Inserts are able to burn safely and efficiently by using closed system combustion. Doing this minimizes fuel waste while maximizing heat production, making them one of most efficient fireplace options available.

Inserts can be installed as new fireplaces as well as in the place of an existing masonry fireplace or insert. According to the Hearth, Patio, and Barbecue Association, installing an insert in the place of an existing open hearth masonry fireplace can help reduce energy bills – sometimes by as much as 40%.

Benefits of a New Fireplace Insert

A new fireplace insert is a cost-efficient way to upgrade your home and get the most out of your fireplace system. The following are three benefits of installing a new fireplace insert.

  1. Environmentally friendly. New fireplace inserts following the strict emissions requirements set by the EPA. This minimizes the smoke, particulate emissions, and other air pollution created by fireplaces. Minimal air pollution can make fireplace inserts a good option for families with members who have allergies, asthma, or other respiratory issues.
  2. Energy efficient. Fireplace inserts are extremely efficient due to their closed system combustion. This minimizes fuel waste while maximizing heat production; less heat is lost up the chimney and more is projected into the room. Inserts may in some cases even be more efficient than gas fireplaces.
  3. Variety of choices. Fireplace inserts are available in a variety of sizes, styles, and with various fuel sources. This means that families can find the perfect insert for their specific heating needs. Likewise, there are a number of different styles available ranging from sleek and contemporary to rustic and traditional.

This holiday season, get ready to make memories around the fireplace with a new insert for your home. For more information on fireplace inserts and how to get a new insert installed in your home before the holidays arrive, contact Clean Sweeps of Michigan today!
