Check Out Our Selection Of Free Standing Gas Stoves

When shopping for a new heating appliance, there is no shortage of options available! One option that is increasingly popular with homeowners is the free-standing gas stove! While some may think that free-standing stoves have a rustic look or are meant for log cabins, these heating appliances have a number of modern styles that make them perfect for any home.

Benefits of a free-standing stove

There are a number of surprising benefits to installing a free-standing gas stove as your next heating appliance!

– Takes up less space. Traditional fireplaces can be bulky, taking up space above, below, and to the right and left of the actual firebox; in homes where square footage is at a premium, this can make even small fireplaces too big to install. Free-standing stoves, however, take up less floor and wall space when installed – without taking over an entire room.
– Create a minimalist design. Because they do not have a mantle, hearth, or surround, free-standing stoves create a minimalist design. These unique stoves are available in both more traditional or modern styles; this allows you to choose the perfect stove for your home and decorating style.
– Control over heat. Most stoves have temperature controls, allowing homeowners to enjoy their stoves while controlling how much heat they put out. Free-standing stoves can be used as a primary heat source in many homes; likewise, they can also be used to supplement your home’s heating in an effort to reduce heating costs during the cold months of winter.

Why switch to gas?

While some homeowners prefer the look and feel of a real wood burning fire, there are a number of advantages to switching to a gas stove. The following are just a few reasons to consider using gas in your home!

– Heat at the push of a button. Wood fireplaces and stoves require extensive work to start a fire, keep it going, as well as a long cooling off period after the fire ends. Gas heating appliances start and stop burning at the touch of a button, making it possible to switch the stove on and off precisely when you want to use it.
– No more hassle of wood storage. Cutting, stacking, and storing firewood can take a significant amount of time – and space. Gas stoves do not require you to store extra fuel in your home – or venture out to the woodpile in freezing temperatures.
– Efficient, inexpensive heat. Gas heating appliances provide extremely fuel efficient heat; this can benefit both the environment and your wallet! Many homeowners who use a wood stove as a primary heating appliance can save money on heat and fuel costs when switching to gas.
