There are four types of natural gas fireplaces to
consider for your home:
Fireplace Inserts
A convenient and affordable way to convert your existing
wood–burning fireplace to natural gas. Inserts fit into
your existing fireplace and use your home's existing
chimney. There are two types of inserts, one-pipe and
two-pipe systems. The two-pipe system is actually a
direct vent unit. It is useful when there is evidence of
draft problems. The direct vent insert is sealed from
the room in which it is situated and draws all of its
combustion air from outside. Direct vent inserts tend to
be more efficient.
Direct Vent Fireplaces
The ideal solution for homes that do not have an
existing chimney. These are sealed units that draw
outside air in and they don't need a chimney or a flue.
Free Standing Fireplaces
This can be installed almost anywhere in your home,
often with little or no renovation needed. Free standing
fireplaces are an attractive option for homes with or
without a chimney, as they come with many venting
options.
Natural Gas Logs
These sets are an easy way to turn your existing
fireplace into a clean and convenient natural gas
fireplace, one that is easy to use and beautiful. Gas
logs look like a real fire because they are molded from
actual pieces of wood and placed on a glowing coal bed,
made of sand and bits of rock wool and lava rock. With
natural gas logs you have to keep in mind that since the
damper needs to be permanently fixed in the open
position that it is highly recommended that you have
tight-sealing glass doors to prevent unwanted drafts.
To keep your new natural gas fireplace working safely
and efficiently have it serviced every year by your
local, licensed HVAC technician, a service available
from GB HOME COMFORT.
Gas Fireplace Safety & Maintenance Tips
A natural gas fireplace enhances your home's décor and
provides warmth for your family but it is important to
always use caution near the exterior of your fireplace.
The glass window and ceramic surfaces heat up during use
and remain hot for some time after being turned off.
Here are some other guidelines
Remember these safety tips
* Review the manufacturer's instructions for maintenance
and use.
* Never leave children unattended near a gas fireplace.
* Use a screen or protective barrier to ensure young
children cannot touch the glass.
* Do not place flammable materials near the fireplace.
* If the pilot light or flame goes out, follow the
lighting instructions in the manufacturer's
instructions.
* Ensure that your fireplace is turned completely off
when not in use.
* Never wipe the glass of a hot fireplace with a damp
cloth. It could cause the glass to crack.
* Never use a fireplace with cracked glass until it has
been inspected and/or replaced by a qualified HVAC
technician, another service available from GB HOME
COMFORT.
