Fireplaces

Electric fireplaces are for any house or apartment that does not have a wood burning fireplace. They require no chimney or venting; they just need to be plugged in. There are a number of options available, from ones that simply produce heat to those that have a simulated flame, or both. The site also provides links to electric fireplace manufacturers and to a related space heaters website.

Gas fireplaces use natural gas or propane gas to simulate real wood-burning fireplaces. There are gas fireplaces that are room vented and others than are vent free. Those that are vented, however, are the most efficient and produce the most heat. The website provides information about the various options for gas fireplaces. There are also links to fireplace manufacturers.
