Gas Fireplaces

Nothing says “it’s great to be home” as an evening of rest and relaxation by the fireside. Gas fireplaces make this age-old tradition simple, safe, and convenient.

The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) notes that gas fireplaces burn cleaner than wood fireplaces, releasing less soot and other pollutants.. They’re also easy to operate—you can enjoy a cozy fire at the touch of a button. Additionally, the design possibilities are endless.

Our heating, ventilation, and air conditioning (HVAC) experts at Air Flo can install, repair, and service your gas fireplace in Washington. Located in Sequim, we’re here for all your heating, cooling, and indoor air quality (IAQ) needs.

Design Options

Here are a few factors to consider when purchasing your next gas fireplace:

Inserts are log-and-burner sets inserted into your fireplace. The sets are self-contained inside two metal boxes. The metal warms air caught between the boxes, radiating warmth and coziness into your living space.

Inserts draw gas from an outlet in your fireplace, which will need to be drilled by a professional if you don’t already have one. Vented models use a glass panel in your fireplace, while non-vented models have the additional option of a metal screen.

Built-Ins are also log-and-burners contained in two boxes. However, you can install them just about anywhere. No chimney? No problem. Like inserts, you have the option of a vented or non-vented model.

Log Sets are the simplest and most affordable option. Your specialist will install a gas burner in your fireplace, which creates flames under a ceramic log. Doing so will require drilling to access your gas line if you’ve never had a gas fireplace. Unlike inserts or built-ins, a large share of the heat escapes through the flue.

Material Options

If faux wood doesn’t suit your taste, worry not. There are so many more great options, whether you’re looking for something rustic, modern, or in-between for your Washington, residence.

Popular materials include:

• Ceramic stones
• Glass rocks
• Faux coal

These materials come in many color and shape variations. Find one today that matches your home.

Ventilation Options

Gas fireplaces have less soot, smoke, and odor—that’s one of their biggest advantages. However, like a gas stovetop, they give off small traces of airborne contaminants like carbon monoxide (CO), sulfur oxides, and nitrogen.

Vented fireplaces expel these pollutants to the outdoors through a chimney or flue. While this ensures maximum indoor air quality, the ventilation causes them to lose some energy efficiency.

Remember to discuss options with your Air Flo specialist—we’re always happy to help find the best solution for your home.
