Wood Fireplaces  For decades, homeowners have enjoyed the affordability and availability of wood and the unbeatable beauty of a wood-burning fire, but efficiency and environmental-friendliness has never been a strong point for wood fireplaces…until now. Today’s wood fireplaces give the eco-conscious homeowner the ability to enjoy the classic charm and high heat of wood, without the guilt. That’s because today’s wood-burning fireplaces are cleaner-burning and more efficient than ever before and can provide longer burn times using less fuel. Now, that’s great news!

Gas Fireplaces — Gas fireplaces have always been treasured by homeowners with busy schedules and a desire to enjoy a fire without all the work and waiting, but gas logs of old were fake-looking and didn’t offer a very realistic-looking flame. But that’s changed. Today’s highly efficient gas fireplaces boast much more realistic-looking flames and hand-crafted logs cast from real logs for a more authentic look. Additionally, modern gas fireplaces offer even more convenience than gas fireplaces of the past. What’s not to love?

Electric Fireplaces —Electric fireplaces are great at making a statement and adding style, ambiance, and zone heating to a smaller space. Modern electric fireplaces can help you reduce energy costs by allowing you to heat the room you’re in without relying on your HVAC system. These fireplaces are also great because they allow you to turn the heat off and just enjoy the beauty of the flames, even during those hot summer nights.
