Common indoor fireplaces

There are four common types of fireplaces, each with various subtypes.

Wood burning fireplaces

This is how most people picture a fireplace; with wood cracking in the background and a romantic fire roaring on. Wood burning fireplaces are the oldest type and factors such as expense, ease of install and energy efficiency make them usable to date. There are four types available:

• Traditional Open hearth – this is the oldest and sadly the least energy efficient. They are constructed of brick or stone and the closer you get the more warmth you feel, and you can even smell the wood burning. They are okay in old buildings in which they were originally built. Installing one in your modern home will require a decent amount of work.
• Fireplace inserts – these are designs that have been constructed to slide into your existing open-hearth fireplace to enclose it and make it more energy efficient
• Enclosed Fireplaces – these are similar in design to the open hearth fire places, the only difference is these are closed.
• Wood burning stoves – these are like portable fireplaces that allow you to burn wood for heat in your home. They usually require pipes to transmit smoke outside.

Electric Fireplaces

Electric fireplaces are the energy effective, and have an easier fireplace installation process. Customization can be done, with a variety of fire effects. Different examples where you can install include:

• Mantel Electric fireplaces
• TV stand electric fireplaces

Gas Burning Fireplaces

Gas burning fireplaces are more energy efficient, while creating more heat energy. They burn clean, without ash remnants. Different types include:

• Ventless fireplaces – these don’t require chimneys, and they burn cleanly with a blue flame
• Direct vented fireplaces – these can use an existing chimney, if one is not present, using pipes is recommended.

Ethanol burning fireplaces

The popularity of ethanol burning fireplaces is on the rise, and this can be attributed to their ease of installation & willingness to fit with any budget and décor. Although they don’t create as much heat as gas burners, they burn clean -  and require minimal installation. They include:

• Wall Mounted Fireplaces
• Fireplace conversion
• Tabletop Fireplaces
