Choosing Fireplaces

When it comes to fireplaces, there are three main types of units that you can choose from including fireplace inserts, zero clearance fireplaces and freestanding fireplaces. Below is a brief description of these types of fireplaces. This article will also discuss some of the common fireplace styles that many are using to design their homes.

Types of Fireplaces

The fireplace insert is specifically designed for being installed in an existing fireplace location. This is the best option to changing your fireplace to another fuel source. The most popular option for many in gas fireplace inserts.

Zero clearance fireplaces are specifically designed for those who have minimal space between the fireplace and combustible materials like studs and wallboard.

Lastly, there are freestanding fireplaces, which are perfect for places where you need supplemental heating such as basements.

Fireplace Styles

Fireplace manufacturers are staring to offer more styles and features to their fireplace options in order to meet consumer demands and in an effort to offer more than their competitors do. The most popular styles of fireplaces today are the corner fireplace and the see through fireplace. However, consider some of the more popular options below so you can find a design that interests you or works well with your home design.

The first is an outdoor fireplace, which is an excellent addition to a location where the family and friends can gather. The most popular option is the outdoor brick fireplace which can also increase the marketability and value of your home should you choose to sell.

The second option is the corner fireplace, which is perfect for smaller living spaces such as apartments, condominiums, lofts or single-family homes. A corner fireplace will make the perfect focal point of a room. A corner electric fireplace also provides a very convenient installation point.

Next is the multi-sided island fireplace. With this option, you get a style that is attractive as well as functional. These fireplaces will effectively radiate heat in multiple directions due to the open four-sided design of the fireplace.

Then there is a see thru fireplace, which can provide a unique barrier between two main rooms or a gathering location. With this option, you get not only a room divider, but you also get two beautiful fireplaces for the price of one.

Alternatively, consider the peninsula gas fireplace, which gives you a dramatic design that is visually appealing with three open viewing sides as well as a very energy efficient heating option.

Lastly, there is the fireplace stove option. This will provide your home with a traditional appearance that will last for many generations to come.

No matter which type or style of fireplace you choose you will be making an excellent addition that adds to the value of your home. Take the time to carefully consider all your options and choose a design that both works with your home and is a pleasing choice that shows off your unique style. With so many options to choose from you are sure to find the perfect choice.

How long will a cord of dried oak wood last in a moderate fireplace fire in 30 degree weather?

A MODERATE FIRE 24/7
No it's not! 30 degree is na reciever of penetration

30 degree weather is irrelevant unless you specify the heat loss of whatever ambient you are trying to heat up. How big is the fireplace => how many logs at one time would you burn? What is a "moderate ... fire"? Trying to keep the fireplace room at 31 degrees, 50, 70? A fireplace loses most of the heat it generates through the flue, heating up the great outdoors (or trying to).

A cord could last as little as 2 weeks and probably no more than 5-6 months, which is irrelevant unless you live in North Dakota ... where 30 degree weather is a heat wave!
