Marcus Tullius Cicero said, "There is not place more delightful than one's own fireplace."

Certainly in Metro West Boston in the middle of January, while the cold weather is upon us, this is the case. But if you have an open fireplace, there is a better way to run your fireplace without the high cost. If you are an occasional fireplace user because of the nature or design of your fireplace, now is the time to make the change.

Gas logs and glass fireplace doors are an easier way to make your fireplace more efficient and easier to use while still costing far less than a fireplace insert. Open fireplaces draw the heat out of the room and up your chimney. Wood burning fireplaces take effort, hauling and stacking firewood.

For these reason, open fireplaces are not too easy or efficient  to use. Certainly, after a long day at work, the last thing you want t to do is load up the fireplace and light the inefficient fire. Gas log sets and fireplace doors allow you to be able to use the fireplace whenever you desire, even after a long day at work.

Gas logs are lit by flicking a switch. Push the button the fire is blazing. Peterson Real Fyre gas log sets have a look that is incredibly similar to natural wood. In fact, they are all hand-crafted and hand-painted from real wood samples. And, you have more than 40 styles of log sets to choose from. Real Fyre gas logs are the most realistic looking gas logs on the market.

Gas logs and standard glass fireplace doors are faster to install than fireplace inserts, which means you can enjoy them for the rest of the winter.  There is nothing like a fire with Real Fyre gas logs, and the fire you burn will be the cleanest, most economical, most convenient alternative to burning real wood.

This is the time of year where enjoying that warm, cozy glow coming from a fireplace on a cold winter's night is a great way to spend an evening.

Cozy, warm, efficient fireplace inserts can be easily installed into an open masonry hearth with little fuss and no mess in any home, new or old.

People love a fire in the fireplace. The conversion from wood to gas has been a big thing over the years, but both wood burning fireplace inserts and gas fireplace inserts are popular around Metro West Boston.

Gas or wood fireplace inserts are sealed for combustion and create a more efficient heat source than open fireplaces.

Gas fireplace inserts are a good choice to heat a cool room, basement or three-season porch, because they give off a lot of heat and are very efficient. In fact, they are more efficient than most furnaces.

They produce a ton of heat, they're very efficient and they can heat your home even if you lose power from a winter storm. It's almost like zoned heating, yet they look beautiful aesthetically.

Customers can choose from a wide variety of sizes and styles to fit any home décor. Wood logs, stones and glass beads come in several colors are also options to change the look of the fire.

Fireplace inserts can basically meet anybody's style or requirements. Flame size and height can be adjusted with a remote control and most gas inserts can be run with a thermostat for even heating.

If your home has a heating issue and you have gas available, a gas insert is a beautiful, efficient option.

We have a gas fireplace insert in the upstairs of our home. This is also where the thermostat is located. Because the fireplace insert keeps our home so warm, the thermostat never tells the furnace to turn on. This is perfect for keeping the heating bills lower. However, not so perfect for heating our one downstairs TV room where the kids hang out with friends. Because the central heat in our home does not turn on, the basement room was never heated.

We didn’t know of a good solution. So we went to The Fireplace and Grill Shop at West Sport in Sudbury for advice about a solution.  The suggested the Comfort Furnace, which is an electric infrared heater. The heater is safe, there is no hot heating element that can catch fire.

It is electric heat, and electric heat is ‘supposed to be’ inefficient. However, the Comfort Furnace electric heater does not heat like traditional space heaters. This efficient space heater costs about one dollar a day to run.  This electric infrared heater has 35-50% more heating efficiency than base board heaters. Infrared heaters not only warm people, they warm objects, so the heat is radiated throughout the room.

Unlike most heaters which have uneven hot spots, this is an infrared heater so the heat surrounds you. It works the way the sun heats – providing a soft, convection-like heat. Comfort Furnace heats the air through infrared heating elements. This heated air is then directed back into the indoor environment by fans – through a grill on the front of the unit. This makes a heat that is balanced between floor and ceiling by no more than a few degrees difference.

Now, our basement room is warm and cozy, the upstairs is heated with a gas fireplace insert, and our furnace never turns on. For more information on whole home heating solutions, contact West Sport.
