March 6, 2019

The simple fact is that nothing truly can match the ambiance of a fireplace on a cool winters night. Homeowners that have them use them all throughout the winter season and those that don’t often inquire about getting. If you’re in the market for a new fireplace you have to understand that you have options. Since this is something you wont be purchasing maybe ever again, here are some questions to ask yourself or your fireplace expert when adding one into your home. 

1. What is Your Budget?: With so many different fireplace types and models, your budget should be discussed with a professional. From a basic model to some more premier, what can you expect to get with different amounts of money? 

2. How Much Interaction or Maintenance Do You Want?: From gas and electric fireplaces to wood burning fireplaces, some require more effort to manage than others. Some people like gas or electric because they’re easy to turn on and there is no cleanup. Others like wood burning fireplaces even if it takes more work because that sweet wood crackling noise just can’t be beat. 

3. What Is Your Decor Style?: Like any accessory that you add into your house, it needs to match a certain look and feel that you’re trying to obtain. 

4. How Warm Would You Like it To Be?: Talk to your local fireplace expert on expectation of how you can obtain different ranges of heat. Some fireplaces can help reduce heating bills in homes by 20-40 percent.
