Fireplace inserts allow a homeowner to update their current masonry fireplace with a high efficiency wood burning insert.  Wood burning inserts can be used to heat a small area of the home or in some cases, the entire house.  Many of the wood burning inserts that we sell offer efficiency ratings of over 75%,  and have burn times of over 9 hours.  With this type of efficiency and burn time you can drastically reduce the amount of wood you are currently using.
