Save Money on Heat with a Fireplace Insert
If your home has a masonry wood fireplace it could be a money saver for you. We have a fireplace in our combination kitchen/family room. A few years ago a friend of ours suggested that we take advantage of the heat from our fireplace and install a fireplace insert. We went and looked at wood fireplace inserts. We found a style that we particularly liked and it had a fan and a filter in it which help to further push warm and clean air into our home for even extra warming. We were amazed. I read somewhere that a fireplace insert can raise the heating capacity of your fireplace by 80%, and I believe it.
