Anyone would love to enjoy the ambiance and warmth of having a crackling fireplace at home. However, getting a fireplace installed at home has become a tedious task for most of the individuals because a variety of options are available for you to consider. On the other hand, you need to pay special attention towards a variety of factors such as budget, design preferences and energy needs when getting one installed at home. Here is a list of the most prominent types of fireplaces that are available for you to install at your place.

 

  1. Masonry fireplaces

Back in the day, masonry fireplaces produced more ambiance than heat. However, they have changed significantly since then and the masonry fireplaces that you can see out there in the world are extremely power efficient. However, the cost associated with a masonry fireplace depends based on the material used, the hearth, chimney caps and chimney lines.

The gas fireplaces are housed in a metal casing of their own. If you are living in a house where there isn’t much space, this would be a good available option to consider. That’s because a gas fireplace can be installed virtually anywhere within your home. Gas fireplaces have also changed significantly over the past and the quality and quantity of flame has been improved. They also come with electronic remote controllers, which can help you to keep peace of mind while using. The automated temperature control and child safety locks are some of the safety features that you can find in gas fireplaces.
