Everyone enjoys the warmth created by having a fireplace in their home. Instead of having to run their furnace more often, they can use their wood burning fireplace to save money on their energy bills.

When you want a modern style of fireplace but already have an existing unit, there are a few different options available. You could rip out your old fireplace and replace it with a brand new energy efficient design.

When choosing a model or particular style of fireplace you will need to decide between wood burning and gas designs. While gas fireplacescan cost more to operate they do provide many features and conveniences not found with wood burning models.

When you are looking for an alternative to a fireplace due to room size restrictions or placement issues, then you should look into a wood burning stove.

Chimneys can be ran directly out of the top of the stove and out through the ceiling, even when placed in the middle of the room. You can even use a stove to update your old fireplace to have a more energy efficient heating system in your home.

Older homes which have an existing chimney may or may not have a chimney liner. If it was built with a liner, it is often a clay liner, which can crack and break over time. You can install a stainless steel chimney linerfor when you do not have an existing liner, or to replace your clay liner. You do not have to take apart the chimney to install this type of liner, as it slides into the existing chimney, all the way down to the bottom.

Use a Stainless Steel Chimney Liner with New Installations

Rather than using a traditional chimney on the exterior, there are new methods for installing the chimney through the interior of the home. You will want to use a stainless steel chimney, like those available here at New Energy Distributing.

Many people enjoy having a fireplace in their home to use on cold winter nights. The only problem people face is when their home is older and the existing fireplace is not energy efficient.

You can replace your old fireplace with Napoleon wood stoves, which offer efficient and clean wood burning.
