Propane Hearths: The Beauty of a Wood Fire at the Touch of a Button

Posted: January 28, 2019

Everyone loves the warm glow of a fire. But let’s face it – gathering wood and sweeping ash can get tiresome after a while.

With a propane hearth, that warm glow is just a button-click away – and best of all, you can install one without a chimney, or even inside an existing wood-burning fireplace!

Types of propane hearths

Propane hearth installations fall into two general categories:

• Propane fireplaces and cast iron stoves, which are free-standing or wall-hung appliances that you install from the ground up.
• Propane fireplace inserts and log sets, which are devices that you add to an existing wood-burning / masonry fireplace (a propane fireplace insert is basically a sealed combustion box that fits inside your masonry fireplace and vents through your chimney; propane gas log sets include a burner and ceramic or concrete logs).

Both of these categories of propane hearths can be extremely realistic, and they’re available in a number of sizes and finishes to match just about any décor. Installing a propane fireplace insert or log set takes about a day; a fireplace installation can take a bit longer.
