Gas Insert Manufactures
Our gas insert collection is from Mendota, Kozy Heat, Valor, Ironstrike, and Regency. Mendota offers four units: two different-size units in their full-view collection and 2 in their traditional D-Series. Kozy Heat offers six different inserts, 4 in their Chaska Series and 2 in the Jordan Series. The inserts come in a traditional look and a contemporary design. Valor offers three different-sized radiant heaters and a retro-fire that is a great solution for those small prefab fireplaces that we all hate. Ironstrike offers a bunch of different inserts with their new Madison Park Series and their Bellevue and Ravenna Inserts. Regency offers 12 different fireplace inserts with their older style units as well as newer full-view designs. Gas inserts are full units that are inserted into the fireplace and require venting. The venting consists of 2 aluminum flex pipes; one which takes out the exhaust and the other which brings in fresh air to the unit. The last component of the vent system is the special termination cap that is attached to the top of the chimney which seperates the exhaust and the fresh air intake. Gas inserts are always sealed units with glass fronts. The biggest difference between gas inserts and gas logs is that an insert can be used as a heater. They are great as zone heaters and gas logs are mainly for aesthetics and ambiance.
