April chills got you down? Staring into an abyss of endless winter? Luckily, there’s a stylish solution for that. Natural gas fireplaces ooze luxury, putting the snazz back into cool-weather living. With such a variety of colours and designs, everyone will be able to find that perfect companion for when they’re casually penning a few novels or swirling some good scotch. Here are five reasons to put one of these beauties on your wishlist.
Forget the days of kindling log burnings and desperately crossing fingers to hope they don’t extinguish themselves overnight. With a gas fire, the heat is totally consistent and puts the user totally in control.
With the mere flick of a switch, your home will roar into life - without collecting or chopping firewood. It’s easy to work - even for children - and some fireplaces even offer remote operation, so you can adjust the heating from different parts of the house.
Natural gas fireplaces are a long-term investment. They’re actually cheaper than installing a wood-burner (often because they have a venting system and don’t require a chimney) and will ultimately save you money off your bills because of their renowned energy-efficiency.
No ash to clean and no sparks to worry about? No residue on the glass? No smoke touring your house? You won’t be shovelling anything here anytime soon. These fireplaces are especially good for children, pets and those with allergies. With a gas fireplace, you’re not contributing to the destruction of trees and you’re not emitting ash particles into the air around your property.
Gas fireplaces come in a huge variety of shapes and styles, imitating everything from rustic log burners and ornate Victorian stoves to sleek, minimalist designs. Unlike log-burners, they are suitable for a variety of living spaces, ultimately giving the homeowner more freedom when it comes to designing their heating system.
