Are you tired of losing heat up the chimney instead of enjoying a warm and cozy home? Do you notice cold air seeping through your fireplace when it’s not in use? If so, you’re not alone. Fortunately, Western Fireplace Supply offers the perfect solution with our high-efficiency fireplace inserts from top brands like Heat & Glo, Fireplace Xtrordinair, and Lopi.

Fireplace inserts are designed to transform your drafty, inefficient fireplace into a clean-burning, efficient heat source that significantly enhances your home’s comfort. Whether you prefer wood, gas, or pellet fuel, our extensive selection of inserts provides effective heating solutions tailored to meet your needs.

What is a Fireplace Insert?
A fireplace insert is a self-contained appliance that fits seamlessly into your existing wood-burning fireplace. These versatile inserts can be powered by gas, wood pellets, or wood and installed by qualified professionals to ensure optimal performance and safety.

Benefits of Upgrading to a Fireplace Insert
While traditional open wood fireplaces offer charming ambiance, they are usually negatively efficient. The open wood-burning fireplace takes room air that you paid your furnace to heat to keep the fire burning, and that heat rises and escapes the home up the chimney. To make matters worse, negative air pressure has often been created. Hence, the home replaces the heat that just left the house with cold air drawn into the house through gaps around windows, doors, can lights, bathroom fans, etc. These drafty, open, energy-wasting fireplaces also lead to higher utility bills and underutilization. Installing a fireplace insert can resolve these common problems and make your home’s family room comfortable.

Improved Efficiency and Comfort
The great news is that most wood-burning fireplaces can accommodate a fireplace insert. Experts agree that “any fireplace insert will improve efficiency since there is no longer an open chimney to the outside of the home.” For example, a gas fireplace insert can boost heating efficiency from approximately 15% with wood to approximately 70%, allowing for greater fuel conversion into usable heat.

Wood Burning Fireplace Inserts: Efficiency and Aesthetics Combined
If you love the crackle and warmth of a wood fire but are tired of watching heat escape up the chimney, a wood-burning insert is the answer. These inserts fit seamlessly into your existing masonry fireplace and can return up to five times more heat to your home compared to an open fireplace.

Why Choose Wood Burning Inserts?

Increased Efficiency: Traditional open fireplaces are known for their inefficiency. They lose up to 80% of the heat they generate as it escapes up the chimney, which means they only use about 20% of the heat to warm your home. In contrast, Lopi wood-burning fireplace inserts are designed to be significantly more efficient, often achieving heat efficiencies between 70% and 85% or higher.

A Lopi insert can retain up to four times more heat than a traditional fireplace. Its built-in convection chamber effectively circulates warm air throughout your home, enhancing your comfort and helping reduce heating costs. Upgrade to a Lopi wood-burning fireplace insert and enjoy a more energy-efficient heating solution!

Zone Heating Benefits: The concept of zone heating is well-supported. By installing a Lopi wood insert to heat specific home areas, homeowners can reduce their reliance on central heating systems, potentially leading to energy savings. The claim of 20% to 40% energy savings is plausible, depending on the home’s layout, insulation, and management of the heating systems.

User-Friendly Design: Lopi inserts come with a five-sided convection chamber for even heat distribution and are easy to operate with a single control for regulating heat output and wood consumption. Many models also feature a bypass damper for smokeless startup and reloading.

Reliability During Power Outages: A Lopi wood-burning insert ensures you stay warm and self-sufficient during power outages, with some models offering a radiant cooktop surface for warming food and beverages.

All of Lopi’s high-efficiency, clean-burning wood-burning insert models also qualify for the 2023-2032 USA Energy Tax Credit for biomass appliances.

Pellet Fireplace Inserts: Embrace 21st Century Technology
Updating an old, drafty fireplace has never been easier with a Lopi pellet insert. Simply slide it into your existing fireplace, and you’ll transform a messy, outdated space into a highly efficient, attractive, and convenient heat source.

Key Features of Pellet Inserts:

Long Heating Duration: The largest pellet models can heat significant areas for up to 52 hours on a single load of environmentally friendly pellets.
Automated Convenience: Enjoy the warmth of wood with the convenience of automated feeding and thermostatic temperature control, making them ideal when a gas line is impractical.
Easy Installation: Most pellet inserts can be installed in your existing chimney, requiring only a new stainless steel liner.

Lopi’s high-efficiency, clean-burning pellet stove models qualify for the 2023-2032 USA Energy Tax Credit for biomass appliances.
