How Gas Inserts Beat Open Fireplaces

A traditional open fireplace can actually make your house colder by pulling air in and sending the heat right up the chimney. A gas insert is a better choice, keeping over 80% of the heat with no ash or hassle.

Why Choose a Gas Fireplace Insert?

Think of a gas insert as a decorative furnace for your fireplace. It’s a self-contained, sealed unit that is professionally installed directly into your existing fireplace opening.

Here’s how it benefits your home:

Gas Logs VS. Gas Inserts

Many people get gas logs and gas inserts confused, but they are very different products.

Gas Logs

Ambiance-first; not sealed; much of the heat escapes up the chimney. A gas log set is a decorative accessory placed inside your fireplace. While they offer the look of a fire, they are generally not efficient heaters. Since the unit is not sealed, a significant amount of heat is still lost up the chimney.

Gas Inserts

Sealed glass front; liner system; draws air in/vents out; real heating performance—like a decorative furnace. It uses a liner system to create a closed combustion loop, drawing in air from outside and venting exhaust back out. This is what makes it so much more efficient.

I have been working with American Heritage Fireplace for many years not only for my personal property, but referring many friends, family and clients.

They provide great service at a very competitive price. Highly recommend contacting them for service, repairs or full replacement.

Great work. Efficient and tidy. Replaced older insert in fireplace. Excellent product. I have a cast iron stove by same mfg. (Lopi) Upstairs in bed/sit. I now can use lower fireplace without bending to light pilot. So happy with both American Heritage and Lopi products.

As the holidays approached, we knew we wanted to make our living room extra cozy—but we didn’t expect to find such a perfect addition to our home. After some research, we ordered an electric fireplace from American Heritage Fireplace in early December. We hoped it might arrive before Christmas, though we knew that was a bit of a long shot.

What we didn’t expect was a phone call from Rachel at Heritage, just days later, telling us she had a cancellation—and the exact model we ordered had arrived that very day! Thanks to the timely call, they scheduled our installation for December 18th, just in time for the holidays.

The installation itself was smooth, and we couldn’t be more thrilled with how the fireplace turned out. Not only does it add a warm, welcoming glow to our room, but the various color options make it easy to set the mood for any occasion. Whether we’re enjoying a cozy winter evening or entertaining guests, the fireplace provides both warmth and a touch of elegance.

What really stood out to us, though, was the exceptional customer service. Rachel went above and beyond to ensure we got our fireplace installed right before Christmas, and her attention to detail made the whole experience stress-free. It was such a pleasant surprise to receive that call—and to have everything come together so perfectly!

If you're considering an electric fireplace for your own home, I highly recommend checking out American Heritage Fireplace. The combination of quality, style, and service has made a real difference in our home, and we couldn’t be happier with our decision.

I highly recommend American Heritage Fireplace as my experience with them was smooth. I stopped by the store just to see their inventory. Rachel showed me the gas fireplace inserts that would best suit my needs. Brian Gerard conveniently came to my house the next day to take measurements and explain options for the insert. When the customized insert arrived Ryan and George installed the insert on a rainy day. They laid canvas tarps on the white carpet and prevented any accidents. They were highly professional. They earned their money that rainy day, when installing the vents into the two-story chimney. Ryan trained me on the functions of the remote control and answered my questions. The outside temperature is below zero today and I am so pleased to have a warm fireplace.
