Gas and Propane: Affordable Fuel Choices
If you’ve ever owned a traditional fireplace, you probably already know that firewood can be a pain to chop, dry, and store. Even if you enjoy the art of working with firewood, you might not be able to afford it. Several factors go into determining the cost of firewood, such as your location and the demand for wood in the area. However, natural gas or propane are almost always the most affordable options. A gas fireplace that creates 27,000 BTUs of heat will generally cost less than 20 cents an hour to run.
Direct Vent Gas Fireplaces Are Energy Efficient
Affordability is about more than just the original price of the fireplace and how much is spent on the fuel. The efficiency of the unit also comes into play. On average, traditional wood-burning fireplaces are only 10 to 25 percent efficient, meaning that a huge amount of the heat that is produced goes right up the chimney instead of into your home. Direct vent gas fireplaces are up to 80 percent efficient, keeping the heat trapped within the home where it can do its job.
Gas Fireplaces Will Increase the Value of Your Home
Installing a gas fireplace can earn you additional money if you ever decide to sell your home. In fact, statistics show that up to 91 percent of the purchase and installation costs are often paid for when the added value of the home is taken into account. Therefore, you shouldn’t hold off on buying a fireplace you love just because you know you’ll likely be moving in a few years.
