Switch from Wood to Gas and Enjoy the Glow.

If you love the smell of wood burning inside your home,  there’s no substitute for a wood-burning fireplace. And yet that rich, full odor is only part of what comes with burning wood. You have ashes to clean, wood to buy, wood to store, a chimney to clean to prevent a creosote fire and prevent bats or squirrels from joining you for breakfast, and more.

If your fireplace is becoming an increasing bother, there’s a simple and practical solution: switch to a gas log fireplace. One that we can fit into your existing wood fireplace or install pretty much anywhere you like.

Advantages of a Gas Log Fireplace

Look closely at a gas fireplace and, if you didn’t already know better, you’d swear there was wood burning inside of it. Except there isn’t. Gas fireplaces light up a room or area with a remarkable sense of warmth and comfort, a feeling you can enjoy, with the flip of a switch, just like that.

Energy Efficient

A gas fireplace lets you control the amount of natural or propane gas used at any one time. It also turns on and off with the flip of a switch, so no time or energy is wasted in heating it up or cooling it down. Another eco-friendly advantage is the absence of smoke.

Easy to Use

Gas fireplace inserts eliminate the sometimes messy and time-consuming task of lighting and maintaining a wood fire. Manipulating the amount of heat output with a wood-burning fireplace can also be tricky. With a gas fireplace, a flip of the switch turns it on and off and enables you to maintain exactly the right temperature.

Low Maintenance

Gone will be the need to sweep up and remove the ashes after each use. Gas fireplaces are simply much easier to clean. As for the rest of its upkeep, count on Zach Heating and Cooling to handle that for you.

Good to Have During a Power Outage

Gas log fireplaces will continue to work safely during a power outage. Wouldn’t it be great to have a reliable heat source during a snow, ice, and wind storm?!

No Smoke or Embers

Since no physical material is burning, there will be no sparks, embers, smoke, or other fumes to worry about with a gas fireplace. That added safety will mean even more if you have small children and pets at home.
