About this service
A Dimplex insert is a specialized unit designed to slide into an existing masonry or wood-burning fireplace opening to modernize it. It converts a drafty, unused fireplace into a clean, easy-to-use electric heat source. You should consider this if you have a traditional fireplace you no longer want to use for wood fires but still want to enjoy the appearance of flames. Costs vary based on the insert size and technology; exact pricing confirmed free on the call.
Many people don't realize that electric fireplaces are perfect for summer evenings. Since you can turn off the heating element entirely, you can keep the aesthetic charm of the fireplace running on a warm night. It creates a relaxing mood for entertaining guests or unwinding after a long day without adding any heat to your home.
