About this service
An electric insert is a specialized unit designed to slide directly into an existing fireplace cavity. This service is for homeowners who want to modernize an old hearth without removing the surrounding brick or stone. We measure your opening and install a custom-fit insert that provides heat and a realistic digital flame. Price factors include the size and technical specs of the insert.
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.
