For Quality Chimney & Fireplace Installations, Call on Mason’s Chimney Service
A well-built fireplace or stove is the perfect focal point for a home. When installed properly, adding either appliance to your living space is a way to bring warmth and character to your home while showcasing your aesthetic. If you have an inefficient or outdated fireplace – or you don’t have one at all – you have several different installation options.
First, consider what will work best in your house. Do you want a fireplace, stove, or insert? Do you want to fuel it with wood, gas, or pellets? Each type of fuel and appliance has different benefits and will be best suited for certain spaces and certain needs. The National Fireplace Institute (NFI)-certified Master Hearth Professionals from Mason’s Chimney Service can give you all the information you need to make an informed decision about the best addition to your home.

I Want To Install a Fireplace or Stove – What Are My Options?
You’ve made the decision to install a new fireplace or stove, but that’s only the beginning. Now, you have to decide between the type of appliance you want, which fuel source is best for it, and the design materials. The number of choices can feel overwhelming when you don’t know where to start, but we’re here to help you sort through it all.
Traditional fireplaces and chimneys are made of masonry – in other words, brick and mortar. These, as we all know, can be beautiful and long-lasting additions to a home. Options for materials and styles are many; you can choose exterior brick and firebricks in a variety of colors and designs. Building a new masonry fireplace and chimney is more work-intensive than factory-built options, and will need to be built on a concrete footing that can handle the weight of all that masonry. But for homeowners who really love that traditional look, it’s a choice that’s second to none.
Factory-built systems bring a lot of benefits. They’re designed largely with metal and glass to be far lighter than a masonry fireplace and chimney, so installation options – without a concrete footing – are much broader. These units are also highly insulated, which allows installation in closer proximity to materials that can be combustible. The metal and glass construction makes them highly affordable, and the fireplace and chimney are built and tested together to meet rigorous safety and efficiency standards.
Modern wood-burning stoves also offer a lot of different options for adding a heating appliance to indoor and outdoor spaces. They are standalone units that offer a wide range of flexibility in regards to location, and they are smaller which makes placement easier. New models are highly efficient and come in a variety of styles and colors, from classic black cast iron to brightly colored ceramic, in retro and modern designs and shapes.
Homeowners with existing appliances might also want to think about inserts, which a Mason’s Chimney Service technician can retrofit where that existing unit is, refreshing its look and function. New inserts also pass strict U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) emissions standards, so you can feel good about installing a clean and efficient addition to your home.
