"ZERO stars should be an option! DO NOT USE THIS COMPANY. The quality of the merchandise is good, however, the company itself leaves a GREAT deal to be desired. We ordered 2 fireplace inserts, and it took nearly 6 months for the units and parts to come in. Once they did come in, it took another month for scheduling. Bear in mind, that there were absolutely no calls, emails, or any other form of communications from the company unless I CALLED THEM. When the installation was to be done, they made an error in the order. They ordered a natural gas unit, when we are on propane. They were WELL aware that we use propane, so even more delays. After installation was finally completed, the direct vent unit that was installed in our master bedroom started to flame out. Bear in mind that this happened during the coldest portion of this past winter! I spoke with their technical support personnel about this and they made suggestions as they believed that it had to do with airflow (to much or to little). After making the adjustments, I informed them that both dampers were FULLY closed, and it would still flame out, but would last far longer than before. Both of our units were to be remote control thermostats. We got the one that we were supposed to for the master bedroom, but they forgot to bring the one for the living room, so we were given a temporary remote to use with it, and they said "We will bring the correct one the next time we are in your area." Guess what...no remote, no sighting of personnel, or anything. So, appointments have been made and rescheduled since January, and the unit is STILL NOT FIXED. Once again, ZERO communication from this company unless I called them first! This complete lack of communication is just not acceptable from any service oriented company, no matter if this was the '70s, or the modern time in which we live. I understand that things happen such as employee illness, COVID, etc. Just TELL ME WHAT IS GOING ON. It seems that this simple courtesy is far to much to ask from this company."

A gas log fireplace should be inspected and serviced as needed once a year. Preventative maintenance can help keep your fireplace in working condition and save money in the long run by avoiding more costly repairs on parts that could have been fixed sooner with a regular inspection.
The cost difference between a gas fireplace and a wood-burning fireplace depends on the type of wood-burning fireplace installed. The cost to install a gas fireplace tends to be cheaper than the cost to install a brick wood-burning fireplace. Installing a gas fireplace costs about $3,600 on average, whereas the cost to build a masonry wood-burning fireplace can go up to $30,000. The cost to install a wood-burning fireplace insert or stove can cost from $700 to $6,500, about the same as a gas fireplace on average.
The cost to repair a fireplace depends on the type, extent of repairs needed, and your location. The average cost to repair a fireplace varies depending on the part of the fireplace that needs work:
Firebox: $160–$2,500
Refractory panel: $200–$300
Hearth: $150–$800
Mantel: $500–$1,200
Pilot light: $100–$350
Igniter: $100–$150
Gas valve: $150–$300
Thermocouple: $75–$350
Thermopile: $75–$350
Yes, it can be worth installing a gas fireplace, depending on your home heating needs. The cost to install a gas fireplace can be much lower than the cost to install a comparable wood-burning fireplace. The convenience of starting a fire with the flip of a switch and turning it off just as quickly makes a gas fireplace a big time saver over starting and maintaining a wood-fueled fire. A gas fireplace also does not require ash cleanup or frequent chimney cleaning to remove creosote and other buildup that can lead to chimney fires. Gas fireplaces burn and heat much more cleanly than wood fireplaces.
A gas fireplace insert costs about $3,600 to install, on average. The cost to install a gas log insert ranges from about $700 to $6,500, depending on the size, type of insert, how it works, and heating needs. Gas fireplaces need electrical and gas lines installed properly, so hiring a pro is recommended rather than trying to DIY installation.
