Tips for choosing the fireplace

The ideal fireplace varies depending on the home, the needs and its usefulness. Furthermore, correct combustion is the fundamental condition to guarantee comfort, safety, savings and environmental impact. Therefore, good advice from a professional is vital.

Metal fireplaces are ideal for smaller spaces, because they are small, visually light and their installation is quick. As it is made of metallic materials, the heat output is faster and greater than that of a module. On the other hand, built-in fireplaces are ideal for larger spaces, with built-in cubic designs and hidden flues that reduce the home to a hole. Installation typically takes three days.

If a heat recovery is incorporated, the fireplace becomes a clean, safe and high-performance heat source. For the maintenance of all wood-burning fireplaces, an annual inspection and cleaning of the flue is recommended.
