Exploring Different Fuel Types

Know which appliance you’d like, but aren’t sure which fuel is best for you? Let’s go over your options…

• Wood: Wood is the most traditional fuel, so if you’re wanting to fully embrace that classic fireplace aesthetic, this is a great route to take. Just keep in mind, it’s a bit more maintenance, especially if you’re seasoning your own wood. There’s hauling and storage involved, and you’ll need to know how to build and maintain fires too. Overall, wood is definitely the highest-maintenance fuel choice – but always well worth it!
• Gas: For those looking to create a cozy atmosphere only without the work of stoking a fire, putting it out, scooping ash, and the like, gas is an ideal option. Gas appliances nowadays are more realistic than ever, meaning you can get that idyllic ambiance with only the push of a button or flip of a switch – perfect for those with a busy lifestyle.
• Pellet: Pellets are ideal in lots of ways. They allow homeowners to enjoy a real fire, just with less of the work involved with a wood-burning system. You simply load your hopper with pellets, then sit back and relax while it automatically dispenses more fuel, as needed.
  
• Electric: And if you’re wanting a fuel that excels in flexibility and affordability, electric is the pick for you. Electric options can be placed anywhere as long as there’s an outlet nearby, and they don’t have to stay with the house if you eventually leave it. They won’t always look the most realistic, but they’re sure to enhance your space regardless.
