Do you know what a traditional fireplace of wood stove look like? A conventional wood fireplace is rectangular and features a fireplace surround made of bricks or stones. And another feature of traditional wood fireplace designs is a wooden mantel made of cherry or mahogany.

Homemakers who want a traditional style with a little flair would like to select to add marble or ceramic tile around the fireplace and under the mantel. Even if traditional style is timeless, homeowners should still consider updating their traditional wood fireplaces with modern elements from time to time.

You must have heard of the inset stove. Inset stoves that fundamentally feature a shell set up into your open fireplace can transform an average hearth into an affordable and aesthetically beautiful source of heat. Normally, inset stoves can effortlessly fit into a standard fireplace and can offer an assortment of advantages that make them ideal for any home. You can choose small stove or bigger inset stove.

The insert can be customized to fit the existing firebox and to use the existing chimney. The wood burner with insert is popular in cottage country, where a natural gas hookup may not be readily available.

Cleaning is less of an issue as creosote and ash are not present. Gas fireplaces can be made to look like brick or masonry or fitted with wooden mantels to enhance any decor.
