01
A fireplace can light and still have ventilation issues, liner damage, or structural concerns. A proper inspection ensures it operates safely — not just visibly.
02
Gas logs focus on creating a beautiful, low-maintenance flame, while gas inserts are engineered for higher efficiency and meaningful heat output, while still being visually appealing in their own modernistic way.
