I have a wood burning fireplace that is no doubt a big energy sucker and doesn’t put out all that much heat. Though it’s not shallow like the old coal burning ones (the previous owners had it redone to be wood-burning capable), it’s still too shallow to get going a big enough fire to put off enough heat to warm the (big) room. I’ve been looking into wood-burning fireplace inserts (like a stove that inserts, sometimes projecting out like a bay window), but they’re all far too country-style for our modern-industrial interior. Anyone know of a source for more modern ones? Know of a good fireplace contractor (or do you use a GC?)? Have experience with fireplace inserts?? Thanks!

  1. Hey Tanner, I have a question for you about a prior post. If you don’t mind, can you email me at colonelak@hotmail.com when you have some time (no rush at all). We may be working with the same people and I would love to swap notes. Sorry, I have nothing for you regarding the fireplace thouhg 🙂 Thanks! A

  2. Tanner,

    Both Heat-N-Glo and Heatilator make wood burning. If you can’t find one on the site, call them directly. I know they both have gas and wood.

    If you can’t find what you’re looking for and the manufacturer is no help, click on my profile and go to my website to get my phone and I’ll help you.
