Types Of Fireplaces

fireplaces Fireplace varieties include ones made by masonry, ones made out of concrete and those that are prefabricated. Some burn wood and others have gas jets inside them. Gas fireplaces are also known as vented fireplaces. They are fueled by gas and function to produce heat or be used just for decorative purposes. There are three types of gas fireplaces: direct vent, top vent and vent-free. Direct vent types use two pipes, one that brings gas in and one that takes gas out. Top vent gas fireplaces are installed into existing fireplaces using the existing chimney as an exhaust. Vent-free gas fireplaces use no vent; they have a sensor that detects when oxygen levels are getting low in an environment and shut off accordingly.
