Frequently Asked Questions

  • As a general rule, you can expect to use about one gallon of propane for every two hours you run the fireplace. Actual consumption varies depending on the BTU output of your specific model and how high you set the flame. Running costs typically range from 30–60 cents per hour depending on your local propane price.

  • Direct vent fireplaces use a sealed combustion system that draws outside air for the fire and expels all exhaust outdoors, keeping your indoor air quality unaffected. Vent-free (ventless) fireplaces require no chimney or external venting and operate at up to 99% efficiency, but they burn indoor air and release small amounts of exhaust into the home. Direct vent models are generally considered the safer option, while vent-free models are lower cost and easier to install.

  • Yes — with proper installation, propane is no different from natural gas in terms of safety when operating a hearth appliance. Most gas fireplaces include built-in safety sensors that detect gas leaks and automatically shut off the gas flow if any is detected. For vented models, the EPA recommends connecting the fireplace to a chimney line or exterior vent to release exhaust safely outdoors.

  • Yes, you can install a propane fireplace insert to convert a traditional wood-burning fireplace to the ease and efficiency of a propane-powered unit. Inserts are sized by your fireplace's opening width, height, depth, and rear width to ensure a proper fit. A licensed gas professional should always perform the installation to meet local building codes and safety requirements.

  • For a space around 1,800 square feet, a vent-free fireplace rated upward of 35,000 BTUs is generally recommended. The right BTU output depends on your room's size, insulation quality, and whether you want supplemental or primary zone heating. Gas fireplaces can help reduce overall heating costs by allowing you to turn down your central thermostat and heat only the rooms you use most.
