Fireside Home & Comfort (www.fireside.es)
Gas fireplaces have come a long way in recent years. The ease of use (they can simply be switched on and off, sometimes even remotely); their hygienic properties (no messy logs or firelighters, billowing smoke or embers) and their safety (no open flames to keep children and pets away from) have seen them outstrip real fires in popularity. The designs now come in every style one could imagine, from classic, country or colonial, to modern contemporary or avant-garde.
Whatever the style of your room or type of home, there is a gas fireplace that will complement it, whether a bustling family house or slick bachelor pad. This goes some way to explaining their increasing popularity, but it is the fact that people are more aware of environmental concerns and demand that the air quality of their home is as healthy as possible, that makes direct vent fireplaces a popular choice.
Gas fireplaces without vents expel all of the fumes, odours and moisture straight into your home, and as they use indoor air for combustion, any matter floating in the air of your house is burned and expelled back into the room, which is not ideal when you consider the dust, pet hair and other particles floating in even the cleanest home. By contrast, direct vent fireplaces expel 100% of the by-products of the fire (carbon monoxide, nitrous oxides, fumes, etc.) outside of your home via the vent, leaving the air inside your home crystal clear. Only air from outside is used to fuel the fire and the sealed glass front has a balanced flue system which allows any soot, odours or moisture to be directed straight outside of your home.
Being able to have the warmth, comfort, convenience and elegance of a fire, without any of the mess and hassle of a real fire or un-vented gas fire, is like a breath of fresh air to home-owners.
