Direct-Vent Gas Fireplaces
Direct-vent fireplaces are sealed combustion units (they do not use air from your home to operate), so the fire is always behind a piece of safety glass, acting as a fireplace screen. This style of gas fireplace is vented through the exterior wall of your home and cased in a marble surround with a wood mantel.
Gas fireplaces are easy to maintain, and they offer an efficient, cost-effective way to enjoy the warmth of a fire in just minutes. But not all fireplaces are created equal. At KJW, we are proud to offer the premium brand of direct-vent fireplace units: Heatilator. Renowned for quality, dependability and value, Heatilator is the number one choice for first-time homebuyers, homebuilders and custom home experts alike.
With our annual service plans and NFI certified installers trained in all the latest techniques, we are the fireplace installers you need in the Upstate New York area. You can depend on MIG for a custom fireplace that will deliver comfort, convenience and efficiency for years to come.
Direct-Vent Fireplace Inserts
Fireplace inserts convert your existing wood burning fireplaces to energy-efficient gas.
Direct-vent inserts are also a sealed combustion product. The combustion chamber is placed behind a piece of safety glass, which acts as a fireplace screen, and they vent through a piping system that must be installed inside of your existing chimney. As a result, the choice to invest in a direct-vent insert for your fireplace is a more significant investment than a vented gas log for your fireplace. The benefit is a very energy-efficient product that can be used as a secondary heat source for your entire house.
If you are currently using a wood burning fireplace in your home, and want the luxurious feel of a gas fireplace without the cost of remodeling your entire fireplace, choosing a direct-vent fireplace insert may be the ideal option for you. At KJW, we carry the Kingsman – the most top of the line brand of direct-vent fireplace inserts available in Upstate NY. With more than 30 years behind the name, builders and homeowners alike rely on Kingsman products for complete safety and incomparable craftsmanship.
