Answer:
Unfortunately, none of the inserts we sell are designed to fit in fireplaces that wide or that short. You would likely need to get an insert that will fit in the middle of your fireplace and then have something custom-made to cover the rest of your opening.By Rachel Singletary from White Lake, NC on November 26, 2012

Answer:
Depending on your unit, there are a few places the manufacturer information may be located. The first location would be a metal plate that is on the left or right side of the smoke shelf bracket, right at the top of the fireplace front opening.The next place would be just on the inside of the opening, behind the fireplace screens on the left or right side. The last location would be in the void space underneath the fireplace floor. This can be accessed either through the front of the unit's louvers or through a removable floor panel underneath the bottom refractory.

Answer:
Due to the extra heat and weight of a wood burning stove or insert, most prefabricated fireplaces do not support the use of a stove or insert. With a height of only 19.5", we do not have a wood stove or insert that would fit in your existing fireplaceBy Daphne from Paso Robles, CA on January 29, 2013

Answer:
A fireplace liner can refer to either the concrete panels inside the firebox or a stainless steel liner pipe that is installed into a masonry chimney. Generally, the concrete panels can start to crack and deteriorate over years of use.It is good to check the panels for any signs of cracking, crumbling, or other deterioration. The chimney should be cleaned with a polyethylene brush, as metal can damage a manufactured chimney. Fiberglass rods with a 3/8-inch thread are fairly standard for this type of requirement.

Answer:
The largest door opening will be on the Osburn 2400 fireplace insert. This model has an opening size that measures 19 1/2 inches wide by 8 1/4 inches tall.Fireplace inserts typically have a small door size, to ensure high efficiency and a more complete burn of the fuel supply.

Answer:
This unit is able to use any listed wood burning fireplace insert, with the addition of a chimney liner. I was unable to provide the actual firebox dimensions for this unit. If you will provide the front width, rear width, depth, and height of the firebox opening, I will be happy to suggest the appropriate insert(s) for your needs.By jeff from St. Louis, MO on February 25, 2013
My question is this: we are remodeling our kitchen and first floor so we are looking for ways to keep our budget under control. Would it be possible to do this in stages, like install the insert first and stone veneer next year or visa versa?
By Collin C. - NFI Master Hearth Professional on February 26, 2013
Answer:
It would certainly be possible to install the insert first, then finish the surround at a later time. Depending on how large of a unit you are planning on installing, you may be able to remove the current fireplace and replace it with a similar sided model, which could be temporarily trimmed out.You could then remove or cover the brick veneer at a later time. I do not recommend trying to do the stone veneer first, as it will make the installation of the new unit very difficult.

Answer:
The use of a wood burning insert within a manufactured fireplace can indeed be a fuzzy subject. In order to be able to use the insert, both the manufacturer of the insert and the manufactured fireplace must specifically state that they can be used in the corresponding type of unit.Do you know the manufacturer name and model number of your existing fireplace? There is usually a build plate that is affixed to the unit, either in the bottom compartment beneath the floor or on either wall, just inside the opening near the top.

I want there to be more heat output but not have to go through so much wood. I was wondering if it were possible to put like a glass ceramic door on it to help let some of the heat out? Because the only other thing I can think of to get the heat flowing into the house is to get a screen and just leave the door open - but that is going to burn through wood even faster. Help!
By Collin C. - NFI Master Hearth Professional on November 16, 2012
Answer:
Older wood burning inserts can be plagued with inefficiency issues, depending on how they have been installed.Have you removed the metal shroud from the unit to see how it is vented into the chimney? If the unit is installed with the wrong size liner or no liner at all, they can use an exorbitant amount of fuel in a short period of time. I would definitely check the type of connection that is in place, as this may be the problem.

Answer:
We do not carry any multi-sided fireplace inserts. However, you may be interested in a ventless see-thru log set which will provide good supplemental heat. Please reply and let us know what kind of fuel you would use for a gas log set (natural gas or propane), as well has how you want to control the unit (on/off remote, variable flame remote, wall switch or manual.) We will be happy to offer some recommendations.By Anita from USA on November 9, 2012

Answer:
We have a couple of options for your situation. First, if you have the model and manufacturer of your unit, we can check availability for a replacement panel for your unit. If you cannot get that information, we do have some universal replacement refractory panels for wood-burning fireplaces.Please see the following links:
(One 24"h x 28"w Panel) Universal Fireplace Refractory Panels 1
(Two 24" h x 40"w Panels)Universal Fireplace Refractory Panels 2
These panels are about 3/4" thick and can be cut down to the size you need with a masonry blade.
Please let us know if you have any additional questions.

By Staff on November 9, 2012
Answer:
The Osburn 2400 must be installed into a masonry opening and cannot be used in any other way. Your only other option would be to install a zero-clearance, high efficiency fireplace. These are a double walled type of appliance that function much like a wood stove. One of our most popular sellers can be seen here: Fireplace.In regards to the second part of your question, this unit uses a 6" chimney system. I cannot recommend converting it to a larger chimney, due to the high efficiency nature of the fireplace. Larger chimneys will often cause these units to perform poorly and create excessive amounts of soot and creosote.

Answer:
It is certainly possible to install a wood burning insert in some manufactured boxes, but I simply cannot say for sure with your model of Marco. I was unable to find a manual for this unit, so I am unable to verify. I do not recommend it without the manufacturer saying so, as the box can overheat or be damaged otherwise. Do you have any original literature for the box? If so, it should cover the use of inserts.By Arlander from Plymouth, NC on January 27, 2013
By Collin C. - NFI Master Hearth Professional on January 28, 2013
Answer:
Because fireplace inserts do not have a conventional ash pan, they must be cleaned by using an ash rake or shovel to pull ashes to the door opening. The ashes can then be scooped into an ash bucket or removed with an approved ash vacuum. The chimney liner should be brushed from the top down and the baffles removed in the insert prior to this process. This will ensure that all material is removed and can be swept from the firebox.- Napoleon Deluxe EPA Wood Burning Fireplace Insert Complete Package Deal
