Is there any gas fireplace insert that can be installed without a chimney (venting through plywood back wall)?
No, all of our direct vent gas fireplace inserts require venting vertically to the top of the existing chimney.

Chrisfrom asked:
Is it still true there are no through the wall venting gas inserts? and why?
Since inserts are installed inside of a pre-existing fireplace, the vents usually travel up the existing chimney. That being the case, a lot of the units are not designed to vent horizontally. The only manufacturer that I can think of that has some inserts that can vent in this manner would be Valor Fireplaces.

Gina W.from goldendale wa asked:
What does direct vent mean? I am purchasing a home with a gas insert put into the existing old fireplace. It has a pipe going thru the chimney to the roof but it looks outdated and tired
Direct vent means the insert would have 2 flexible liners in the chimney that attach to a cap that draws its intake air from outside and exhausts to the outside. Direct vent inserts have a gasketed pane of glass to keep room air separated from the combustion chamber of the insert. If your existing insert has only one liner in the original chimney, it sounds like it may be a B-vent insert.

I need to replace a gas insert. The current unit is 39" x 34.5" x 16.25". Can I purchase a smaller unit?
As long as you follow the "Minimum fireplace requirements" section of the insert you are interested in, you can always go smaller than those dimensions, just not larger.

In most cases, a hearth is not required for a gas fireplace insert. A hearth would indeed be required for a wood-burning fireplace insert. We recommend checking the requirements of a particular model before proceeding.

We will be replacing a gas fireplace insert with a remote. The gas line is there and the electric. Will it be a difficult job to do?
Replacing a remote control on a gas fireplace is typically fairly simple and can be done by a homeowner. The replacement remote control you purchase should include installation instructions to walk you through the process.

Scottfrom Norfolk Va asked:
How important is a blower for a direct vent gas insert in a mild climate? Can blowers be installed on any direct vent gas insert or is it model-specific?
Blowers do not increase the heat output of a hearth appliance, they simply distribute the produced heat more quickly and evenly. Without one, the fireplace would heat like a large space heater or radiator. While most inserts (appliances designed to be placed inside already existing fireplaces) have blowers as a standard feature, fireplaces may or may not have available blowers depending on the model.

Stevefrom Winchester, VA asked:
What is the difference between vented and vent free propane gas fireplace inserts?
Vented fireplace inserts will generally be sealed with a pane of glass and use a pair of 3 or 4 inch liners that are routed up the chimney. One liner will pull combustion air from the outdoors, while the other will vent exhaust gases. The vented systems do not effect air quality. Vent free units are completely sealed from the chimney and vent all heat into the room. The are carefully built to avoid off gassing of dangerous byproducts into the room, but consideration must be made on room size and location.

Do you know what a gas fireplace insert is? Gas fireplace inserts fit into existing fireplaces and typically change the fuel type to suit your new needs. A gas insert fireplace is a more affordable, painless option with relatively quick installation instead of completely redoing a fireplace and a chimney for a vented gas fireplace insert. Gas stove inserts can even upgrade a "normal" fireplace to look like a gas stove!
