The Top 10 Benefits of Gas Fires & Stoves for Your Home
Posted in in Showroom
Whether you’re looking to buy a gas fire or stove, or you’re trying to decide what sort of fuel fireplace is right for your home, here are some incredible benefits that we love about gas fires…
- Gas stoves and fires are really easy to use!
Unlike wood burning stoves, you won’t have to build a fire with logs every time you want a bit of extra heat in your space. Gas fires can be operated with the simple flick of a switch (and many even come with remote controls – so you won’t even have to get up!) - Gas stoves and fires are quick to use and quick to get warm!
As a gas stove is so easy to use, you’re more likely to use it whenever you want to. After you’ve flicked a switch your gas stove will immediately start heating your space – fast! While wood and electric stoves take a little while to heat up, gas stoves will really give you that heat as soon as you need it. This makes them fantastic for cold winter nights. - Gas stoves and fires have adjustable heat settings!
Gas fires have heat levels so that you can get the level of warmth in a room that suits you. Unlike wood stoves, where you mostly just have to handle the heat level you get, gas stoves allow you to change the heat whenever you like. This allows you to not waste energy over-heating your space. - Gas stoves and fires stay hot!
You won’t have to tend to a gas fire like you would a wood burning stove. They won’t need you to keep topping them up with fuel, like logs, to keep going. Once you’ve switched them on, they’ll stay at a consistent heat for as long as you need them to. Their heat will also drop faster than a wood stove, so you’ll have a hot room only when it suits you and no wasted energy after you’ve gone to bed! - Gas stoves and fires are easy to keep clean!
Without the logs and ash that come along with wood stoves, gas stoves are a breeze to maintain. You won’t have to sweep up after them every time and only require infrequent cleaning to stay in top condition. Gas fires are definitely the more convenient choice when it comes to keeping things tidy! - Gas stoves and fires are super safe!
Gas fires release no toxic fumes, no smoke, no flying sparks, and no open flames. This makes them a fantastic option if you’ve got small children or animals in your home that you might be worried about. If you’re concerned about the safety of your fireplace, gas is a great choice! - Gas stoves and fires are just as stylish as wood-burners!
If you’re concerned about the aesthetics of your fireplace, there are some fantastic gas stoves that could be easily mistaken for wood burners. Modern gas fireplaces with realistic logs and embers make fantastic imitations of their wood-burning counterparts without all the associated faff mentioned above! - Gas stoves and fires are easier to install than wood burners (and don’t require a chimney!)
A great benefit of gas fireplaces is that they don’t need a chimney so you can have one installed pretty much anywhere in your home. This makes them super versatile and far easier (and cheaper) to get fitted in your property! - Gas stoves and fires can save you money!
By only heating the space when you need it, gas stoves can save you money in the energy that would otherwise be wasted. Gas stoves are more efficient than wood and by switching off your central heating and using your gas fire to heat specific rooms in your home (the ones you use the most), you’ll save yourself energy money! - Gas fireplaces add value to your home!
Considering all the benefits above, a gas fireplace is a great investment if you’re looking to increase the value of your property. While gas installation is slightly more intricate than what you’d require for an electric stove, it will certainly be something attractive for future buyers!
