Planning to renovate your home this summer or fall, and interested in adding a fireplace? Home improvement projects can be overwhelming, but with advanced planning, you can reduce stress while staying on both budget and schedule. At Energy Savers, we specialize in wood, gas, electric and pellet stoves, fireplaces, inserts, brick and veneered stone, mantels and surrounds, and outdoor fireplaces and firepits.
If you are looking to add a new heat source to your home (or upgrade an old one) we are your one-stop shop. With over 40 years of experience, we are old pros when it comes to adding warmth and comfort to your home. When adding a new heat source from Lopi® or Fireplace X® to your home, there are a few things you will need to consider…
Is it possible?
It’s difficult to imagine a situation where it would be entirely impossible to add a fireplace or stove of some sort to your home. The most important aspects to consider are building codes that could impact specifications such as chimney height, construction, and emission limits.
How much will it cost?
While Lopi® or Fireplace X® fireplaces, inserts, and gas stoves vary in initial price, one thing is certain—you will save money on energy costs by adding an efficient heat source to your home. According to the U.S. Department of Energy, natural gas is the least expensive utility-supplied heating fuel.
Where will it go?
To maximize your return on investment, we recommend adding a fireplace or heat source to your most-used room, typically the family room or living room. However, a fireplace can add luxury and warmth to more “unconventional” spaces as well—such as your bathroom, master bedroom, or even the kitchen.
When will I remodel?
Summer and fall are popular times to remodel due to the mild weather and ability to enjoy the outdoors while a home remodeling project is taking place. We recommend ordering your fireplace or heat source well in advance to avoid backorders during busy season.
