Fast, convenient and cosy: the gas fire

What could be nicer than sitting cosily on the sofa and enjoying a beautiful view of the flames at the touch of a button? Gas fireplaces make it possible! Just press a button and you're ready to go.

Whether a free-standing stove or a built-in gas fireplace, both offer the same ease of use, depending on the manufacturer. With a gas fireplace, the gas fire and the heat output can be switched on and off directly. You have the fire and the heat under control at all times. There is no need to carry and store wood logs and therefore no storage space is required.

How does a gas fireplace work?

A gas stove and gas fireplace consist of a combustion chamber equipped with safety valves. The desired amount of gas is controlled by an electronic gas valve. Gas fireplaces can be easily controlled using a remote control or an app. The flame height, heat output and gas consumption can be set and regulated at any time. Some manufacturers offer programmable functions that change the flame height fully automatically at irregular intervals. This creates a realistic view of the flames and also reduces gas consumption. Switchable LED effects and programmable thermostat and timer functions offer even more convenience when operating the gas fire.

Depending on the size and model of the gas appliance, the firebox is equipped with one or more burners. Depending on the manufacturer, high-quality and realistic artificial logs made of ceramic, ceramic chips, filaments and glass stones ensure deceptively real embers and cosy glow effects on the firebox floor. Stones can also be used with flat burners. The firebox offers a real wow effect - even when the gas fire is not burning.

What does a gas fireplace cost?

Every room situation and every user requirement is different. That's why the costs vary depending on the size, model and version of the gas stove or gas fireplace, as well as its installation and flue gas connection. Our specialist partners offer advice on a gas fireplace that is tailored to your needs and living situation.

The cost of gas consumption depends on how the gas fireplace is used. A programming function that automatically changes the flame height reduces gas consumption and lowers the cost of gas consumption. We recommend annual maintenance of the gas stove and gas fireplace. This involves cleaning the gas fireplace and checking the technical components. This will ensure that you can enjoy your fire for many years to come.

To operate a gas stove or gas fireplace, it requires a connection to the natural gas pipe, to an external gas tank or to gas cylinders. The gas fireplace must be connected to a chimney. A pipe with two concentric ducts ensures smoke extraction and air supply. The gas fireplaces are low in soot and emissions and can be operated with natural gas, organic propane gas or propane gas, depending on the manufacturer.
