What are the benefits of updating my old fireplace to a new gas model?
If you are used to having a wood-burning fireplace, you may be ready to not have to do the list of chores, such as bringing in firewood from the outside and sweeping up ashes after each fire, that is required with this type of fireplace. Ashbusters loves the low-maintenance, convenience and ease of using a gas fireplace, and we can show you our recommendations for our favorite models that are simple to operate and maintain. You will not have to worry about struggling to light a wood fire again since you can get a fire going in your new gas fireplace from your favorite chair by simply pushing a button on a remote control device to ignite the flames. Another great benefit of gas fireplaces is that they provide more comfortable and cozy warmth to your home without costing you more money.
