Why electric inserts

Plug-in flames for a firebox you never use

If your fireplace sits cold because wood is work and gas isn't run to it, an electric insert is the shortcut: a realistic flame in the opening you already have, with no venting and no gas line.

Run the flame year-round with the heat off, or switch the heater on and take the chill out of the room on a winter night.

You can choose from Napoleon and Ambiance, sized to your opening and installed cleanly by our own crew.

What you get

Everything handled, start to finish

No gas line, no venting

Electric means the simplest install in the lineup, and many models need little more than an outlet.

Flame with or without heat

Enjoy the look in July and add the warmth in January, because the flame and the heater run separately.

Fits the opening you have

Inserts are sized for existing fireboxes, so the fireplace keeps its place in the room.

Clean, simple installation

Our own crew fits and finishes it, with no subcontractors and no construction mess.

“The installation went super-smoothly, great job by all. We’ve had no issues with the fireplace, it looks great on or off. My wife and I agree this fireplace is one of the best things we ever did in terms of an upgrade.”

Read the full review

We purchased a Kozy Heat Nordic fireplace insert from Fireplace & Bar-B-Q Center in March 2023, so going on 2 years since it was installed. Per Jonathan's suggestion in Nov. 2022, we waited until Kozy Heat released the Nordik with the SIT gas control valve with ProFlame remote. So glad we waited, as the SIT system with the remote control is amazing. We use the auto-temp option in the winter, the fireplace maintains the room temperature just as we like it. So thankful to Johnathon for the recommendation to wait, he didn't have to do that. Just a quick note to express our appreciation for the Fireplace Center team, the fireplace has been amazing and we get repeated comments “are those real logs?” The Nordik is fantastic, puts out some good heat and the internal fan is very quiet. The installation went super-smoothly, great job by all. We’ve had no issues with the fireplace, it looks great on or off. My wife and I agree this fireplace is one of the best things we ever did in terms of an upgrade. The wood-burning fireplace would just suck the heat out of the room but the Kozy Heat unit is actually a second furnace, super nice on those cold winter days. And being a sealed unit there are zero combustion fumes to enter the home (i.e., carbon monoxide, etc.). In the summer we use the lighting features without flames, looks amazing. Bottom line, super happy with the Fireplace Center team and also with the Kozy Heat Nordik fireplace.

What a pleasant purchase experience. Johnathan answered all the questions we asked, Carrie helped us with financing, the installer (whose name I did not capture unfortunately) was competent, thorough, pleasant and thoroughly cleaned up behind himself. Easy peasy and we are looking forward to using our new ventless fireplace.

I was reminded a few weeks ago why we have been customers for almost 30 years. High winds tipped over our new Broil King grill. I called the store and was set an appointment for service. Matthew came to our house with all the parts needed to fix and at a reasonable price ( act of nature, not warranty) Try getting that with your big box store grill! Money well spent.

“We have been a customer of Fireplace & Bar-B-Q for 20 years and still have the same Fire Magic grill… Jonathan was kind enough to come by and provide parts and service to get it going. I did not ask him to.”

Read the full review

We have been a customer of Fireplace & Bar-B-Q for 20 years and still have the same Fire Magic grill. Recently, the propane pressure regulator became somewhat non-responsive causing little gas flow to the burners. Because it was late on Friday and I planned on using the grill on Saturday, Jonathan was kind enough to come by and provide parts and service to get it going. I did not ask him to. However, he called me Saturday and offered to come by and see what was needed to get it working. Great Service and I learned about how to care for the Burners. Call them as they are very friendly, accommodating and have excellent products.

“I called and sent some pictures to Mr. Kelly who sent me a PDF of the manual and walked me through starting the logs. He communicated everything very articulately and within minutes it was up and running. All of this at no charge.”

These guys are fantastic. They represent what a small, local business is in my mind. Great service and friendly, patient interactions. My family had just moved into a new house with a gas fireplace, but the manual had been lost and we had never used gas logs before. I called and sent some pictures to Mr. Kelly who sent me a PDF of the manual and walked me through starting the logs. He communicated everything very articulately and within minutes it was up and running. All of this at no charge. The best businesses are places that know a positive interaction with customers is far and away more important than nickel and diming. This is that sort of business.

Thank you so much for the positive review. Super excited that your logs are up and running. Remember the page about cleaning the ODS pilot...that needs to be done periodically.

“My husband and I had differing opinions about filling the full bottom of the fireplace with the lava rocks… When asking for a small bag and sharing the shinnanigans that led me to this request (differing opinions), they made me a small bag for free.”

Read the full review

We purchased and had installed a large ventless gas unit in early 2020 (which we love and use often! So it should have a separate 5 star review). However, these 5 stars are for a more recent experience. My husband and I had differing opinions about filling the full bottom of the fireplace with the lava rocks. I wasn't home during the install, so his opinion won. 11 months later, I happen to be in the area and swung by Fireplace & Bar-BQ Center to buy a small bag to fill in the rest of the fireplace 🙂. (victory will be mine!) But, they only had large bags... When the large bag came out, it was about 4x what we needed... When asking for a small bag and sharing the shinnanigans that led me to this request (differing opinions), they made me a small bag for free.

Thanks for the 5 Stars!!!

Very helpful staff and knowledgeable. Just purchased a new house with a fire pit had some questions about some sounds it was making. I needed to also pick up additional lava rock. The gentleman in the store was very helpful and provide some guidance for my noise issue that didn’t cost me anything. Then helped load the lava rock into the car. Would return and recommend

Plain answers to what folks ask us most. Tap any question to read more.

See all questions & answers

If you still have a question, call 913-383-2286.

Do electric inserts put out real heat?
Yes, most include a heater that warms the room like a space heater, and the flame runs with or without it.
Does an electric insert just plug in?
Many models run on a standard outlet; larger heaters may want a dedicated circuit. We sort that out before anything is ordered.
How much does an electric insert cost installed?
It's the most budget-friendly way to bring a dead firebox back to life, and every unit on this page prices itself. Open one and see a real ballpark in about a minute.
