Having a gas fireplace is a great luxury that not everyone can afford. They look great in the home and their basic function helps a lot to keep the room warm, however, there are principles to consider that involve an increase in monthly expenditure due to the fuel you use.
There are different types of fireplaces, some are diversified according to their aesthetic design, others according to their assembly or placement, but the basic or initial differentiation has to do with their mechanism or source of heat production, in this case, there are two types: natural gas and propane gas (LP).
NATURAL GAS. To install a fireplace that works based on natural gas, it is required to have a ready installation that feeds the firebox and this manages to work. This option is less expensive than propane gas and produces 5% more heat.
PROPANE GAS. These are an alternative to natural gas, especially when there is no way to connect to the gas line. This category relies on a gas cylinder to act as a conduit of fuel to the chimney to produce a fire with a simple ignition.
