For those who longs for the cosy warmness of a real fireplace but cannot own a traditional fireplace with an installed chimney, you could consider the burner fireplace. This type of fireplace comes in three varieties. You can find vent-free, direct vent and traditional vent. Traditional vent is the least common type of burner fireplace because it is made to work with your existing chimney. If you have a chimney, you are probably going to use the fireplace that is already there or have a masonry fireplace constructed. Tags: burner fireplace, fireplaces, fireplace screens
