Frequently Asked Questions
Are freestanding fireplaces worth it?
Freestanding heaters—especially wood-burning models—are a great investment for homeowners seeking both warmth and ambiance. They offer excellent heating efficiency and can heat large spaces more effectively than many traditional built-in fireplaces, especially in colder climates. With proper placement, they can serve as a powerful zone-heating solution, reducing the need for central heat and lowering utility bills. They're also popular in rural and off-grid homes due to their independence from electricity or gas.
Can I put a freestanding wood stove in a fireplace?
A freestanding wood stove can be installed in an existing stone fireplace if space, flueing, and clearance requirements are met. However, this setup usually requires adapting the chimney with a proper stainless steel liner to ensure safe and efficient flue for the stove. This liner helps maintain draft performance and protects the original masonry from creosote buildup and heat damage. Always have the chimney inspected before any installation to check for structural integrity and compliance.
How long should a freestanding stove last?
The longevity of a stove also depends on how often it’s used and the type of wood burned. Burning seasoned hardwood and avoiding overfiring or smoldering fires will protect the internal components and prevent creosote buildup, which is a major cause of premature wear. Frequent overfiring can warp steel or crack cast iron, while using wet or resinous wood accelerates soot and creosote accumulation. Staying within recommended burn temperatures helps preserve the firebox and flue system.
