A gas fire is a highly efficient way to heat your home either with or without a chimney. For most people in the UK a gas fire is 50% cheaper than an electric one. Before choosing your fire you would first need see whether you’d need a conventional flue for a house with a chimney or a balanced flue for a house without, the different types of gas fires include:
*High efficiency open fronted
*Out set high efficiency
*Radiant Out set
*Glass fronted high efficiency
*Balance flue high efficiency
*flueless
Once the type of fire has been chosen, you will then have to choose a slide control, remote control or manual option and then probably the most enjoyable bit of all deciding on the decorative parts of the fire, the trim, the fret and the colour.
