I keep a propane fireplace just for back-up heat. It is ugly as well but luckily not a complete eyesore that drives me crazy.
Thanks!
Our gas fireplace wasn't ugly, in fact it was very nicely done. The problem was...I just hated it, because it wasn't real. And, I was never able to get over that.
The fireplace we put in is exquisitely efficient, and it just about roasted me out of the house last night, and that was without the fan even on. Turn the fan on and it heats the entire upstairs to the point you have to open a window in about 5-7 minutes. When I looked this morning, I got 100% burn, not one wood/charcoal chunk left. Nothing but ash.
