Benefits of Gas Fireplaces Sydney
Gas fireplaces Sydney have so many amazing benefits, particularly their energy efficiency. Nobody likes being hit with a huge energy bill. Depending on current gas prices and the size of the room you’re heating, the cost of running a gas fireplace can vary between 50c and $1.60 per hour. While a traditional wood-burning fireplace uses no electricity or gas, you have the expense of buying firewood which can vary depending on the local supply. You’re at the mercy of firewood vendors, plus you’ve got the hassle of stocking, cutting and storing the wood, which all takes time. Overall, this product is far more cost-effective.
Our products are also extremely easy to use. With the flick of a switch, you can start heating your home. No trudging out to the wood pile in the cold, struggling to light the fire and no mess to clean up around the fireplace. It doesn’t get much easier than that.
One of our favourite advantages is more visual. With so many stunning designs to choose from, designer gas fireplaces Sydney can be 1, 2 or 3-sided, meaning they can be installed in almost any wall cavity to create a unique decorative effect in your home.
Factors To Consider When Buying a Gas Fireplace
Purchasing this product in Sydney is an investment in your home. So, it’s important to make an informed choice. One of the major considerations is ensuring you get a gas fireplace that’s powerful enough to heat your desired space. Another, of course, is energy efficiency.
You’ll also need to think about where you want to install your gas fireplace. Lopi has a range of options to make installation possible almost anywhere, giving you the perfect blend of functionality and decorative charm. However, there are different installation methods required for different homes, so it’s worth speaking to our experienced team about your heating options. We’ll make sure you get the best value, the right style for your home, and a gas fireplace that comfortably heats your living areas.
Gas Fireplace Maintenance Tips
One of the often-forgotten benefits is the fact they are incredibly low maintenance. However, like all appliances, there are ways to keep your gas fireplace in good working order.
Regular servicing: Have your fireplace serviced at least every 2 years to ensure everything is working efficiently and safely.
Fireplace safety: All types of heaters get hot when in use. This means that children and pets should be kept away at all times. You can install a free-standing screen around your unit for maximum protection.
Flammable materials: Even though there is no open flame in a gas fireplace, they still get hot. As such, you should keep all flammable materials away from the unit.
Chimney cleaning: Although much cleaner than a wood-burning heater, still use a chimney or flue. So, these will need to be checked and cleaned every so often to avoid animal nests or other debris becoming a fire hazard.
