I just moved into a new house this summer. One thing that we are beginning to notice is that the room we seem to spend most of our time (LR) in runs a little cooler than the room the thermostat is in (FR). The LR has a brick fireplace which doesn't seem to throw off as much additional heat as we would like for the room. We have decided on an insert to add some additional warmth to the room, and the hope that we can scale back the natural gas heat throughout the house. We are hoping to make a decision this week.
we have the selection narrowed down to a few different inserts from different stores. what sort of things should we be looking for/at from the store we ultimately purchase from? Some questions...
-does a new insert with install generally include pellets? i've seen some mention receiving a free ton.
-what sort of questions can i ask to seem understand if that store provides quality service on the insert?
-how long on average does an installer guarantee the install? to me, it sounds like there are a lot of factors with each install, and would seem that an install may need to be tweaked to get it right.
-are the prices for the insert set in stone? can you generally haggle on price?
-and as a similar question, will stores take some money off if paid in cash?
thanks for the help!
