I posted a few years ago about a prefab fireplace that I'll have to completely remove. ( Prior thread ) I didn't know at the time that inserts NG fireplaces are not designed to go into prefab fireplaces, and my only option is to replace the prefab with a NG fireplace. Ok, no problem.

Here is the deal;

We don't need the fireplace to heat the house as some people use it for. It is mostly for ambience, with maybe a little bit of heat just to warm up the living room where the fireplace is. It has been suggested to avoid the huge expensive of putting in a fireplace, but instead just use gas logs.

Any thoughts on this? Or should I stick with the NG fireplace?
 
What is the manufacturer & model of your current wood burner? Some models DO allow the installation of a gas fireplace insert.
