Yes, buy your fireplace insert in the spring, the stove business is slow this time of the year, right? I do admit I don't see any "sales", are there ever sales on stoves/inserts? I"d think the factory would offer a spring time sale to boost sales, level out demand.
I am close to signing a contract for the installation of a Quadrafire 3100-I, but must say for only a few hundred more I could go for the 4100-I which has a larger fire box, and more viewing glass. The big bay-door on the 4100 does raise some concern in my mind, but I"m sure Quadrafire knows how to make it fit airtight, over the long term (more than 10 years). The other problem with picking the 4100-I is all i have is pictures, I haven't found one on the floor to look at.
Any advice/comments?
