Who makes the best gas fireplace inserts?

too add to LP usage, its also very corrosive, its rusts everything, and thermocouples last half as long as NG units.

Yeah, that's what I heard from my insert dealer. Regular maintenance seems more important with LP fired inserts.

Very good thread. Thanks to all that helped out! I'm staying away from Lennox and going searching!

I'm deciding on a direct vent gas fireplace and am narrowed it to several companies. I have read quite a few postings and I want to know if I'm in the right "neighborhood" on a quality product. Here are 4 that I have thought about:
1. Harman
2. Mendota
3. Regency
4. Napoleon.
Any and all comments are welcomed.

I just found out that an insert is more suitable. The wife wants a large glass area and KozyHeat Jackson xxl has the largest glass area. Any comments on this model?

Beware of Kozy Heat. I have a Kozy Heat zero clearance gas fireplace that is not working, the unit will soot up after 1 hour or so. After repeated calls to the dealer and manufacturer they have no clue what is wrong with the unit.

If it is sooting it is due to a venting problem or the logs not in like the Manufacture specs
