Fireplaces? We now have a wood fireplace and propane are considering changing, (just for convenience), but we have to be disappointed and miss the atmosphere and the smell and crackle of wood?
I do not know about you, but I would! I love a fireplace and can not imagine a winter night, without one. In fact, I love him so much that I would never own a home without any.
I would. I even have a fireplace in my room.
Checkout the recent outbreaks of premium gas, they crackle, but did not smell.
Ultimately, you have to decide whether you prefer the convenience of gas in the rustic charm of real wood.
PS gas is cheaper.
We had wood and had to change. Our daughter was allergic to wood smoke. I do miss the smell of wood. I do not miss the mess of wood or having to cut wood. They make some beautiful fireplaces propane Search newspaper. They are beautiful. So, if the convenience to fit your lifestyle I would change.
Wood is still much more expensive than the gas to burn. If you live in a big wooden town cost a little more to buy, but if you cut yourself you have time to do so, but not expensive. I suggest going to a sawmill and asking for scraps. they pretty much give that kind of thing for a low or no cost. i heat with nothing but wood in my house and do it as long as my back can handle it.I heat my home from November through April for $ 300 a fight. Most people who buy "pretty wood" are funny to me. As it burns well what difference does it make what he looks like as long as its good wood. You might also consider a pellet stove or corn stove, they have rated much higher than a wood stove btu normal and you still get the warm wood stove. i freeze every time I go home with someone else's gas, even though I know its temperature even in the house
