Gas fireplaces offer a bit more flexibility than wood burning fireplaces when installing them into any room into the home. Instead of requiring a chimney to go out through the floor and roof of the home, you can obtain direct-vent fireplaces which use an exhaust vent on the exterior wall of your home and connects right to the fireplace. There are many different styles of gas direct-vent fireplaces available from Copperfield Chimney Supply , which provides quality hearth products for your entire home.
