One of the obvious reasons is that there is no need to clean a fireplace when an electric fireplace insert is used. After all, there is no burning wood and there are no ashes or embers. Of course, in addition to the cleaning required for a traditional fireplace there is also a need for purchasing firewood and other items. Of course, with an electric fireplace insert there is no need to shell out money for these additional, ancillary items. As such, electric fireplace inserts can prove to be very cost effective. So, there is no reason to ignore the value of electric fireplace inserts if you already own a traditional fireplace.

Ventless gas logs are designed to be used indoors and have several safety features that make them safe inside your home. Manufacturers of ventless gas logs have a limit to the amount of BTU’s burned which limits the size of most unvented gas log burners to 30". The size of a firebox that would comfortably hold a 30" gas burner is 42" to 48" which is still a large fireplace. A standing pilot assembly stays lit and heat is tracked with a thermocouple. If the flames go out for any reason, the thermocouple cools and gas stops at the valve. Oxygen depletion sensors are also attached to the gas valve to ensure the flames do not burn up so much oxygen in the house that unsafe conditions are created.
