Surrounded by lush greenery and streams at the intersection of I-190 and I-290, the vibrant City of Worcester is the arts and entertainment center of Central Massachusetts. This picturesque city is a harmonious blend of charming historic buildings and modern residences. As summer fades into the sunset and the vivid foliage colors of fall come to life, many Worcester residents enjoy the ambiance of a warm and cozy fireplace to take the chill out of the cooler evening air. At Horizon Chimney Services, we take pride in being the premier local provider of wood-burning and electric fireplaces, offering sustainable and affordable home heating solutions without the emissions associated with traditional hearths.
Traditional Masonry vs. Manufactured Fireplaces
If you live in an older New England home, it probably has a traditional wood-burning fireplace. These fireplaces are built brick by brick on-site and often feature an open hearth. While they are beautiful, these hearths are known for being inefficient, as much of the heat escapes through the chimney.
On the other hand, manufactured fireplaces are highly efficient, state-of-the-art units that are fully insulated and designed for superior heat transfer. They are constructed in a factory and assembled on-site, making them more affordable and easier to install. Additionally, manufactured fireplaces are available in a wide range of styles to suit any home, providing a cheap and stylish heating solution for your indoor or outdoor living space.
Wood-Burning Fireplace
Do you crave the authentic sound and aroma of a real wood fire? Then, a modern wood-burning fireplace is an excellent choice. Today's modern models are designed for high efficiency, converting more of the fuel into heat for your home while retaining the timeless classic of a natural, sustainable wood fire.
Electric Fireplace
Offering ultimate convenience without the upkeep, electric fireplaces are growing in popularity. They require no chimney or venting and can be installed virtually anywhere, providing instant heat and realistic flames. They are a low-maintenance, cost-effective, and appealing choice for any room.
What is a Fireplace Insert?
A fireplace insert is a self-contained, high-efficiency heating appliance that fits directly into the existing masonry firebox. The fire-resistant steel or iron combustion chamber instantly transforms an inefficient open hearth into a powerful source of heat. A blower motor forces warm air into your living space for primary, supplementary, or zone heating.
We offer two popular insert options:
- Wood-Burning Inserts allow you to continue enjoying the warmth of wood while dramatically increasing the heat output and efficiency of your fireplace, significantly reducing your heating bills.
- Pellet Inserts burn compressed wood pellets, offering an incredibly efficient, automated, and environmentally friendly heating solution. They feature convenient thermostat control, making them simple to operate for hours of continuous comfort.
