Q: Can you use Windex to clean gas fireplace glass?

• <div><p>You should not use Windex or any other ammonia-based glass cleaners when cleaning the glass doors or glass front panel of a gas fireplace. Instead, remove the glass and lay it on a soft surface, like a drop cloth or towel. Then clean it using a specialty fireplace glass cleaner purchased at a hardware store or online. If the glass is relatively clean, you can get away with a vinegar and water solution, but tougher stains will require a specialized cleaner. </p></div>

Q: How much more is house insurance with a wood stove?

• <div><p>Home insurance prices depend on where you live and the individual insurance company's policies. Some insurers charge a flat fee for fireplaces or wood-burning stoves, which is often a few hundred dollars per year. Other insurers base this fee on a percentage of your annual premium. You may want to check your current or prospective policy before beginning this project.</p></div>

Q: What is the most efficient type of wood stove?

• <div><p>Soapstone wood stoves hold onto heat the longest, which means you can burn less fuel and enjoy the warmth for longer. Additionally, catalytic wood stoves include a catalytic combustor that can reduce emissions and create a cleaner burn no matter what the stove is made of. Of course, the most efficient wood stoves also tend to be costlier up front&mdash;but they can still save you money in the long run. </p></div>

Q: Do they make ventless pellet stoves?

• <div><p>No, there are no ventless pellet stoves. Because pellet stoves burn wood pellets, they produce wood smoke&mdash;which contains carbon monoxide. This harmful substance needs to be vented out of your living area. That said, there are vent-free and <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/pros-cons-ventless-gas-fireplaces.htm">ventless fireplaces</a> that run on natural gas and propane. These offer the heating and ambiance of a fireplace without the need to vent thick and hazardous wood smoke.</p></div>

Q: Do gas fireplaces burn a lot of gas?

• <div><p>Modern gas fireplaces are relatively efficient and don't burn excessive amounts of gas, especially compared to older models. A gas fireplace might use between 10,000 to 40,000 BTUs per hour; the total amount of gas used depends on the fireplace's size, heat output, and how often it's in use. To help keep your running costs down, consider using a thermostat and turning off the fireplace when not needed to minimize gas consumption</p></div>

"This is the second time I've had Blue Hills perform similar work; on my house a few years ago prior to selling it and on the house we subsequently purchased after box vents started to leak. I was satisfied with both experiences. Although their estimate was a bit higher than some others, I wanted to make sure a quality job was performed, and I got the impression they could/would deliver just that. They completed my average-size ranch style house in a single day. Only time will tell if the work holds up, but I don't have any complaints to this point.
