A cast iron wood insert with a wide view of the fire and a fan that carries the heat out. Quick Facts • Heating Capacity: 1,400–2,800 sq ft • Efficiency: 71% (higher heating value) • Maximum Log Size: 20″ • Burn Time: Approx. 5–7 hours • Fuel: Wood. • Controls: Start-up air control. • Fan: Included, variable speed. Who It’s For An open fireplace is lovely to look at and drafty to sit beside. A wood fire should warm you, not the chimney. You need a cast iron insert that turns the fireplace into a real heater and still shows off the flames. For a home that loves a traditional look, the Forge & Flame Montpelier II, crafted with Vermont Castings, fits right in. Choose it and the old fireplace becomes the warmest place in the house. What Makes It Special It is cast iron , in Classic Black or Majolica Brown, and the glass gives a large, open view of the fire. A variable-speed fan comes standard, so you can turn the airflow up on a cold night or down for a quiet one. A start-up air control helps a new fire catch. Logs up to 20 inches fit, and a full load runs roughly five to seven hours. Possible Downsides • A surround is required and sold separately. • The fan needs household power to run. • Burn times run about five to seven hours. If you want a traditional cast iron insert that truly heats the room, the Forge & Flame Montpelier II is the right decision. The hearth looks the way it always should have, and the room stays warm. Pick Classic Black or Majolica Brown, then a Mead II cast surround or a metal surround with black trim in two sizes, plus an extended trim plate, cast trim riser, hearth extension, outside air kit, or wood and non-combustible mantel shelves.

Flair 34 Insert - Arched Door (available in Canada only)

A soapstone-lined wood insert with an automated air control that slows the fire down. Quick Facts • Efficiency: 75% optimal; 66.07% (higher heating value). • Maximum Log Size: 22″ • Fuel: Wood. • Fan: Dual heat-activated, variable-speed blowers. Who It’s For An open fireplace sends most of its heat up the chimney. You need to turn that opening into a real heater. The Ambiance Flair 34 wood insert is for the homeowner who wants wood heat from the fireplace they already have. Leave it open and it keeps costing you heat every winter. What Makes It Special Flair inserts are lined with soapstone , which Ambiance says absorbs 15 percent more heat than firebrick and radiates heat five times more, for a steadier warmth. A patented automated air control can slow the fire to as low as 0.8 kg of wood per hour, which stretches the burn and evens out the heat. A perforated baffle brings in secondary air without tubes in the way of the view, and a sweeping cap on the baffle makes chimney cleaning easier. This one has the arched door. Possible Downsides • It is available in Canada only. • It is a wood fire. You load it, tend it, and carry out the ash. If you want real wood heat from the fireplace you already have, the Ambiance Flair 34 wood insert is the right decision. The room you used to pass through becomes the one everyone settles into. Choose the arched or rectangular door.
