Gas Fires: 3 things to consider before buying
When choosing a gas fire, it's important to think about both efficiency and heat output. Efficiency refers to how well a gas fire converts fuel into heat, while heat output is the actual warmth it provides. Look for models with high efficiency ratings and consider the size of your room to ensure adequate heat output.
Your safety is paramount when using gas fires. Ensure that the model you choose includes essential safety features like an oxygen depletion sensor, which automatically turns off the gas if oxygen levels fall too low, and a flame failure device, which cuts off the gas supply if the flame goes out. These features can provide peace of mind and help prevent accidents.
Before purchasing, evaluate the installation requirements of different gas fires. Some models may require professional installation or specific venting systems, while others might be more straightforward to install. Consider whether you have existing vents or need to make modifications, as this can affect both the cost and complexity of setting up your new gas fire.
