How to Make Your Wood Fireplace Way Less Work

There’s a lot to love about a wood-burning fireplace. There’s the charm and nostalgia. There’s coziness. The smell of actual firewood doing its thing. But also: the ash and soot. The chimney cleanings. Waiting for the fire to start and stop. But you can enjoy the look and feel of that cozy fire without any of the hassle when you convert from wood to gas. A gas fireplace insert fits directly inside your existing fireplace, providing an easier way to use and love your fireplace again.

The “Is that Gas?” Gas Insert

Sometimes, the difference between wood and gas looks obvious or not as natural as you’d hope. But the newest insert from Heat & Glo is different: the new SupremeX gas fireplace insert is designed for people who want the warmth and visual payoff of a wood fire – at the touch of a button – and without losing any of the vibe of a classic fire.

Made for the Fireplace Already in Your Home 

The flames move with intention, curling around hand-painted logs, not just floating above them. Plus, the flames and logs sit on top of a raised burner system (patent-pending) that offers even more of a dynamic, layered look. The exclusive LED ember bed gives off the same low, smoldering glow as the real thing. Nothing flickers in a weirdly symmetrical way. And if you didn’t already know it was gas, you might not guess. SupremeX is a retrofit insert, which means it’s made to slide into your existing wood-burning fireplace. No big remodel. No extra framing. Just a cleaner, more efficient fire that actually gets used. (Because a fireplace isn’t much of a focal point if it never gets lit.)

Details that Matter

  • Heats more efficiently.  With adjustable settings and zoned warmth you can actually control.
  • Fits your space. Designed to work with the fireplace you’ve already got.
  • Won’t make a mess. No ash, no smoke, no Sunday-night cleanups.
  • Quickly installed by pros. Installation is easy and is typically done in a couple of days.
