When I moved into my South Bend condo I figured the dwelling fireplace would do the trick.
I thought there was something romantic about a wood burning fireplace.
I was honestly happy to chop wood, store it and have that smell around the house, but turns out the wood burns really fast and it takes a ton of wood to heat an entire home. It was constant work, but all Summer long I was toiling to create a big stockpile in order to heat my condo for the winter. It just wasn’t relaxing enough. IN can get afternoons of ice, cold, and below chilly rapidly changing temperatures. There also can be months of chilly too, then so the wood burning fireplace ended up being detached. It took up space and could not get its job done. I hated cutting wood by the end of it too. I ended up contacting a South Bend Heating & A/C dealer and asking about a gas fireplace. This was a much better solution; Getting gas was way easier. Any complications with the system I could call an IN heating repair dealer. It was quick, easy, and I had heating whenever I wanted it. The fireplace looked way more attractive than a wood burning one too. I had a gorgeous wood mantle and a marble front to it. I really like that I upgraded this. In South Bend you can’t really take a chance on heating… You have to have a game plan unless it gets super cold, then changing from a wood burning to a gas model was simple, but just call your local South Bend heating dealer and get it done.
