If you are considering getting a insert be sure to select something that is custom fitted to ensure the largest viewing aperture of your fire as to not lose any of the important ambiance your hearth provides your home. Many cheap or universal fireplace inserts have very large metal flashing on the boarders and small glass windows in there doors. Another important feature in a quality insert is also the surface area in its heat exchanger to capture and blow heated air out and into your home. Some basic fireplace inserts offer no heat exchanger or blower to get the energy of the firewood moved from the fireplace throughout your home.

Adding a lift out ashtray is another convenient option to add to improve the function of your fireplace because it can significantly simplify the ash removal and cleaning up after your fires. If it is easier to keep the combustion pocket clean it is more likely the cleaning will be done regularly. Improving combustion reduces unburned smoke wood gas heat energy loss from going up the chimney.

A fireback is a ancient technology to use the heat of the fire to illuminate your room with heat using FAR far infrared radiation using a metal plate in the back of the firebox. This effect is similar to how a flat screen TV can illuminate a dark room with a white screen radiating its light, but in this case it is invisible heat being radiated. On a tubular fireplace grate the fireback can act as the same as a FAR infrared panel emitter while at the same time helping to direct the flame along the tubes where the heat can best be conducted into the homes air being circulated through its tubes.

If maximum heat is not your primary goal and your spouse is apposed to or anyone in the home is super sensitive to the low background hum of a fan that is forcing large volumes of heat into your home, fanless heat exchangers are an option to consider. Though the use of natural convection is not near as effective as a blower, the flow of heated air upward out the tubes of a fanless tubular log grate can be a compromise between effectiveness and personal aesthetic preference.
