Traditional Gas Fires supplied and fitted in derby
Traditional gas fires are a type of heating appliance that use gas as a fuel source to produce heat and create the visual effect of a traditional wood-burning fire.
These fires are designed to mimic the appearance and ambiance of a traditional fireplace while providing the convenience and efficiency of gas heating.
Here are some key features and considerations regarding traditional gas fires:
Design:
Traditional gas fires are available in various designs, including freestanding stoves, inset fires, and fireplace inserts. They typically feature a decorative surround made of materials like cast iron, steel, or stone, which adds to the traditional aesthetic.
Fuel Options:
Natural gas and propane are commonly used as fuel sources for traditional gas fires. Natural gas is supplied through a utility line, while propane requires a separate storage tank.
Log or Coal Effect:
Traditional gas fires often feature a log or coal effect set, which consists of ceramic or refractory logs or coals that are strategically arranged to resemble a real wood-burning fire. When the gas burner is ignited, the flames interact with the log or coal set, creating a realistic and visually appealing effect.
Heat Output:
Traditional gas fires provide heat output in the form of radiant heat and convected heat. Radiant heat is emitted directly from the fire and warms the objects and people in the immediate vicinity. Convected heat is produced by the movement of air around the fire and can help distribute warmth throughout the room.
Control Options:
Many traditional gas fires come with convenient control options, such as manual controls, remote controls, or even smart home integration, allowing you to adjust the flame height, heat output, and other settings easily.
Ventilation:
Proper ventilation is essential for the safe operation of gas fires. Traditional gas fires may require a chimney or flue system to vent the combustion gases, or they may be designed as balanced flue appliances that can be vented horizontally through an external wall.
