Experience with wall mount vent-less gas fireplace ?? Opinons
+3
I hope to soon start remodel of master bedroom in my house, just finished bath. I'm really doing nothing more than new paint color, comforter, curtains and lampshades. The biggest change will be addition of a fireplace, mounted about 5 to 6 feet high on one of the walls. Anyone had experience with wall mount gas fireplaces? It may not happen soon as I want a gas stove for kitchen and gas logs for living room. I will probably wait to have gas lines run all at one time.

I would reach out to Houzz but I would not mount the fireplace.Heat rises from the bottom.

We added a ventless gas fireplace last year. It works very well, it puts out a lot of heat. Check with your building codes, we are not allowed to put ventless in bedrooms.

Think about a direct vent fireplace. We have a ventless in our front room it is worst smell it's awful. I have friends that have the same issues. The direct vent can be placed on the outside wall and vented out the wall. My cousin has two, one in the great room and one in her bedroom it's great. I hope we can change ours over to direct vent.

We have had two for years and have been pleased. Love the vent-free fireplace - so what if the ceiling needs to be painted still would not give up the fireplace. No odors.

I've had three different ones. One was cans that you light sort of like sterno, one that was electric that mounted to the wall ( I was thinking I could put it into the wall but that wasn't possible) and then we have a gas fireplace with chimney that you have to buy propane for from an outside company. All three have had its pros and cons. The best one is the one with the propane tank for actually giving off heat ( but expensive to fill the tank )The other two were more for looks and didn't give off much heat ( as much as a candle).
