What is the best type of wood to burn in a fireplace?

This ensures safety and the best heat output for your Sunnyvale home.

How do wood stove inserts compare to traditional fireplaces?

Wood stove inserts are designed to fit inside an existing fireplace opening. They are much more efficient than open fireplaces. Inserts have sealed doors and controlled airflow, directing more heat into your home. Traditional fireplaces can lose a lot of heat up the chimney. If you want to maximize warmth and efficiency, an insert is usually a better choice. Pros can help you find the right insert for your Sunnyvale setup.
