  • A gas fireplace is typically installed in new builds or renovations where no existing fireplace or chimney is present. It’s a complete, self-contained unit that creates a beautiful focal point and can be installed just about anywhere with proper venting. A gas insert, on the other hand, is designed to fit inside an existing wood-burning fireplace. Inserts are ideal for converting an old, inefficient wood fireplace into a clean-burning, easy-to-use gas unit. The main difference? Fireplaces are built from scratch — inserts retrofit what’s already there.

    🔧 Special Note:
    Gas inserts are only compatible with traditional masonry wood-burning fireplaces. If your existing fireplace is a factory-built wood fireplace (also known as a “zero-clearance” unit with a metal firebox), a gas insert cannot be installed. In those cases, we’ll help you explore other gas fireplace options that are safe and code-compliant for your setup.

At Apex Fireplaces, we offer trusted Canadian and North American brands known for safety and performance.

Our technicians are trained in both sales and installation, ensuring a seamless experience from selection to setup.
