Update Your Fireplace in an Afternoon
An electric insert is the easiest fireplace upgrade money can buy. No gas line to run. No chimney liner to install. No venting through walls. The unit slides into your existing fireplace opening, plugs into a standard outlet (or hardwires for cleaner installs), and runs immediately.
For Indianapolis homeowners with an old masonry fireplace they don't use much, an electric insert turns an unused architectural feature back into a usable focal point. Modern LED-flame technology—particularly from Modern Flames and Dimplex—produces flame patterns that are honestly hard to distinguish from real gas at a glance. And because the flame can run with or without heat, the insert works year-round as ambiance.
We carry electric inserts from Modern Flames, Dimplex, Fireplace X, and DaVinci. Most installs finish the same day, with no exterior work required.
Why Electric for an Insert Upgrade
Lowest Install Cost
No gas line, no chimney liner, no venting. Significantly cheaper than gas.
Same-Day Install
Most electric insert installs finish in a single afternoon.
Year-Round Ambiance
Run flames without heat in summer; add heat in winter.
No Safety Prerequisites
No combustion = no chimney inspection prerequisites or gas safety checks.
