Gas Fireplace Inserts

A gas fireplace insert converts your existing wood-burning fireplace to a clean, efficient, easy-to-use gas unit. Direct Air Systems installs Napoleon, Marquis, and Regency gas fireplace inserts across Toronto, Markham, Bolton, and the GTA — with TSSA-licensed gas fitters handling all gas connections to Ontario code.

What Is a Gas Fireplace Insert?

A gas fireplace insert is a self-contained gas firebox designed to fit into the opening of an existing masonry or factory-built wood-burning fireplace. The insert slides into the existing firebox opening, connects to a gas line, and vents through a liner that runs up your existing chimney. The result is a clean, efficient gas fireplace that looks custom-built into your existing surround and mantel.

Benefits of a Gas Fireplace Insert

• Keeps your existing mantel and surround — the insert fits inside your existing firebox, so your existing tile, stone, or wood surround remains intact.
• Dramatically more efficient than wood — open wood-burning fireplaces are typically only 10–15% efficient. A gas insert delivers 65–85%+ efficiency with 15,000–30,000+ BTU of usable heat.
• No more wood — no ordering, stacking, or carrying firewood. Gas flame on demand with a wall switch or remote.
• Cleaner air — gas inserts produce no particulate emissions inside the home, making them suitable for air-quality-sensitive households.
