Gas insert details our Orwin Manor team gets right
What our Orwin Manor team explains at every gas insert inspection.
Full-length intake or a shorter one
Some insert vent kits let the intake liner stop partway and draw air from the chimney space. Others run the intake all the way to the cap. The Supreme manual describes both and notes that, depending on how clean the chimney is, a full-length intake lessens the chance of fouling the flame sensor.
The same manual says the full-length arrangement may perform better, with less cold-air infiltration, in houses with negative pressure. We explain both options for your chimney and recommend the one that suits its condition and your home.
Natural gas or propane, matched to the insert
An insert is built for one gas type, and its rating plate says which. Natural gas and propane versions use different orifices and run at different pressures, so the insert has to match the fuel your home actually has.
We confirm the fuel at the inspection. If there is no gas at the fireplace yet, we note where the nearest supply is and which fuel is available, then help you choose a model built for it.
Going back to wood later
Undoing an insert conversion takes more than lifting the insert out. The conversion notice says the fireplace cannot be used for burning wood or solid fuels unless all original parts have been replaced and the fireplace is re-approved by the authority having jurisdiction.
That means removing the insert and its liners, restoring the damper and having the fireplace and chimney checked before any wood fire. If you might want a real wood fire again one day, tell us before the conversion so we can talk it through.
A film on the glass after the first fires
A white or cloudy film on the glass after the first few hours is normal. The owner's manual explains it as part of the curing of the paint and logs, and says the glass should be cleaned within three to four hours of the initial burn, sometimes with a non-abrasive gas fireplace glass cleaner.
Left too long, that film can bake on. We show you how to remove the glass assembly safely, which cleaner to use and when, so the view stays clear.

Your gas insert questions, Orwin Manor edition
Answers from the family-owned team that fits gas inserts in Orwin Manor.
Will you fit an insert I already purchased?
Gladly, as long as it suits your fireplace. Give us the model number when you call, and the installer reviews its opening and vent requirements before arriving. If it cannot fit, you find out while there is still time to return it.
Why does a new insert smell during the first fires?
The paint and materials cure during the first long burns, and that gives off a smell. Makers describe a break-in burn with the windows open and the fireplace on high for a few hours. The smell fades once the curing is done.
