Why Buy a Lopi Fireplace Insert?
Most of us enjoy sitting around an open fireplace in our home. Sadly we now know the fireplace chimney
is actually drawing heat out of the home. In fact an open fireplace sends up to 80% of the fire’s heat up the
chimney and depletes warm air from surrounding rooms. A Lopi gas insert is more than five times as efficient
as an open fireplace and distributes warm air throughout the home. You can convert your wasteful masonry
or metal fireplace into a super-efficient hearth system that can heat your home for a fraction of what you’d
pay for electricity or oil.
Lopi gas inserts feature standard 130 CFM convection fans and an optional remote control or thermostat for
added home owner convenience and comfort.
1. Determine Your
Existing Fireplace
The first step is determining
whether you have a metal (zero
clearance) or masonry fireplace.
Your Lopi dealer can help you if
you need it. They can also provide
you with your new air intake and
exhaust systems. It is important
that this work is done by a hearth
professional.
2. Select Your Fireplace Insert
Next determine which insert best fits your needs
based on your heating requirements and
the size of your fireplace opening. We
offer DVS (Direct Vent Small) and DVL
(Direct Vent Large) sized inserts. Size
your fireplace by using the chart on the
bottom of page 23. Again, your Lopi
dealer is an expert in guiding you.
3. Choose Your
Surround Panel
Choose the correct size and preferred
style of insert panel. (see page 24)
3. Add A Custom Face
There are four custom door frames available for
the DVS & DVL inserts:
Wilmington (Black paint or Pewter plated)
Discovery (Black paint, Pewter or Antique Gold plated)
Cast Iron Bedford (New Iron paint - DVS only)
