I am considering these direct vent gas inserts: Mendota, Rushmore from White Mt. Hearth, Iron Strike and Majestic. The first two are priced similarly and are about $3500 higher than the other two. Approximately $10,000 vs. $7500 for the unit and installation. Are these brands significantly different in quality?
One installer suggested that we go with a "millivolt" unit as opposed to an electronic ignition claiming that it is more reliable. He also said that Mendota is more complex and harder to install. Is this accurate information?
The insert will be used occasionally for aesthetic reasons.
Thanks for any help!
