fisher insert question

[woodze]

Hi, I'm looking at a large fisher insert to buy from a friend. It came with their home so they don't know much about it. It has two cathedral type doors, inside fire box is 27" deep x 16" high x about 21" wide. I've been reading the postings which are very informative on most series. I have a few questions. Are all the inserts the same size, how many cubic feet are the fire boxes and approx how many square feel they will heat ? Also, what price are poeple paying for them?
Thank you
Woodze

I recently put a Fisher fireplace insert in, and it easily heats my 2048 sq ft with no trouble. As far as price, I found mine at a local fireplace shop on consignment for $300, but it had a fresh coat of paint on the insert as well as the surround. Here is a link to the thread I started showing mine. Good luck and enjoy.

The full size insert is this size; This diagram will tell if that is what you have. There were other smaller Inserts such as Honey, Cub, and Polar Bear.



A blower makes a big difference in heating area.
Price varies with model. Full size came in black, nickel, brass, and brass and glass.
They are worth whatever buyer and seller agree upon.
