In the $1200 range I would be looking at a Drolet or an Englander 13 NCi. How large an area will it be heating? Is the fireplace room large and open to the rest of the house?
Yes the best I have found is $1550.00. I am having to rebuild my factory built fireplace and that is taking a chunk out of my budget as I cannot do all the work myself. I am just hoping that being the time of year a clearance sale will happen. I am near Lexington, KY and will travel @200 miles to pick up. Or that there is a equal out there that provides nearly the same dimensions and specifications.
I haven't read any posts on this insert yet. Timberwolf is the economy line made by Napoleon's parent company Wolf Steel. This insert looks similar to the Napoleon 1402. FWIW, ash pans are seriously overrated. Ours never gets used.
So your rebuilding the factory fireplace to install an insert into it? Why not tear the factory built out and be done with that, and install a freestander in it's place?
If I understand correctly this is for a factory built fireplace, the englander 13nci is approved for masonry only. You are going to be limited to factory built certified inserts.
If you are switching out to a masonry fireplace ignore this.
