I feel I have made a bad decision...well after some research(which I should have done before) I know I did. I purchased a fireplace with about a 50% efficiency. I want something that will be a reliable source of heat, give a warm place when the power goes out, and lower my heating bill. The sc42a by Majestic probably won't get it done (it might but I doubt it). Could I exchange the firebox for an insert? I will try the 50% fireplace for a while and see what happens but if I am not satisfied or my bill is not decreased, I will go a different direction. A smaller insert could fit right into the sc42a correct or will their have to be more changes....chimney sysytem, piping, etc.

You would have to take the majestic out to put in an insert. Tell us some more about your chimney and we can tell you what you would be look for.
