Just wanted to thank Hearth.com and its helpful members for all the information about stoves and inserts. Also (because I like pictures) here's my new home heating solution!

Old "nice to look at but not warm" fireplace

New "wow these things are expensive but the house is smokin' hot" fireplace!

Looks great, the gun adds a nice touch. I've been looking for a Kentucky Long Rifle to hang over my mantel, but haven't found the right one yet.

Yes, looks good and expensive for sure. 4k for our insert + 6" SS lining installation. But wow, worth every penny (2 winters now). Are you obsessing over your burn? Do you sit and stare at your fire for hours like us?

I am in the midst of removing winter and adding Spring to our entry- welcome mat, etc. I can try and force Spring, right? Looking at signs that could hang on the light out there- "We don't call 911 here" - and has a gun etched into the wood. Another option is one that reads "The neighbors have better stuff" and lastly "Come back with a Warrant". Having a hard time deciding
