Building A Fireplace Insert

Thanks for all of your sweet comments on my fireplace makeover reveal yesterday.

Building a fireplace insert.

A fireplace can be a great addition to your home. It s super important that if you purchase a fireplace insert you be sure that the heater is in the front of the insert and not on the top bottom or side of the insert. We mostly cy worked so hard on that fireplace surround so it was great for us to read all the great positive feedback. First measure your fireplace opening and determine the size of plywood insert needed.

Run the painter s caulk along all trim edges nail holes and gaps. Gently push the insert into the opening until it is fully seated and secure held by friction. Here are some options to consider on how to build a fireplace. If you came to my house to see the fireplace in person you and i would.

If your fireplace already has a glass door front you will want to measure the insert to fit exactly over this space. Fireplaces add exceptional ambiance and cost efficient heat to a home. It can light up the living room and also provide a warm and cozy feeling. I wanted to hug all of your necks.

Once this dries up paint your fireplace. I felt like y all were giving us a bunch of high fives and it was awesome. Carefully maneuver the screen into place and push into the fireplace opening. Let the paint dry for at least 24 hours before you place your electric fireplace insert.
