That depends on the type of system you select, based on your personal preference.<\/p>\n<p>There are two types of venting systems typically used for propane fireplace inserts:<\/p>\n<ol>\n<li>A <strong>direct vent system<\/strong> uses a sealed glass panel in front of the fireplace to draw outside air for combustion and exhaust combustion gases through a vent pipe that goes through an exterior wall or the roof. Direct venting is highly efficient and maintains indoor air quality.<\/li>\n<li>A <strong>vent-free (or ventless) insert<\/strong> is designed to operate without a vent. Instead, it will use advanced combustion technology to burn propane more cleanly, producing only some water vapor and carbon dioxide. It&#8217;s important to select a ventless system that is properly sized, and maintain it regularly to keep your indoor air healthy.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p>[\/vc_toggle][vc_toggle title=&#8221;Do propane fireplaces burn a lot of propane?&#8221; css=&#8221;&#8221; css_params=&#8221;&#8221;]Propane fireplaces are generally considered to be an efficient heating option compared to traditional wood-burning fireplaces.
