Are living flame gas fires expensive to run and will all the heat go up the chimney?
A. Significant improvements have been made with regard to this type of fire since its inception many years ago. Today living flame gas fires are far more efficient than they used to be with lower running costs and improved heat outputs into the room than ever before. Although some gas fires may be more efficient and provide more heat than others dependant on whether they have a convector or heat exchanger built into the fire.
