We have a 1928 home with a decorative fireplace (attached photo w/ dimensions). Does anyone know of a product (direct vent? house has no chimney.) that would work for this? Do custom solutions exist?
We can't seem to find one that will fit - please help!
You could probably find an electric solution. I don't think they need venting... you would have to wire behind the fireplace & probably cut through some of the stonework in the back. or bottom (but it would be concealed by the insert anyway). I would look into an electric insert & then get a beautiful screen to go in front... (maybe something black iron and arts & craft, from the look of the wood work nearby)

Would you be interested in something like this? Not logs but still kinda authentic.

what you can do is look into the cost of adding a flue to the house. I would not think it would be too difficult to add. There must have been a Chimney at one point in time, you could look at running a newer flue along the same area that used to have the chimney.
