Gas fireplace insert — New Haven, CT
Last updated: September 24, 2026
What affects the price
The final price for a new gas fireplace depends on a few moving parts. First, you have to consider whether you are installing a unit into an existing chimney or creating a new opening in a wall, which adds labor. The type of venting required and the current proximity of your gas lines also play a big role in the complexity of the install. Aesthetic choices, like premium stone surrounds or remote-controlled flame features, will adjust the total as well.
About this service
A gas fireplace insert is a sealed unit designed to fit inside a traditional wood-burning fireplace to improve heating efficiency. It uses a vent system to exhaust combustion gases outside while heating your room. You need one if your drafty fireplace is losing more heat than it provides or if you want to switch from wood to the convenience of gas. Installation costs vary based on venting requirements, with exact pricing confirmed free on the call.
Many people think about fireplaces only in the cold, but summer is actually a great time to schedule an installation. Since demand is lower, you can often get your project finished without the long wait times seen during the peak winter months, making sure you are ready before the first frost arrives.
