There’s nothing quite like a traditional gas fire to warm your cockles and make you feel at home! Well, today’s gas fires come in all sorts of styles – for all sorts of homes. So if you’re looking for a modern twist on an old favourite, you can find out all about the super chic new plasma fires here. But for now at least, we’re sticking to the classics...
A traditional gas fire is a truly splendid thing. Click around and you’ll find fires harking back to days of classic design, when home and hearth were king. Of course it’s not really a traditional gas fire without a traditional fireplace and / or surround. And you’ve got the whole of history to plunder your preferred Georgian, Regency or Victorian styles, finished in wood, marble stone or brass. You can choose from freestanding fireboxes, hearth fires and basket fires with brick backed styles, grates and scuttles. You can be as traditional as you like, or even mix and match for the desired effect.
Of course for all their traditional grandeur and style, these fires are supplemented by modern innovations. For example, coal effect fires forego coal for convenience. Flueless fires banish fumes without flues. You can even eliminate standard natural gas from your traditional fire in favour of Liquid Petroleum Gas if you like!
Traditionalists and new wave gas enthusiasts alike agree that the gas fire won’t be beaten for warmth and convenience. Your traditional gas fire will supply all the heat you’ll ever need, without any of the hassles. Check out the latest offers from British Gas and you’ll see that traditional gas fires can be run at some old school prices too!
