I am very thankful to have a furnace that works great! In our old house, the furnace gave us a lot of issues.
It would randomly shut off, and we had to reset it.
It was really frustrating. One time, it shut off when we were not home. Thankfully, we were not gone long enough for the pipes to freeze, but it was close. When we were looking for a house, we made sure to check the furnace before even considering a house. Even though our furnace is great in our new house, I really wanted a fireplace in our living room. To me, it makes a room feel super cozy to have a fireplace in it. I remembered my grandparents house and the fireplace that they had. I wanted one just like it. It was an electric fireplace. I do like the smell of a wood fireplace, but I just did not want to have to deal with chopping wood all of the time. I knew that an electric fireplace would do the trick. My husband took me shopping for a fireplace, and we found one that I loved in the first store that we stopped at. We checked out a few more places to see if we could get a better deal, but we ended up back at the store we started at. I love my new fireplace so much! It is exactly what I wanted and then some. It a beautiful gray stone, and it goes with my living room decor so well. It looks like it was made for our house.
