There is of course,quite a lot of time and effort that must be put into the maintenance and cleaning of a real fireplace. Every time the fire dies out and you want to build a new one, the ashes must be collected and hauled outside. The chimney must then be professionally cleaned each and every year.With the advancement of technology, different styles, designs and types of fireplaces have become available within the marketplace for an alternative preference when it comes to easier maintenance, cleanliness and convenience. Modern fireplaces mimic the conventional type, but are cleaner and much more energy efficient.
