What To Know About Wood-Burning Fireplaces
The open-masonry fireplace style is what most people think of when considering installing a wood-burning fireplace. Some of these fireplaces have inserts — sealed fireboxes — that make open-style fireplaces more energy-efficient.
Some wood-burning fireplace styles are venting fireboxes themselves; they’re framed into a wall and don’t need a chimney.
Here are some terms you may hear when researching wood-burning fireplaces:
- Catalytic (double-burn): Reburns gases/particulates using a catalytic combustor
- Hybrid (triple-burn): Reburns gases/particulates twice; once with super-heated air and once with a catalytic combustor
- Non-catalytic (double-burn): Reburns gases/particulates by mixing with super-heated air
- Regular combustion (single-burn): Traditional open fires; campfires/open-masonry fires
- EPA-certified: Intended as a heat source and must meet U.S. energy efficiency and emissions standards
- EPA-exempt: Decorative only and used for occasional ambiance

Wood-Burning Fireplace FAQs
Are wood-burning fireplaces eco-friendly?
The efficiency level depends on the make and model, but many eco-friendly wood-burning fireplaces are on the market today.
For example, catalytic units burn cleaner at low burn rates, reducing wood consumption. Talk to a Therm-Con specialist to learn more about the different models.
What does it mean if a fireplace is EPA-certified?
If a fireplace is EPA-certified, it meets clean-air standards for wood-burning appliances. It will generate less smoke than a non-certified fireplace and use less wood. Most wood-burning fireplaces on the market today are EPA-certified.
Will switching to an EPA-certified fireplace save me money?
Yes, upgrading to an EPA-certified wood stove like those sold and installed by Therm-Con will save you money on firewood. Older, less efficient fireplaces use significantly more wood than newer EPA-certified models.
