Match your home to the right hearth for your side of the Cascades.
Oregon heats two very different ways—high-desert wood heat east of the mountains, gas-dominant new construction in the Willamette Valley. Tell us your zip and fuel, and we'll connect you with a trusted local dealer and a free Project Guide & Parts List for your home.
Every Project Starts From One of These Five Situations
The Cascades split Oregon's heating map in two.
Oregon runs two climate zones at once—4C marine along the coast and Willamette Valley, 5B dry high desert east of the Cascade crest—and the heating load swings hard—Burns needs nearly twice the winter heating Portland does—a gap wide enough to change what actually makes sense to install. In Klamath, Lake, and Harney counties, wood is still the default heat source, with homes burning 3-5 cords of juniper and lodgepole pine a season. West of the divide, Portland-metro new construction leans hard into gas inserts and direct-vent units suited to the milder, wetter climate.
This page is a starting point, not a storefront—Find My Fireplace doesn't sell or ship hearth equipment. We match Oregon homeowners with a trusted local dealer who knows what's permitted, ventable, and actually stocked in their county, then hand you a free planning packet for the project. Browse by county or city below, or use the fuel selector to jump straight to what fits your side of the state.

Frequently Asked Questions
Can I install a fireplace myself?
If you're putting a fire in your house on purpose, it's best to work with an expert. Unless you're genuinely experienced in framing, gas line, vent pipe, and the national code on clearances to combustibles, have a professional do it—and ideally the same company that sells you the fireplace, so warranty, service, and liability all live under one roof.
Can a fireplace actually lower my heating bill?
Yes—by creating a comfort zone. A furnace heats every square foot of the house just to warm the one room you're in; a gas fireplace on low burns roughly a sixth of the gas a typical furnace does. Set the furnace around 55–60 degrees as a baseline, then heat the rooms your family actually uses. Families who heat this way commonly save $20–$60 a month.
Wood, gas, pellet, or electric—how do I choose?
Match the fuel to your life, not the other way around. Wood: lowest fuel cost and total power-outage independence, but you're hauling and stacking. Gas: press a button, set a thermostat, no maintenance to speak of. Pellet: wood economics with automatic feeding, in exchange for weekly cleaning and a need for electricity. Electric: plugs in anywhere with honest supplemental heat. Nobody regrets the fuel that fits how they actually live.
What are the biggest mistakes people make buying a fireplace?
Five come up constantly: budgeting for the unit but not the full job (vent, gas line, electrical, finish work); drowning in options instead of starting from style and fuel; buying without an in-home preview; handing installation to a handyman instead of a pro; and giving up out of sheer indecision. Every one is avoidable with a clear plan—step one, step two, step three.
