Who It's For
A smaller open fireplace is easy to overlook as a heat source: it eats wood, gives back little warmth, and lets cold air in when it sits unused. You need an insert sized to the job that’s simple to run. The Answer Insert is for the household with a modest living area, up to about 1,200 square feet, that wants wood heat without a complicated stove to learn. Leave the fireplace open and most of the heat keeps rising up the chimney; put the Answer in and that heat comes into the room.
What Makes It Special
It runs on one air control. That single control sets how the fire burns and how much heat it puts out, so there is no second lever to figure out.
Around the firebox, a five-sided convection chamber gathers heat and spreads warm air evenly into the room. Add the optional front-mount blower to push it farther.
It burns up to 10 hours on a load, rated up to 80% efficient, and takes logs up to 18 inches long.
Possible Downsides
- The blower is optional. Without it, heat moves into the room on its own.
- It’s rated for up to 1,200 square feet. For more area, look at the Evergreen insert, rated for up to 2,000.
- A smaller fire to watch. The glass is 135 square inches; the Evergreen insert shows 183.
If you want straightforward wood heat from a modest fireplace, the Answer NexGen-Hybrid Insert is the right decision. The chair by the fireplace becomes the warmest seat in the house.
Choose a one-piece surround panel in either of two sizes, with optional trim, and add the front-mount blower or firewood moisture meters.
