Fireplace Insert
I am just looking at fireplace inserts, and have found a Fuego Flame that looks just about right, and does not require a chimney liner. Has anyone heard of these? Are they easy to self install?
Thanks - Tim

Fuego's are very nice units. Be aware though that in order to properly maintain the chimney with that unit the chimney requires an access door on the exterior of the chimney (it would be placed in the smoke chamber area). The reason? The unit is not designed to be removed for annual maintainance; it is essentially a semi-permanent installation. If your chimney is not on an exterior wall of your home I would strongly suggest having a liner positively connected to it to allow for annual maintainance.
