[quote=Anonymous]We are getting quotes for this now and it looks like it will cost something close to 10K in the DC metro area. Some of that cost is our choice of fireplace, which is not the cheapest option - 6300. But the more expensive model includes a lot of features that we want that are extra costs on cheaper models so the cheaper models are not that cheap. Some of it is our optional upgrades (a less modern looking screen front to better fit the look of our 100yr old bungalow), upgrading to a set of logs that look more realistic. A lot of the cost is extra stuff - gas line installation, electrical installation in the fireplace (the blower which helps distribute the heat is electric and there are lights in the fireplace too), permits, shaving the brick 1/8th of an inch so our preferred model fits, taxes. Honestly, it costs 2x what I expected it to cost, but we need to do it. We hate wood fires indoors and would never use them. [/quote]
