Get an electric fireplace

By Tom Flynn, Green Change 

Did you know that wood and gas fireplaces can create poor air quality in your home? 

 The California Air Resources Board warns that high levels of smoke pollutants have been measured in some homes with wood and gas burning stoves. They recommend that people with heart disease or respiratory illnesses like asthma or emphysema, don’t burn at all.

Keep your home warm and healthy, and reduce your carbon emissions by replacing your wood or gas burning fireplace with an electric one. You can get a 10% discount on an electric fireplace insert through Electrify Now.

 Don’t have a fireplace but have a wood or gas freestanding fire stove? Look into getting one of the best rated electric fireplace stoves like the one I bought here. It’s great for visual effect, heating up and making a room cozy without the wood or gas emissions of a typical fire. Plus if your home runs on 100% renewable energy, such as the Deep Green program with MCE, then you will be reducing your impact on the planet even further.

 Keep your family safe, warm, and reduce your carbon footprint today!
