- 1). Decide if you'd like a direct vent or vent free propane fireplace. Know the advantages and disadvantages of both options. Direct vent units, for example, have an advantage over vent free units because all the by-products and odors can leave your home.
- 2). Create a budget. Propane fireplaces can cost anywhere from $600 to $2,000. It will be easier to select the one that's right for you if you decide how much you can afford to spend before you start looking.
- 3). Decide where you want your propane fireplace to be in your home. The fireplace will need to be installed where a gas line can be run. Also, make sure the room you choose will look better with a fireplace. You don't want your new propane fireplace to look awkward or out-of-place. Then, you can choose a fireplace that goes with the decor of the room.
- 4). Figure out how you'd like your propane fireplace to be turned on, and select one that accommodates that choice. For example, you may want to have a switch on the wall that can be used to turn on the propane fireplace.
