Why Choose a Pellet Insert

A pellet insert brings the economy of wood heat with the convenience of a thermostat: Pour in a bag of pellets, set the temperature, and let the auger do the tending.

Pellets burn hot and clean, store neatly, and cost less than most heating fuels per delivered BTU—a practical answer for a fireplace you want working, not just watching.

We'll size the insert to your room, install it with the right liner, and keep it running with in-house service.

"Can’t begin to say enough about our positive experience with Tate Builders Supply. Fourteen years ago we visited their show room looking for a fireplace costing $8,000, but the salesman, Tim Duncan, suggested a lower costing brand. It has been just wonderful all these years. Embarrassing we have not had the fireplace serviced until today. Jimmy did a wonderful job. He showed us several things about the fireplace we never knew, like that there are ambient lights in the rear. I highly recommend Tate Building Supply and their employees."

"Tate Builders did a phenomenal job working on my natural gas fireplace. I could not be happier! They promptly scheduled my appointment, diagnosed and fixed the problem within 30 minutes, cleaned the fireplace to make it look like new, added some aesthetic charm, charged me an exceptionally reasonable rate, and Jim could not have been better to work with. He was professional and courteous and took the time to educate me about my fireplace as he was working. Perfect experience all around. I will absolutely go back to them again for regular maintenance and any further issues."

"Tate Builders did an absolutely fantastic job repairing my chimney and replacement my entire fireplace. The work was extensive and my family and I were amazed at how efficient they worked. Within two days, 95% of the work was done! Plus, the men were kind and friendly around my family and that was very surprising. I couldn't recommend Tate Builders more highly!"

Common Questions About Pellet Inserts

Plain-language answers, including the one about price.

What's the difference between a pellet insert and a wood insert?

Both go into an existing fireplace. A pellet insert burns compressed wood pellets from a hopper, feeds itself, and runs on a thermostat. A wood insert burns firewood you load by hand.

Does a pellet insert need electricity?

Yes. The auger, fans, and controls run on standard household power, which is what lets it run itself for hours on a full hopper.

Can I see one running before I buy?

Yes. More than 50 displays burn live across our two showrooms. Schedule an appointment, and we'll show you the models that fit your opening.
