Chimney & Fireplaces/gas fireplace inserts

Question
Does anyone make a gas FP insert that draws air from the outside for combustion, are these more efficient than gas FP's that draw air from inside the house.

Answer
Hello Will, check with your local wood stove store and see what they have available. I always say local because if you buy and have a problem local might not work on it even if it is under warranty "we only service what we sell" even if they sell your unit.
