The result is a cold (or hot) draft that travels into your living space. With the glass fireplace doors closed when your fireplace is not in use, you can eliminate these uncomfortable drafts from the chimney.  An open fireplace is just like an open window. Installing glass fireplace doors can minimize the amount of air lost up the chimney which saves you money!

When it’s hot outside and you’ve got the AC cranked up, the last thing you need is for all that nice (and expensive!) cool air to find its way into the fireplace and then escape through the chimney. Fireplace doors make a perfect seal between a home’s interior air and the great outdoors.
