Fireplace Remodel | Heating Our Entire House With Wood!

Our old fireplace just wasn't cutting it anymore! With the price of everything going up these days, one of them being the cost of propane, we wanted to be able to heat our entire house with wood. Our old fireplace just wasn't efficient enough to get the job done. So, we remodeled and got a zero clearance Ventis fireplace that is WAY more efficient and is able to heat our entire house. There will be a part 2 to this video when we get the river rock put on. But as for the fireplace, it is completely done and functional, just waiting to put on the rock! We hope you enjoy and stick around for the next fireplace video update! Be sure and click that SUBSCRIBE button on your way out! We really appreciate it!

I too have heated solely with wood for 34 yrs! 2800 SF home. I have a Olympic Avalon stove. It's so nice to be warm and save lots of $$$! You have a nice stove. I'm in Oregon

[@janicewilliams2194]

That's what you call an upgrade alright. That will out perform any I have seen. Not to mention it is beautiful.

[@ShaneZettelmier]

That stove is hot. Lol. What a heartwarming video. 😂😂 That looks pretty cool, I like how they had the vent options to heat the rooms behind it, that should make a big difference. :)

[@gaylewatkins4685]

The new fire box is gorgeous and plenty of space for a nice big fire. This is a huge upgrade. Awesome job!! Take care and God Bless.

[@SawyerRidgeFarm]

Thank you! We are very pleased with it!

[@lisabyles867]

Welcome back. Beautiful home & picture of a river. The Best fireplace that I have ever seen.

[@beverlyparrott3890]

That is the coolest fireplace. That river rock will be perfect 👌 Great idea guys. 😉 enjoy.

[@helenlane6149]

That is a great fireplace and will certainly heat your lovely home, what a wonderful addition to your home. Love how Judas was waiting for the heat. Boy he has grown.

[@alexfreer8892]

So great to have you uploading again and showing some new stuff - love watching the transformation bit by bit. 💓

[@SawyerRidgeFarm]

Thank you!

[@carolschreffler5112]

Greetings from Ohio friends. So great to see you again. Yes, I love wood heat. I too have a wood burner. That will definitely heat your home.

[@jenthrasher5056]

Wow, I love the size, and that rock is going to be nice.

[@dianekilbourne5734]

Missed you guys, glad to know nothing was wrong. Also nice to hear you guys helped out your parents. Welcome back.

[@maryw970]

That is nice. Hope it does its job. Glad to see you again. God bless you and Alex

[@SquigglersWigglers]

That’s fantastic!!! I miss having a wood stove also. Best heat ever!! Thanks for sharing!! Just sharing that I would take toilet paper cardboard rolls and fill with lint from the dryer. That’s how I created my own fire starters.

[@ameliasonger3758]

Love the new fire box. God Bless you and your family

[@bradcash8572]

That cold air intake going through the wall will be great for heat circulation. That's a nice set up.

[@tanyajenkins919]

Good seeing you guys again have missed you . Be nice to get you a fire place that will help you heat your home . .Have a great day.

[@30547etris]

Wood heat warms you to the bone, I love wood heat.

[@donna7881]

Good evening Jacob & Alex. Alex's father is gonna start his own KZbin channel... lol It looks very nice & the river rock will look sweet. well done thank you for sharing

[@SawyerRidgeFarm]

He would. Lol And it would be lots of sarcasm and jokes! haha

[@brownacresfarm2353]

You tube...whats that

[@GoodeMa10]

Alex, at 10:48 I thought he said to get yourself a piece of pie on a plate. LOL I thought he was hinting to you to get him a snack. Loved the little ones at the end.

[@jangrahame4891]

A video well worth waiting for. Improving your homes sustainability right now is a smart move, and shows your stewardship and love for your family. God bless you guys!

[@SawyerRidgeFarm]

Thank you Jan

[@mountainlivinghomestead429]

The new fireplace looks great! Can’t wait to see the rock on the wall.

[@mrsgennyann]

Love your new fireplace! It will look gorgeous when finished. So happy to see you back on KZbin, but miss seeing Alex on the videos. Hope to see her soon!

[@adelacoburn1396]

I had assumed Judah was helping with the fireplace remodel... but clearly it was too much and decided to lay down on the job 😄. The fireplace is really nice, I look forward to seeing the completed remodel and an update on how it's doing, with heating your home. Alex, your dad is funny.. Thank you for another Sawyer video, take care and God bless.

[@SawyerRidgeFarm]

Thank you Adela! He’s got his jokes. Lol

[@fredasdaughter]

Very nice, Jacob! Can't wait to see it all finished with the rock. Judah certainly seems to approve!

[@rubymcgilvra1771]

Love the new fireplace. I want to be able to heat with wood so bad, but at the time it's not possible. At the time I am using a propane space heater and 4 electric heaters. My son cuts and sells wood so I wouldn't have problem getting the wood

[@PrepsteadingWithBelinda]

the house is very nice, and the fireplace is a beautiful accent to it. I miss the smell of a wood stove we went to propane due to age and back issues.

[@donnadunlop]

That fireplace is a beauty and hold 25 inch logs, it is going to be the center piece of your living room. Looking forward to the rock going on.

[@deborahnorman3027]

Glad you are back. You've been missed.

[@mpedmar9701]

Good morning Jacob and Alex. I grew up with an old Gatling wood burning stove. She had a cooktop surface. And we actually utilized it for cooking during the winter so it accomplished two tasks. That's a beautiful fireplace. are you all going to be gathering your rocks for your fireplace off your land. I always think that makes your fireplace a little more personal and unique. Thanks for sharing. Stay happy, healthy, hydrated and safe. And may God continue to bless you your adventures.

[@SawyerRidgeFarm]

No we will not be using our rock. That would be really cool

[@maxinekelly8417]

The stove is really nice suits the house.❤️❤️🇦🇺🇦🇺👍👍

[@georgecharokee4570]

Very Nice Up Grade to the Homestead. Looks like Two Side Intake Vents. Pulling Air from Inside of House. I Take It, One Output Blower Motor Vent. Nothing like a Wood Stove Heat 💯🔥🔥🔥👊🏽👏🏽👍🏾‼‼

[@rhondabrown1148]

Judah did an excellent job supervising! Great fireplace, I love wood heat. That’s how we heat our house.

[@mjrehwalt46]

Oh, fireplace envy going on here right now. We only used wood heat for the first 43 years of our marriage. When we retired and left the dairy farm for eastern Washington state we couldn't find a newer home with wood burning fireplaces, just gas or electric. Its not the same. My old bones could use some wood heat. It's going to be beautiful! Enjoy and God bless.

[@SawyerRidgeFarm]

It’s a shame they don’t put these in newer homes isn’t it?

[@GoodeMa10]

OMG I just saw you are at 46.8. It was not long ago we were posting to get people to come to your channel. It will be no time before you hit 100K. So amazing.

[@SawyerRidgeFarm]

A 100k would be a super blessing

[@lindahipp8329]

Sounds like a nice fireplace. GOD BLESS Y'ALL.

[@hollandspinehaven2634]

Wow that is a great change for heating the house...we heat with wood only and love it...

Oh and it is great to see you both again. Missed you on our KZbin tv channel. Blessings for a better year.💞🙏🥰

[@CountryViewAcres]

The fireplace looks great. I know you love it. We have one and it heats our main floor of our cBin and the loft.

[@robertadriver6931]

Jacob & Alex this will be an absolute bonus to living in comfort throughout the winter months. Your house will be toasty warm haven even on those cold, wet, & windy nights during the spring & autumn months too. Judah will welcome the warmth as he lies in comfort by the fire. Take care & God bless.
