It turns a small, drafty masonry fireplace into a real heater for 250 to 1,200 sq ft, with up to 45,000 BTU\/h, 17\" logs and burn times up to 7 hours. It is EPA 2020 certified at 1.5 g\/h, with an average overall efficiency of 75% (HHV) and an optimum efficiency of 82%. A 90 CFM blower and a 26\" x 42\" faceplate come with it.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWho the CW2100 is for\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe CW2100 is built for fireplaces that are too small for most inserts.

It is a strong supplemental heater for the room it sits in and the spaces open to it, not a whole-house furnace for a cold, drafty home. If your fireplace opening is larger, a bigger insert will hold more wood and burn longer.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eFireplace fit and installation\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe CW2100 is approved for masonry fireplaces only; it is not approved for factory-built (zero-clearance) fireplaces, alcoves or mobile homes. The minimum masonry opening is 25\" wide x 19\" high x 15 1\/2\" deep; add at least 4\" of width if you plan to connect a \u003ca href=\"\/products\/drolet-5-fresh-air-intake-kit-ac01298\"\u003e5\" fresh air intake kit (AC01298)\u003c\/a\u003e. Overall the insert measures 27 7\/8\" wide, 20 1\/8\" high and 21 7\/8\" deep, and the faceplate needs 1\" of clearance to a combustible side or top surround. The decorative faceplate panel can be installed or left off, and the blower power cord can be moved to either side.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eChimney liner and the liner-kit bundles\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe CW2100 needs a full-length 6\" stainless steel chimney liner listed to UL 1777, run from the insert to the top of the chimney.

Under EPA test conditions it delivers 8,471 to 31,700 BTU\/h of overall heat output from low to high burn, with a manufacturer-rated maximum of 45,000 BTU\/h on a dense load of dry cordwood. Burn time tops out at about 7 hours on a full load of dry hardwood with the air turned down; on a cold night with the air open, plan on reloading every few hours. The air control sits above the door and uses a removable handle, and a C-Cast baffle and ceramic glass in a cast iron door frame round out the build.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eCW2100 vs. Englander Blue Ridge 150-I vs. Drolet Escape 1500-I\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp class=\"medium-hide large-up-hide\" style=\"font-size:1.4rem;font-weight:700;color:#c45f1c;margin:0 0 0.6rem\"\u003e↔ Swipe the table to see more →\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cdiv style=\"overflow-x:auto;-webkit-overflow-scrolling:touch;max-width:100%;padding:1px;background:linear-gradient(to right,#fff 30%,rgba(255,255,255,0)),linear-gradient(to right,rgba(255,255,255,0),#fff 70%) 100% 0,radial-gradient(farthest-side at 0 50%,rgba(0,0,0,0.25),rgba(0,0,0,0)),radial-gradient(farthest-side at 100% 50%,rgba(0,0,0,0.25),rgba(0,0,0,0)) 100% 0;background-repeat:no-repeat;background-size:40px 100%,40px 100%,16px 100%,16px 100%;background-attachment:local,local,scroll,scroll\"\u003e\u003ctable style=\"width:680px;min-width:680px;table-layout:auto;border:0.1rem solid rgba(var(--color-foreground),0.2);box-shadow:none\"\u003e\n\u003cthead\u003e\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003e\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003cth\u003e\u003ca href=\"\/products\/century-heating-cw2100-wood-insert-cb00027\"\u003eCentury CW2100\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003cth\u003e\u003ca href=\"\/products\/englander-blue-ridge-150-i-wood-insert\"\u003eEnglander Blue Ridge 150-I\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003cth\u003e\u003ca href=\"\/products\/drolet-escape-1500-i-wood-insert\"\u003eDrolet Escape 1500-I\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\u003c\/thead\u003e\n\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eHeating area\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e250–1,200 sq ft\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e250–1,200 sq ft\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e500–1,800 sq ft\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eFirebox\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e1.1 cu ft\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e1.1 cu ft\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e1.86 cu ft\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eMax heat output\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e45,000 BTU\/h\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e45,000 BTU\/h\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e65,000 BTU\/h\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eMax log length\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e17\"\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e16\"\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e18\"\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eEmissions\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e1.5 g\/h\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e1.5 g\/h\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e2.4 g\/h\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eBlower\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e90 CFM, included\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e90 CFM, included\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e144 CFM, included\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eFirebox and door warranty\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e5 years\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eLimited lifetime\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eLimited lifetime\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe Blue Ridge 150-I is the CW2100's closest match on paper; the Escape 1500-I is the step up if your fireplace is at least 27 1\/2\" wide, 21 1\/2\" high and 12 3\/4\" deep and you need more heat.
