Regency: Cascades Medium Wood I2500

Twelve-hour burns from the fireplace you already have. Quick Facts • Heating Capacity: 1,000–2,200 sq ft• Efficiency: 78% (EPA, higher heating value).• Viewing Area: 161 sq in• Maximum Log Size: 18″• Burn Time: Approx. 8–12 hours• Fuel: Wood.• Controls: Front-mounted air control with catalytic bypass.• Fan: Optional Who It’s For You want your standard fireplace to carry the house through a winter night on wood, and a basic insert will not make it to morning. You need a medium insert built for long burns. If you want twelve-hour burns, 78 percent efficiency, and a full-size firebox in a standard fireplace, the Cascades I2500 is the one. The simpler insert gives you the same fire and an earlier alarm. What Makes It Special The I2500 is the Classic I2450’s firebox with Eco-Boost hybrid triple-burn: the catalytic combustor extends the burn to twelve hours and lifts efficiency to 78 percent, so a standard fireplace becomes a real overnight heater. Hybrids carry a ten-year warranty on top of the lifetime limited warranty. Finish it with a classic black or nickel-accent door, regular or oversize backing plates, and nickel convection grilles, and add the two-speed fan to move heat off the hearth. Possible Downsides • The catalytic combustor is a wear part and adds a bypass lever at lighting; the Classic I2450 is simpler.• The fan is optional, not included. If you want your fireplace to heat the house overnight on wood, the Cascades I2500 is the right decision. You come downstairs to a warm house and a bed of coals, not a cold hearth. The I2500 offers a classic black or nickel-accent door, regular or oversize backing plates, nickel convection grilles, a two-speed fan kit, bottom fascia, and replacement ceramic or metal combustors.
