Get Substantial Savings from our Regency promo

Want to feel like a king or a queen? Take advantage of Old Smokey’s special promotional offer in association with Regency wood stoves. Regency simply wants to give you the royal treatment. (As you may know, regency is a government in place of a king or queen. And who doesn’t want to play the part of a king or queen every now and then?) Old Smokey’s is excited to be part of this cost-saving offer.

So, here’s the deal. More precisely, here are the deals.

Buyers can get up to $300 off select Regency products.

Between June 1, 2016 and September 5, 2016, Old Smokey’s customers can receive up to a $300 rebate for purchasing a qualifying Regency product.

Three levels of savings

Old Smokey’s will offer a $150, $100 or $50 instant rebate on eligible products, and Regency will pay a $150, $100 or $50 manufacturer’s rebate to match the instant discount.

Maximum savings

The top offer gives purchasers $300 off. You get a $150 instant Old Smokey’s store rebate plus a $150 mail-in rebate from Regency. That adds up to a fit-for-a–king-or-a-queen hefty savings! This maximum rebate offer applies to Regency models F3500, F5100, HI300, HI400, R90 and EX90.

Medium savings

The next tier of savings consists of $200 off. You get a $100 instant Old Smokey’s rebate coupled with a $100 mail-in rebate from Regency. These are the Regency wood stove models for this level of savings: F2400, S2400, F3100, I2400, I3100, H2100, HI200 and CI2600.

Minimum savings

With models F1100, I1200, CS1200, CI1200, CI1250, H200 and H300, buyers qualify for a total of $100 off the typical sale price. Again, it involves an Old Smokey’s rebate in combination with a Regency rebate: $50 from each.

Some fine print

The promotional offer applies to Regency or Hampton products (as listed above) sold between June 1, 2016 and September 5, 2016. All claims must be completed online and postmarked in the mail by October 17, 2016 to be valid. The offer is limited to one rebate per serial number.

More Efficient Heat from a Fireplace Insert

Regency Classic™ I1200
Small Wood Insert

Not all fireplaces are created equal. Depending on the age of your home and/or the overall condition of your fireplace and all of its parts, you could be sending some serious money right up the chimney during the heating season; it’s estimated that a typical homeowner can lose up to 8% of valuable heated air from an typical open fireplace up the chimney. If reading this statistic has you even the slightest bit scared about using your fireplace as a heating source when the weather turns cold, don’t write it off just yet. The good news is you can transform your fireplace into an efficient room heater simply by adding a fireplace insert and increase your heating efficiency by up to 40%.

WHAT CAN A FIREPLACE INSERT DO FOR YOU?

An insert is the answer to making your old fireplace more efficient without having to replace it, and, most of the time, they can be retrofitted to your existing wood-burning fireplace seamlessly. They solve two problems of heat escaping through the fireplace and up the chimney. First, inserts operate like stoves in the sense that you close the doors. Closing the doors allows the heat from the room to not flow up the chimney. Secondly, with the doors closed, they radiate the heat of the fire through circulating air vents to push the heat throughout the room, rather than just very hot in front of the fireplace.

BUT HOW DO THEY LOOK?

Adding an insert will only slightly (in most cases) change the overall look of your fireplace; however, it can take it from a net energy loser to a helpful tool in keeping those skyrocketing heating costs at bay during the winter months. They can really add to the decor of a room and many very efficient inserts have old world traditional looks while some can be very modern looking to match your tastes and overall interior design of a room.

CAN YOU AFFORD A FIREPLACE INSERT?

You’re probably sitting there wondering how much an insert is going to set you back. Nevertheless, they are affordable. Inserts can run anywhere from $2,000 to $4,000 depending on the time of year and your geographic location. This is an all-inclusive price, which includes installation and a new specialized chimney liner. In the US, sometimes there are tax breaks and deductions for moving into a more efficient burning appliance such as an insert, so check the most current IRS income tax code for some possible extra savings.

ARE THERE DIFFERENT TYPES OF FIREPLACE INSERTS?

If you’re considering a fireplace insert, you have plenty of options from which to choose. Choosing the type of heater that best meets the needs of your particular application is as simple as deciding what’s most important to you:

• If burning real wood and having heat even if the power goes out is your goal, choose a wood-burning insert.
• If burning a bio-fuel without the hassle of wood in an attempt to minimize your carbon footprint is your goal, choose a pellet insert.
• If flipping on fast heat in a particular portion of the home is your goal, choose a gas insert.

Because fuel prices are in a constant state of flux, any savings measurements are really just a moving target. Generally speaking, a homeowner who opts to have an insert installed is looking at an annual savings of anywhere from $75-$250 dollars. While this may not sound like a tremendous amount of savings considering the upfront costs of the insert itself, the savings over the long haul can and will really add up over the lifespan of the insert.

Your home is an investment, and, as such, any decision you make needs to include at least a small measure of foresight. Protecting your family and preserving your home and lifestyle is important.
