Thinking of getting one installed too! do you mind asking me what kind of surround or mantle (If any at all) you went for? Really undecided here what will suit my 1930s house...

ItsAll, he offered and it seemed rude to say no!

We also have a 1930s house and when he took off the 80s monstrosity of a fireplace and knocked through the original fireplace was arched.
