Electric fireplace details that matter in Boggy Creek
Straight answers about electric fireplace installation in Boggy Creek, from the people who do the work.
Electrical work belongs to an electrician
Makers of electric fireplaces tell owners to have an electrician install any new circuit and to make sure construction and wiring comply with local building codes. That includes new outlets, dedicated circuits and hardwired connections.
Our installers handle the fireplace, the framing and the finish. When your project needs electrical work, we list it separately on the estimate, coordinate timing with the electrician and mark the connection point from the manual. You always know who is doing what and what it costs.
Not directly on carpet
Some plug-in fireboxes draw air from beneath the unit. Dimplex's XHD manual cautions against installing the fireplace directly on carpet or similar surfaces that may restrict air flow, and asks for clearance for air circulation beneath the unit and at least half an inch behind it.
When a mantel package or plug-in unit is going into a carpeted room, we set it on a suitable base or choose a spot on a hard floor. It is a small detail that lets the heater work the way it was designed to.
Checking the wall before cutting
Walls hide pipes, wires, ducts and sometimes fire blocking. Cutting an opening for a recessed fireplace without checking can mean a surprise leak or a damaged cable.
We check the wall before cutting, starting with small inspection openings where needed. If something is in the way, we plan around it or list moving it as separate work. The opening goes where it is safe to put it, and the plan is adjusted before any damage is done.
Hauling away the old unit
When a new electric fireplace replaces an old one, or an insert replaces doors and a grate, the old parts have to go somewhere. Electronics and glass should not just be left at the curb.
We take the old unit and packaging with us and dispose of them properly. That is listed on your estimate as part of the job. If you want to keep the old unit for another room, tell us and we will leave it boxed and ready to move.

Your Boggy Creek electric fireplace questions, answered
If your question is not here, our Boggy Creek team is a phone call away.
What happens to my old fireplace doors and grate?
We remove them and take them away as part of the job, and the removal is listed on your estimate. If you want to keep any of it, tell us and we will set it aside.
Do I need to be home during the installation?
It helps to be home at the start and for the walkthrough at the end. That is when we confirm the height and position and show you the controls. In between, we just need access to the room and the breaker panel.
