Planning a gas fireplace for your Boggy Creek home
Written by the family-owned team that installs gas fireplaces across Boggy Creek.
Building a chase for the fireplace
When a gas fireplace sits outside the main wall line, it goes into a chase, a framed box that encloses the unit and often its vent. The Novus manual says to build the chase in the manner of the home's outside walls, insulate its walls, ceiling and floor, and install vapor and air barriers to the same standard as the rest of the house.
A chase that leaks air works against the fireplace and the air conditioning. We build it tight, seal its penetrations and coordinate the exterior finish so it matches the house.
A fireplace that has been under water
Water and gas controls do not mix. The Novus manual rules out running the appliance once any part of it has been submerged, and it has a qualified service technician look it over and renew every control system part and every gas control that went under.
If a storm or a plumbing leak has reached your fireplace, tell us before anyone tries to light it. Sometimes the right answer is a new fireplace, and we explain why on the estimate.
Enough gas pressure when everything runs
A fireplace can light perfectly on a quiet afternoon and struggle when the water heater, the range and the dryer are all running. The Novus manual lists minimum and maximum inlet pressures and says the minimum must be met while other household gas appliances are operating.
At startup, we read the inlet pressure with other appliances on as well as off. A drop below the minimum points to a supply that needs attention, and we flag it before the job is signed off.

Boggy Creek homeowners ask about new gas fireplaces
What Boggy Creek homeowners ask before adding a gas fireplace, answered by our installers.
Does a gas fireplace need yearly service?
Makers recommend it. A yearly visit from a qualified technician covers the glass gasket, logs, burner, controls and vent cap. We can schedule it ahead of the cooler months.
What is the difference between a gas insert and a gas fireplace?
An insert fits inside an existing fireplace and vents through its chimney. A gas fireplace is a complete unit with its own firebox and vent, installed where you choose. We help you decide which suits your home.
