How a new gas fireplace comes together in Colonialtown North

How our Colonialtown North crew orders the work, and which decisions stay yours.

Keeping a new fireplace dry on site

During a remodel, a new fireplace can sit in an open room for days. Hearth & Home's manual is clear: keep the appliance dry, because mold or rust can cause odors and water may damage the controls.

We deliver the unit when its opening is ready and keep it covered until the finishes are done. If the room is exposed to weather during construction, we time the installation to suit.

Inside and outside corners

Corners of a house trap or deflect exhaust. In the Novus table, the cap stays at least six inches from an outside corner of the building and six inches from an inside corner.

We look at where the fireplace sits along the wall and how close the cap would land to a corner, a bump-out or a chimney chase. A small shift inside often keeps the cap well clear outside.

Too much pressure, too little pressure

Gas pressure has to sit inside a window. The Novus manual warns that high pressure may cause an overfire condition and damage the valve, calls for a regulator upstream of the valve if line pressure is above half a psig, and warns that low pressure can also create a hazard.

We compare the readings at the test ports with the rating plate on every installation. If either end is off, the fix happens before the fireplace goes into regular use.

Colonialtown North homeowners ask about new gas fireplaces

What Colonialtown North homeowners ask before adding a gas fireplace, answered by our installers.

Who runs the gas line to the new fireplace?

A qualified gas professional runs and connects the supply. It is listed on its own estimate line with the name of whoever does it. Our team coordinates the timing with the framing and finish work.

Do you handle the drywall and tile around the fireplace?

The estimate spells out the finish work and who does it. We build the framing and noncombustible zone to the manual and coordinate the facing, so the finishes go on without breaking a clearance.
