Gas fireplace installation know-how for Eagles Nest

What our Eagles Nest specialists look at, and why it matters to the finished fireplace.

Room above the fireplace

Gas fireplaces need space above them as well as around them. The Novus manual, for example, shows a minimum clearance from the appliance to the ceiling for each installation, alongside its mantel chart.

Low ceilings, soffits and dropped beams in a family room can all come into play. We measure from the planned unit height to the ceiling at the inspection, so the fireplace can sit where you want it without breaking a clearance.

A vent of its own, never a shared flue

A direct-vent fireplace uses its own vent system. The Novus manual warns against connecting the appliance to a chimney flue serving a separate solid-fuel or gas-burning appliance, and says to vent it directly outside with a separate vent system.

Florida's Fuel Gas Code, section 503.5.7.1, likewise bars connecting an appliance to a flue that serves a separate solid-fuel appliance. If there is an old chimney nearby, it stays separate from the new fireplace.

A shutoff valve in the same room

Florida's Fuel Gas Code, section 409.5.1, requires each appliance's shutoff valve to sit in the same room as the appliance, within six feet of it, upstream of its connector and with access provided. A valve inside a fireplace firebox follows the maker's instructions.

Built-in fireplaces often put the valve inside the unit's valve compartment. We show you where it is and how it turns, so you can shut the fireplace off without hunting for the valve.

Can a gas fireplace go in a bedroom?

It can when the model and room meet the Fuel Gas Code. Direct-vent units installed to their listing are an exception to the bedroom rule, and other vented fireplaces must meet a room volume test. We check both for your room.

Can you install a gas fireplace I ordered myself?

Usually, provided the model suits the room and the outside wall. Share the model number when you book, and the installer checks its framing and vent requirements before the visit. If it will not work, you know before anything is cut.
