Getting an electric fireplace right in Eatonville homes
A closer look at the work, from our family-owned crew serving Eatonville.
Closing drafts behind an insert
An old fireplace opening is connected to the chimney above it, which means moving air, stray debris and sometimes water. Dimplex's XHD manual says to seal all drafts and vents in an existing opening with a non-fibrous insulation material to prevent chimney debris from falling onto the unit.
We close the damper or the throat as the insert manual directs and seal the openings around it. The work is listed on your estimate, and we note what was done, so anyone who looks at the chimney later knows the opening has been closed off.
If you ever want to burn again
Some homeowners convert to electric and later want a real fire again. That is possible, but the steps have to be reversed properly. The insert comes out, the sealing material at the damper or throat is removed and the chimney gets a full inspection before anyone lights anything.
We record what was done when we install the insert, so reversing it is straightforward. Keep that record with your home papers. It tells the next contractor exactly what was sealed, where and with what material.
Electric fireplaces in rental homes
Landlords and hosts often like electric fireplaces because there is no fuel to manage and no chimney to service. The installation still has to suit the manual, and guests need simple controls.
We install the unit securely, route power so no cord crosses the floor and leave clear instructions for guests. A wall switch or a remote mounted in a holder can help. We keep the model and serial on file in case a guest reports a problem.
Water-vapor fireplaces need their reservoir reachable
Water-vapor electric fireplaces make their flame from a fine mist lit by lights, so they carry a water reservoir that needs refilling and cleaning. Their manuals say what water to use and how to reach the tank.
When we build one of these into a wall, we plan access to the reservoir so refilling does not mean pulling the unit out. We also keep the unit level, which matters more when water is involved. The refill routine is part of the walkthrough.

Your Eatonville electric fireplace questions, answered
Our family-owned team in Eatonville answers the questions that come up on installation jobs.
Will you install a fireplace I bought online?
Yes. Send us the model number when you book so we can read its manual before the visit. If the model does not suit your wall, we tell you before anything is cut.
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.
