Gas fireplace details our Edgewood team never skips
What our Edgewood specialists look at, and why it matters to the finished fireplace.
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.
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.
Inspecting the unit before it goes in
Glass and small parts can be damaged in transit. The manual asks installers to report any shipping damage to the dealer, particularly to the glass, and says installing a damaged appliance or vent component voids the warranty.
Our crew inspects the fireplace, the glass and the vent parts on arrival. A damaged piece is replaced before installation instead of being noticed after the wall is finished. Your fireplace goes into the wall in the condition it left the factory.

Gas fireplace installation questions in Edgewood
Straight answers with no sales script, as we give them in Edgewood homes.
Where can the vent cap go on my house?
Wherever the manual's clearance table allows. It sets distances from windows, doors, soffits, corners, air intakes, the gas meter and walkways. We measure each one before choosing the spot.
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.
