The chimney, the framing and the fire, for Haralson Estates homes
What our installers look for, and why it matters, on Haralson Estates fireplace jobs.
Weather protection for the chase top and cap
Detailed instructions for the chase top, storm collar and termination cap come packed with those parts. To protect against corrosion on parts exposed to weather, the E-series manual recommends painting the chase top and termination cap with a rust-resistant paint.
We follow the packed instructions for each part, including the air space between the chimney and the enclosure, and we tell you at handover which parts are exposed and what their upkeep looks like over the years.
The hearth extension for a factory-built unit
Section R1004.2 says hearth extensions of approved factory-built fireplaces shall be installed in accordance with the listing of the fireplace. The manual sets the size and material, and some makers sell a hearth extension piece tested with the unit.
The hearth extension is where embers land when a log shifts, so its size is not a styling choice. We build or place it to the manual, finish it in noncombustible material you choose and show you its edges before rugs and furniture go back.
A new fireplace is permitted work
Florida Building Code, Building, section 105.1 requires anyone who intends to construct, enlarge, alter or repair a building, or cause such work to be done, to first apply to the building official and obtain the required permit. Adding or replacing a fireplace and its chimney falls within that kind of work.
The local building department decides what it needs to see. We tell you what applies at your address, list any permit fee separately and plan the work so inspections can happen at the right stage.
Same size does not mean compatible
Two factory-built fireplaces with the same opening width can still differ in depth, standoff positions, chimney diameter, hearth extension size and mantel clearance. A replacement chosen because its face matches the old one often matches nothing behind that face.
Before a replacement is ordered, we set its manual beside the existing framing, the chimney route and the finish you want to keep. If something will not line up, you learn that at the free inspection, while you can still pick a different model at no cost.
