Before a gas fireplace goes into your Lake Underhill wall
What our Lake Underhill team covers at every gas fireplace consultation.
Standoffs and the space around the unit
Factory-built gas fireplaces have standoffs that hold framing at the right distance, including a top standoff on the Novus. The manual then adds minimum clearances from the appliance and the vent pipe to combustible materials, often an inch or less, which are easy to lose during framing.
Our framers work from the manual's drawings, keep studs and headers out of the clearance zones and leave the standoffs doing their job. A clearance lost behind drywall is hard to find later.
Opening a finished wall for a fireplace
Adding a fireplace to a finished room means opening a wall that was never built for one. Behind it may be plumbing, wiring, ductwork or a structural post that changes where the fireplace and its vent can go.
We look for those clues at the inspection and say plainly which parts of the plan depend on what the wall holds. If opening it reveals something unexpected, we stop, explain and agree a change with you in writing before carrying on.
Working alongside a builder or remodeler
In a new home or a major remodel, the fireplace depends on other trades. Framing, the roof or wall opening, the gas line, the electrical rough-in and the finishes all have to arrive in order.
We give your builder the manual's framing dimensions, vent route and clearances early, and schedule our visits around the other trades. The fireplace then fits the house instead of the house being bent around the fireplace.

Answers from the family-owned team that installs gas fireplaces in Lake Underhill.
What if I smell gas after the fireplace is installed?
Leave the house straight away and phone 911 or the gas utility only after you are outdoors, lighting nothing and touching no switch or phone while still inside. Once the utility says the house is safe, our team will come back and check the installation.
Why is there fog on the glass when I start it?
Burning gas produces moisture, and it can condense on cool glass until the fireplace warms up. In summer, glass cooled by air conditioning makes it more noticeable. It clears as the glass heats.
