Installing a gas fireplace in Lake Whippoorwill, explained
Notes from our gas fireplace installers working in Lake Whippoorwill.
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.
Wiring done before the wall is closed
Switch wiring, the junction box feed and any fan or light connections all sit behind the finished wall. Once the drywall and the facing go on, reaching them gets expensive.
We schedule the electrician and the control wiring while the framing is still open, test the connections and only then let the finishes close the wall. It keeps install day predictable and avoids opening a finished wall. A switch that tests fine before the drywall goes on is one nobody has to fish a wire to later.
Yearly service for a gas fireplace
Gas fireplaces stay in good order with a yearly check. Heat & Glo, for one, recommends annual service by a qualified service technician, covering items such as the glass gasket, the logs and ember material, the burner, the controls and the vent termination.
We can set up a yearly visit for your new fireplace, timed ahead of the cooler months. Any service booked within 72 hours after the free inspection is 10% off, and the first annual check is a good place to use it.

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.
Natural gas or propane, which should I choose?
Usually the fuel your home already has. If there is no natural gas service, propane from a tank works well. The fireplace must be built for, or converted with the maker's kit to, the fuel it will burn.
