What our Lancaster Park crew checks on a gas fireplace install
What our Lancaster Park specialists look at, and why it matters to the finished fireplace.
Sealing gaps, firestops and holes
Small gaps around a fireplace let air slip in and out. The Novus manual says ceiling firestops should be caulked with high-temperature caulk, and gas line holes and other openings caulked or stuffed with unfaced insulation, to prevent drafts.
It also says not to pack insulation or other combustibles between the firestops around the vent. We seal what the manual says to seal, keep open what it says to keep open and check both before the finishes close them in.
Power to the fireplace's junction box
Many gas fireplaces need household power. The Novus manual says 110 to 120 volts is wired to the unit's junction box, either for optional accessories on a standing pilot model or for the operation of a model with electronic ignition.
An electrician runs any new circuit or wiring to that junction box, and it has its own line on the estimate. We plan the box location with the framing so the connection is made before the wall is closed.
Only approved parts and accessories
Fronts, doors, fans, remotes and vent pieces all come from approved lists. The Novus manual says the warranty is voided by installing any component part not approved by the maker, and Heat & Glo's manuals warn that non-listed accessories could create a safety hazard.
We order from the approved list for your model and keep the part numbers on your records. If you want to add a fan or a new front later, we check it against the same list first.
