Getting an electric fireplace right in Malibu Groves homes
Here is how our local team thinks through an electric fireplace installation at your Malibu Groves home.
An old fireplace with a gas line
Some fireplaces being converted to electric were once fed by gas. The gas supply has to be shut off and capped properly by someone qualified for gas work before an electric insert goes into that opening.
We check for a gas connection during the inspection and never work around a live line. If one is there, disconnecting it goes on the estimate as a separate item done by the right trade. Only then does the electric insert go in.
Removing doors, grates and screens
Before an insert goes in, the old fireplace hardware usually has to come out. Glass doors, grates, andirons and mesh screens all take up space the insert needs.
We remove them carefully, patch small holes left by door frames where needed and haul the old parts away if you do not want them. That removal is listed on your estimate. If you would like to keep a set of doors or a screen, tell us and we will set them aside.
Learning the controls
Flame brightness, flame color, heater settings, timers and thermostats vary a lot from model to model. The manual explains them, but most people prefer to see them once.
Before we leave, we run the fireplace through its settings with you, show you the remote and any control panel and point out the safety pages in the manual. We also show you how to turn the unit off at the switch or breaker for cleaning. Questions later are a phone call away.
Hauling away the old unit
When a new electric fireplace replaces an old one, or an insert replaces doors and a grate, the old parts have to go somewhere. Electronics and glass should not just be left at the curb.
We take the old unit and packaging with us and dispose of them properly. That is listed on your estimate as part of the job. If you want to keep the old unit for another room, tell us and we will leave it boxed and ready to move.

Before your electric fireplace install in Malibu Groves
Our family-owned team in Malibu Groves answers the questions that come up on installation jobs.
Can every electric fireplace be recessed into a wall?
No. The manual lists the mounting styles each model allows, and a unit made to hang on the surface may need open space around its vents. We check your model before planning any opening.
Can you put an electric insert in my old fireplace?
Yes, in most sound, dry fireboxes. We measure the opening, remove old doors or grates, close drafts behind the insert as its manual directs and bring power to it. A trim kit then finishes the face.
