Gas fireplace installation know-how for MetroWest
Worth a read before you approve a gas fireplace project in MetroWest.
Flooring right up to the fireplace
Some gas fireplaces allow ordinary flooring right up to the front. The Novus drawing notes that combustible flooring may be installed next to the front of the appliance, while the unit itself must sit on a hard metal or wood base.
Rules differ between models, so we read the manual for yours before the flooring installer arrives. Knowing it early saves cutting in a hearth that was never required, or leaving one out that was.
A full gas fireplace, an insert or a log set
Three gas projects often get confused. A gas log set goes into an existing wood-burning fireplace. A gas insert is a sealed unit that fits inside an existing fireplace and vents through its chimney. A gas fireplace is a complete appliance with its own firebox and vent, installed where you choose.
A complete gas fireplace suits a room with no fireplace, or one where the old unit is coming out. If you already have a working fireplace, an insert or a log set may suit it better, and we will tell you which at the free inspection.
A fit check before you buy
Buying a gas fireplace online and then looking for an installer can work, as long as the model suits your room. Framing dimensions, vent tables and clearances are all in the installation manual.
Send us the model number before you order. We read its manual, check your wall and the outside route at the free inspection and tell you whether it fits, or which model would. It takes a little reading on our side and can save you a return shipment.

Can I put a TV above the new fireplace?
Often, with the right mantel and distances. We check the fireplace maker's guidance and the TV's own temperature limit and plan the wall before anything is built.
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.
