Gas insert details our Millenia team gets right
Plain answers about how gas inserts are installed in Millenia, and why each step matters.
How a wall switch is wired
A wall switch for a gas insert is a low-voltage control. The manual is specific: do not wire 110 to 120 volts to the wall switch, and do not connect the power cord of an electronically controlled insert to a switched circuit, because that can override its safety lockout.
If you want a wall switch, we fit the maker's switch kit and connect it as the diagram shows. Power to the insert stays constant, and the switch simply tells the control when to light.
The logs that come with the insert
Gas inserts come with their own log set, designed for that burner. The manual gives a numbered position for each log, including how it rests against locating pins and where it must stay clear of burner ports.
Log placement affects the flame pattern and soot on the glass. Our installer sets each log to the diagram and checks the flame at startup. These logs belong to the insert itself, which makes this a different job from adding a loose log set to an open fireplace.
Room size and vented gas heaters
The code also ties some vented gas appliances to room volume. Section 304.5.1 of the Fuel Gas Code sets a standard method of fifty cubic feet of room volume for every 1,000 BTUs per hour of appliance input, and section 303.3 uses that test for vented gas fireplace heaters in bedrooms and bathrooms.
For a sealed direct-vent insert, the direct-vent exception usually governs. We still measure the room and check the input of the model you want, so the recommendation is backed by numbers.
Cleaning up inside the unit
Installation makes dust, and some of it finds its way into the insert. The Supreme manual includes a step to vacuum any sawdust that has collected inside the firebox or underneath in the control cavity, and to remove all shipping materials.
Debris in the control area can interfere with the burner and controls. Our crew cleans the unit and the hearth before the first lighting and again once the surround is on.

Your gas insert questions, Millenia edition
Answers from the family-owned team that fits gas inserts in Millenia.
Will a gas insert make my room too hot?
That depends on the size you choose and the room. Inserts are listed with a range of inputs, so we match the model to the space and the way you use it. Many models also let you turn the flame down.
Does a gas insert need a new cap on the chimney?
Yes. The insert's liners end at a termination cap from the same vent system, sealed to a plate that closes the top of the old chimney. An old chimney cap cannot do that job.
