What our Morningside Park crew checks on a gas fireplace install
Worth a read before you approve a gas fireplace project in Morningside Park.
Corners, alcoves and flat walls
Manuals show gas fireplaces placed in several ways, each with its own dimensions. The Novus manual's location drawing covers different vent layouts and an alcove installation with its own limits, and gives the key measurements for each model size.
A corner or alcove position can save floor space, but it changes the framing, the vent path and the mantel options. We sketch the layout with you before you commit, using the dimensions for the model you are considering.
Level runs and pitched runs
Horizontal vent rules vary by maker. The Novus manual says horizontal runs do not require a vertical rise and may be installed level, while other systems can call for a set pitch on horizontal pipe.
We never apply one maker's rule to another's pipe. The pitch, or the lack of one, comes from the manual for your fireplace, and our installers check it with a level before the wall is closed.
The gas line has its own line on the estimate
Running gas to a new fireplace is specialist work. The Novus manual says the supply line should be installed to local building codes, or ANSI Z223.1 where there are none, by a qualified installer approved as the locality requires.
Your estimate lists the gas supply as a separate item and names who will do it. Our team plans the route and the timing with that professional, so the line is in place and checked before the fireplace is finished in.

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.
What is the difference between a gas insert and a gas fireplace?
An insert fits inside an existing fireplace and vents through its chimney. A gas fireplace is a complete unit with its own firebox and vent, installed where you choose. We help you decide which suits your home.
