Gas fireplace details our Oakshire team never skips
Worth a read before you approve a gas fireplace project in Oakshire.
Gas fireplaces in bedrooms and baths
The Fuel Gas Code sets location rules. Section 303.3 keeps gas appliances out of sleeping rooms, bathrooms and storage closets, but makes exceptions: a direct-vent appliance installed to the conditions of its listing, or a vented gas fireplace in a room that passes the volume test of section 304.5.
A primary suite fireplace is a popular request. We check the model's listing and manual and, where the volume test applies, measure the room before recommending anything.
The barrier screen stays on
Gas fireplace glass gets hot enough to burn skin. The Novus manual says the appliance comes with an integral barrier to prevent direct contact with the fixed glass, warns not to operate it with the barrier removed and asks owners to contact the dealer if the barrier is missing.
We fit or confirm the barrier before the first fire and explain why it stays in place, even when a bare glass front looks cleaner in a photo online.
Yearly service for a gas fireplace
Gas fireplaces stay in good order with a yearly check. Heat & Glo, for one, recommends annual service by a qualified service technician, covering items such as the glass gasket, the logs and ember material, the burner, the controls and the vent termination.
We can set up a yearly visit for your new fireplace, timed ahead of the cooler months. Any service booked within 72 hours after the free inspection is 10% off, and the first annual check is a good place to use it.

Questions we hear in Oakshire about gas fireplaces
Plain answers from our fireplace team in Oakshire. Anything else, give us a call.
Can I have a gas fireplace in Oakshire without a chimney?
Yes. A direct-vent gas fireplace vents through its own pipe, out through a wall or up through the roof. We trace the route at the free inspection and show you where the cap would go.
Why is there fog on the glass when I start it?
Burning gas produces moisture, and it can condense on cool glass until the fireplace warms up. In summer, glass cooled by air conditioning makes it more noticeable. It clears as the glass heats.
