Gas fireplace details our Park Central team never skips
What our Park Central specialists look at, and why it matters to the finished fireplace.
Keeping the cap away from windows and doors
A direct-vent cap exhausts right beside the house, so it has to stay clear of openings. The Novus clearance table sets a minimum distance to a window or door that can be opened, which grows with the fireplace's input, from six inches for smaller units up to twelve inches for larger ones.
Sliding patio doors, casement windows and garage entries all count. We measure the planned cap position against the table for your unit's input and move it if it falls short.
Electronic ignition and the TV circuit
A spark ignition sequence can put a brief blip on a nearby electrical circuit. Heat & Glo notes that its ignition may cause intermittent, non-damaging interference with a TV plugged into the same circuit, and recommends separate circuits for the fireplace and the TV.
With a media wall, the fireplace and the TV often sit a few feet apart. We raise the circuit question with the electrician early, so the screen does not flicker every time the fireplace lights.
Choosing a model that suits the room
Gas fireplaces vary in width, flame view, heat output, controls and style. The right one fits the wall, vents along a route the house allows, and gives the heat and look you want without overpowering the room.
We help you narrow the choice with the room in front of us, then read the manual of each model you like. You pick from options that will actually install well in your home.

Questions we hear in Park Central about gas fireplaces
Plain answers from our fireplace team in Park Central. Anything else, give us a call.
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.
Do I need a hearth in front of a gas fireplace?
It depends on the model. Some allow flooring right up to the front, while others set hearth requirements. We read your model's manual before the flooring is planned.
