Before any wall is opened for a fireplace in Winter Garden
Explained by the crew that frames and pipes fireplaces in Winter Garden.
Metal strips where the hearth meets the fireplace
Some fireplaces ship with small parts that matter. The E-series units come with metal hearth strips that slide under the front edge, overlap in the middle and extend past the front and sides of the opening, protecting the joint where the fireplace and the hearth extension meet.
Small parts like these are easy to lose in a busy renovation. We fit them as the manual describes before the hearth goes down and seal the joint with the noncombustible sealant the manual calls for, so the seam between fireplace and hearth is protected.
Mantel height above a factory-built fireplace
Mantel rules for a factory-built fireplace come from its manual. In one example, a combustible mantel may sit no lower than 12 inches above the top of the fireplace opening and may have a maximum depth of 12 inches, and the maker states this clearance follows a section of NFPA 211.
Other models give other figures, so the mantel height is read from your manual before it is set. We mark the mantel line on the framing during installation, so the mantel you choose later lands where the listing allows.
Inspect and clean before the season
The E-series manual asks owners to inspect and clean the fireplace and chimney prior to use and periodically during the burning season, to keep a safe system and prevent soot buildup. NFPA 211 has chimneys and fireplaces inspected yearly, looking at soundness, deposits and whether clearances are correct.
A new fireplace is the easiest to keep in order. We note the install date and chimney parts in your records, so the first yearly visit starts with the facts.
The walkthrough on a new fireplace
Before our crew leaves, we walk you through the damper, the doors and the screen, lighting a fire, adding wood safely and taking out ash, using your own fireplace rather than a picture in a brochure.
The manual, the model and serial number and the chimney parts list stay with you, and questions that come up after the first week are welcome. That is part of our 100% satisfaction guarantee: a fireplace you know how to use, installed by a local team you can call back.

Asked by Winter Garden homeowners before a fireplace goes in
Answered by the family-owned team that builds fireplaces in Winter Garden.
Can a television hang over a wood-burning fireplace?
Sometimes. The fireplace manual sets the mantel line, the television's maker sets its own heat limits, and both have to be satisfied. We show you how warm air climbs the wall, and the answer may be a deeper mantel, a higher mount or a different wall for the screen.
What paperwork should stay with the house afterwards?
The manual, the model and serial number, the chimney parts list, the permit record and the date it went in. We hand them over together, and the listing label stays reachable on the unit, so a later inspection, repair or sale can start from the facts.
