New gas fireplaces for homes in North Golf Estates
Attic shields on vertical vent runs
When a vertical vent passes through an attic, insulation can fall or be blown against the pipe. Vent makers supply attic insulation shields to keep insulation clear of the vent and hold the required air space up to the roof deck.
If your route goes through the attic, we fit the shield listed for the vent system and check its height against the insulation depth. We also look at how easy the attic is to reach and whether future insulation work could disturb the vent. Those notes go on your written record.
Supply pressure tests and the appliance
When supply piping is pressure tested, the appliance must be protected. One manual requires the appliance and its valve to be disconnected from the supply during tests above a set pressure, or isolated by closing its shutoff valve during lower-pressure tests.
We agree the order of work with the gas contractor, so their test happens before the appliance is connected, or with the appliance isolated as the manual requires. That avoids damage to the appliance valve before the fireplace has ever been lit. The sequence is noted on the record.
Dust, debris and cleanup during the work
Installation involves cutting framing, opening walls or ceilings and handling packaging. We protect floors and furniture near the work area and control dust where cutting takes place.
Offcuts, packaging and old materials are removed as the job progresses. At the end, we clean up the debris and haul it away, leaving the room ready for the finish trade or for use. If other trades are working in the same room, we agree who clears what, so nothing is left behind.
Break-in fires on a new gas unit
New gas fireplaces go through a break-in period described in their manuals. Paint and oils from manufacturing cure during the first hours of use, which can release an odor and leave a film on the glass. Some manuals ask for open windows and a glass cleaning after the first long burn.
We explain your model's break-in steps during the handover. A curing smell during those first fires is expected, and smoke detectors may react to it. If anything seems different from the manual's description, tell us and we will check it.

Planning questions for a gas fireplace in North Golf Estates
What stays with me after the installation is finished?
The installation and owner's manuals, a walkthrough of normal operation and a written record of the work listing the model, vent parts and checks. Keep them together near the fireplace or with your house papers.
Do you handle the drywall, tile or stone finish?
No. The finish is done by your builder or a finish trade. We give them the manual's requirements for materials and clearances and check the result where it affects the appliance before we light it.
Is the installation covered by a warranty?
Our workmanship warranty covers the installation work we carry out. The appliance and vent parts carry their manufacturers' own warranties. We explain both on the estimate so you know which covers what.
