New gas fireplaces for homes in West Flagler
Inserts and log sets have their own services
A gas insert slides into an existing fireplace and vents through liners, and a gas log set sits in a working wood fireplace. Both are gas appliances, but their planning, venting and requirements differ from a built-in gas fireplace.
We handle inserts and log sets under their own installation services. If your plan involves an existing fireplace opening, tell us, and we start with the service that fits. This installation service is for new vented gas fireplaces framed into a wall, a chase or a new opening.
More than one gas fireplace in the house
If you plan more than one gas fireplace, each needs its own vent. The manuals we work from call for a separate vent for each appliance, and power vent instructions prohibit common venting of several appliances.
We plan each unit's route and termination on its own, and check that terminations do not crowd one another or other openings. Planning two units together can save framing and trade visits, but the vents stay separate from start to finish. The installation record lists each unit and its vent separately.
Outside air kits on natural-draft models
Some natural-draft gas fireplaces accept an outside air kit. One manual recommends it, and it says the kit must be installed where negative pressure is present, to help the unit perform and to help prevent spillage of combustion gases.
If you choose a natural-draft model, we look at whether an outside air kit is listed for it and whether the house conditions call for one. The kit's route and inlet position are planned with the rest of the installation, and the control that closes it is shown during the walkthrough.
Planning for draft on a natural-draft unit
Natural-draft fireplaces depend on draft, the pressure difference that moves combustion gases up the vent. One manual lists exhaust fans, range hoods, clothes dryers, other combustion appliances, air handler imbalances and air leaks upstairs as causes of negative pressure.
The same manual advises keeping the vent inside the warm part of the building, exiting at a high point of the roof and staying clear of trees and nearby structures. We apply that guidance when planning a natural-draft installation, and we explain when a direct-vent unit would avoid the issue.
The installation checklist for your gas unit
- Model selection against the room and route
- Wall and ceiling firestops where required
- Electrical requirement noted for an electrician
- Leak check at the appliance connection
Gas fireplace installs, questions answered
Does the installation include the barrier screen and glass?
Yes. The barrier screen and glass assembly supplied with the unit are fitted as the manual shows. They are part of the appliance rather than optional trim, and the unit is not handed over without them.
Is there a discount on a gas fireplace installation?
Yes. Once the free inspection is done, you have 72 hours to approve the installation, or any service we quote, at 10% off. The window counts from your own inspection and is shown on the estimate.
Is a decorative gas fireplace different from a heater-rated one?
Yes. Vented decorative fireplaces are listed to ANSI Z21.50, while vented fireplace heaters are listed to ANSI Z21.88. If warmth matters as much as the look, we point you toward heater-rated models during selection.
