Gas Fireplaces

Planning a Gas Fireplace the Right Way

No hidden fees, just the model, the vent, the framing and the price in writing.

Vent parts from the listed system

Each direct-vent system is tested with specific vent components, and the manual lists which pipe, elbows, terminations and kits can be used. Mixing in look-alike parts from another system can leave joints that do not seal as tested.

Our pros install only the vent components named for your model, locked and sealed the way the manual shows, with supports and firestops where the pipe passes through framing.

Where the vent can end on an outside wall

The vent cap outside has to keep set distances from openable windows and doors, fixed windows, soffits, porches, decks, the ground and walkways. Those distances come from a table based on ANSI Z223.1/NFPA 54 that the manual reproduces, and some depend on the unit's input rating.

Our pros measure the outside wall against that table before settling on the inside location. A spot that looks perfect indoors sometimes lands too close to a window outside, and it is far better to learn that on paper.

The first few fires

A new gas fireplace often gives off an odor during its first hours of use as paint and materials cure. The manuals call it normal and recommend opening windows to ventilate the room.

Our specialists explain what the manual says about the first burns for your model, including any recommended run time, so the smell does not come as a surprise. Keeping pets and anyone sensitive to odors in another room until it clears is a sensible precaution.

If you ever smell gas

If you ever smell gas, do not light anything or use switches or phones inside. Leave the house and call 911 or the gas utility from outside, as the fireplace manuals direct.

Every gas fireplace manual carries this instruction on its first pages, and it applies to any gas appliance in the home. Our pros go over it with you at handover.
