Inside a Gas Fireplace Installation
Here is how our local pros choose, vent, frame and start up a new gas fireplace.
Planning the vent route
Each direct-vent model comes with a vent table that ties how high the pipe rises to how far it can run sideways, and it limits the number of elbows. The route has to fit inside those limits from the back or top of the unit to the outside.
Our pros sketch the route in your home before you commit to a location, checking framing, joists and obstacles along the way. If a route does not fit the table, the fireplace moves or the model changes, before anything is ordered.
Horizontal vent runs and their pitch
Horizontal sections of vent pipe are not always installed dead level. Each system sets its own rule for pitch and support, and those rules come straight from the manual for the model.
Our specialists follow that rule on every horizontal run, support the pipe at the spacing the manual calls for and keep the required clearance between the pipe and nearby framing.
Mantels above a gas fireplace
Most manuals include a mantel chart that ties how far a combustible shelf may project to how high it sits above the opening. A deeper shelf has to sit higher.
Our specialists read that chart for your model and mark the allowed heights on the wall before any shelf or trim is planned, so the look you want and the clearances line up.
Carbon monoxide alarms and a new fireplace
Any fuel-burning appliance belongs in a home with working carbon monoxide alarms. The U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission recommends battery or battery-backup alarms on every level of the home and outside sleeping areas.
A new fireplace installation is a good moment to check that yours are in place and working. Our pros are happy to point out where alarms would help.
