Installing electric fireplaces the careful way in Riverview

Flames, colors and heat settings

The look and the heat are separate on an electric fireplace. On the IgniteXL, the flame effect turns on and off by itself, the heater follows a thermostat setting, and eco and boost modes change how hard it works. Other models offer their own mix of flame colors, media and heat levels.

Our team sets the controls up with you at the end of the installation, pairs the remote and shows you how to run the flames with or without heat. Nobody in your Riverview home has to guess which button does what.

Media walls and built-in cabinetry

Media walls often hold the fireplace, shelves, cabinets and a TV together. Every piece has to leave the fireplace's air openings clear, keep the warm-air outlet away from electronics and allow the unit to be taken out for service.

Our pros work from the fireplace manual while the cabinetry is drawn, share the opening sizes with your cabinet maker and agree who builds what. The estimate for your media wall in Riverview shows our part of the job clearly.

Two ways to convert a fireplace to electric

Converting a fireplace to electric can mean an insert in the old opening or a new built-in unit in a reframed wall. Each route has its own steps, from checking the old chimney to planning the outlet and the finish.

Our pros walk you through both at the free inspection, including what happens to the old damper, any old gas supply and the hearth. You get a written plan and a price for the route you choose, and 10% off if you approve it inside 72 hours of the inspection.

What your written estimate spells out

A clear estimate is the easiest way to compare electric fireplace installers. Ours names the model, the mounting method and every task around it, including the ones other trades handle.

You approve the price before anything is ordered, with no hidden fees, and our workmanship warranty covers the fitting at your home in Riverview.
