Signs You May Need Gas Fireplace Insert Installation
A gas fireplace insert is a sealed gas firebox with a glass front that slides into an existing fireplace. Unlike a log set, it heats the room efficiently and keeps room air out of the combustion. It vents through two liners run up the old chimney.
- An open fireplace you rarely use because of the work
- A wood fireplace that smokes or drafts
- A desire for a remote-controlled fire
- An existing gas line nearby
Direct vent gas insert installation
A direct vent insert uses two flexible liners, one for exhaust and one for fresh air, run from the insert to a termination cap on top of the chimney. The chimney becomes a chase for the liners. This sealed system means the insert does not use room air and heats far better than an open fireplace. A gas insert fireplace installation like this is usually the quickest way to modernize an old fireplace.
Preparing the fireplace
We inspect the fireplace and chimney first. The old damper is often removed or clamped open to make room for the liners, and the firebox must be in good enough shape to hold the insert. The hearth in front needs to meet the insert's clearances, which can be different from the original fireplace's.
Finish and first lighting
The insert is leveled, connected to the gas line by a licensed gas contractor, and sealed to the fireplace face with a surround panel. A gas fireplace insert install is not finished until we test the ignition, the blower and the remote, then walk you through use and care. For a log set in an open fireplace instead, see gas log installation.
