Bringing outside air to a new fireplace

Is your house tight, with strong exhaust fans? A wood fireplace needs air to burn, and the building code calls for outside combustion air unless the room is ventilated so its pressure stays neutral or positive.

Where it's needed, an outside air supply gets planned with the new fireplace, using ducts listed for the unit and an intake placed where the code allows, screened against animals. Planning it now is far easier than adding it after the walls are finished. It's priced on its own line. Reserve a planning visit that covers combustion air in Chiefland: (352) 675-6366.

Local Conditions

A fireplace on a concrete slab

A concrete slab under your home in Chiefland keeps floor support simple for a factory-built or gas unit. The unit can sit on the slab with the hearth the manual calls for.

A masonry fireplace still needs its own footing, and our pros check whether the slab can serve or a separate footing has to be poured. The slab's thickness and condition are checked first.

Our Process

Four stages of a new fireplace

  1. Look at the room

    The wall, floor, attic and roof are looked at, then the fireplace options that fit are laid out.

  2. Plan and price

    You choose a unit, and the quote lists every part, trade, permit and inspection.

  3. Install and check

    The unit and its chimney or vent go in to the manual, with clearances checked before walls close.

  4. Test and hand over

    The unit is tested, you're shown how to use it, and you get the break-in steps noted on the quote.

Three questions about your room

Before any model is chosen, our pros look at three things. The wall: an outside wall lets a gas unit vent straight out, while an inside wall means a chimney through the attic. The floor: it has to carry the unit, its hearth and, for masonry, a footing.

What's above: any wood-burner has to send its smoke up through the ceiling and the roof, clear of framing and at the height its maker or the code calls for.

Those answers narrow the options quickly. You'll hear which kinds of fireplace fit your room, which don't, and why, before anything is priced or ordered.

Planning combustion air

A wood fireplace needs air to burn. Outside combustion air is what the Florida Building Code asks for, except in rooms kept at neutral or positive pressure by mechanical ventilation.

Where outside air is used, the code controls where the intake may draw from: outdoors, or a ventilated crawl space or attic, and not a garage or basement. It also wants listed ducts where the unit calls for them, and a corrosion-resistant screen over the intake.

Planning the air supply with the fireplace is simpler than adding it after the walls are finished, and it's priced on its own line.

A chimney chase on an outside wall

When a factory-built fireplace sits on an outside wall, its chimney can run up the outside of the house inside a framed chase. The chase is framed like a small wall, sided in the same material as the rest of the house, and capped with a metal chase cover.

Inside the chase, the chimney keeps its listed clearances and fire stops. Framing and siding the chase are carpentry and siding work, and the quote says who does them.

The fireplace, the chimney and the maker's parts through the chase are ours to install, along with a chase cover and cap that shed water.

FAQs

Your fireplace installation questions, answered

Which kind of fireplace should I get?

The room decides a lot: an outside wall suits a direct-vent gas unit, an inside wall means a chimney through the attic, and an electric unit fits almost anywhere. Our specialists lay out the options that fit, priced side by side.

Will an electric unit need its own circuit?

Some plug into a standard outlet; larger or built-in units may need a dedicated circuit. The unit's manual decides, and an electrician runs any new circuit.
