A TV or mantel above the fireplace

Planning a mantel or a TV over the new fireplace? Heat rises from the opening, and every fireplace's manual or the building code sets how close combustible materials can be and how far they can project.

Reading the clearance charts for your unit before the wall is framed means the mantel height and the TV location work from the start. Some units are made for a TV above them; others aren't. Finish carpentry and the mantel itself are named on the quote with the trade that handles them. Ask about planning the wall above your fireplace in Fairbanks at (352) 675-6366.

Local Conditions

Electric units where venting won't work

Some rooms have no practical route for a chimney or vent, like an interior room with living space above. An electric fireplace needs neither. Our pros check the outlet or circuit the unit needs, and an electrician runs a new circuit where one is required. The unit's manual sets the outlet type and clearances, and our pros follow it.

Our Process

Planning to first fire

Look at the room

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

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

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

Passing through attic insulation

Where the chimney passes near insulation, the system's required air space and shielding must be preserved. Shield type, support and height are checked against the applicable instructions and requirements. Loose insulation must not be packed into a space intended to remain clear.

The shield keeps a clear space around the pipe and stops insulation from falling against it. Our specialists fit the maker's shield, measure the insulation depth first and set the shield to clear it.

If insulation is added later, the shield still has to clear the new depth, and they'll mention that to you when the job is done.

Facing and mantel clearances

The materials around a fireplace opening have rules. On a factory-built unit, the maker's clearance chart sets how close combustible trim and mantels can sit and how far they can project. For a masonry fireplace, the building code sets those limits.

The chart for your unit gets read before the wall is framed and the mantel height is chosen, so the finish work fits the rules from the start and nothing has to be torn out later.

Noncombustible facing is used where the manual or code calls for it. The mantel itself and the finish carpentry are named on the quote with the trade that handles them.

Checks before the walls are closed

Once the finish goes on, the most important parts of a fireplace install are hidden: the clearances to framing, the fire stops, the insulation shield in the attic and the connections between chimney sections.

No drywall, tile or stone goes up until each of those matches the maker's manual or the code. Where something is off, it's corrected before the finish trades return.

The checks are noted on your quote. It's also when the building department's framing inspection happens, so the two line up. Getting it right at this stage is what keeps the fireplace safe for years. Nothing gets covered early.

FAQs

Fireplace installs, the short version

Can you install a fireplace in Fairbanks?

Yes. Our installers work in Fairbanks, and the planning visit that covers the room, the attic space and the roofline is free. Have a spot in mind for the fireplace? Share it on the phone.

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.
