Planning the hearth in front

What goes on the floor in front of the new fireplace? Every fireplace that burns wood needs a noncombustible hearth extension to catch sparks. On a masonry fireplace, the code sets its size; on a factory-built unit, the maker's listing does.

The hearth gets planned with the unit, in materials that meet the listing and suit your floor, and clearly marked out from the floor around it. Gas and electric units have their own rules, and some need no hearth at all. You'll see the hearth priced on its own line. Speak with our pros about the hearth for your new fireplace in Hawthorne at (352) 675-6366.

The Gainesville reference point is roughly 15 miles from Hawthorne as the crow flies. In our service area, Hawthorne is grouped with Alachua County.

Local Conditions

Swapping an aging metal fireplace

Is the factory-built fireplace in your home in Hawthorne at the end of its life? Parts for older models can be hard to find, and the chimney was listed with the old unit. Our specialists read the old rating plate, check what the maker offers now, and plan a replacement that's listed from the firebox to the cap. Parts for the old model are checked first, in case a direct swap is possible.

Installing to the listing

A factory-built fireplace and chimney must use the components and arrangement permitted by their applicable listing and instructions. The labels identify the actual system. Our pros check that information before choosing pipe, supports, shielding or a termination.

The permitted components are identified by the appliance and chimney instructions. A compatible part may be specifically named by its system or manufacturer; matching dimensions or a similar appearance alone does not establish approval. Substitutions need to be checked before installation.

The maker's manual stays on hand throughout the job and a copy stays with you, with the model and parts recorded on your quote.

What a masonry fireplace stands on

Masonry fireplaces and their chimneys weigh enough to need a foundation of their own. The Florida Building Code has it poured in concrete or built of solid masonry, with a minimum thickness of 12 inches and a margin of 6 inches or more around the whole footprint.

It goes in before any brick does, which is one reason masonry fireplaces are planned for the ground floor.

Our specialists lay out the footing with the fireplace design, check the ground conditions they can see, and explain what the building department will want to inspect before the masonry goes up. The footing is priced as its own stage.

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.
