Replacing a worn-out factory-built unit
The metal fireplace in your home rusting, cracking or missing parts the maker no longer makes? Factory-built fireplaces are listed with their own chimney systems, and a new unit needs the chimney that's listed with it, and the old one may not qualify.
The old rating plate, the chimney and the chase tell our specialists what's there, and the replacement is planned to be listed together from the firebox to the cap. The old unit comes out, the new one goes in to the maker's instructions, and the finish around it is sorted with you. Reserve a replacement planning visit in Williston Highlands by dialing (352) 675-6366.

Local Conditions
Standard parts work inland in Williston Highlands
The maker's standard caps, terminations and chase covers suit a new fireplace in Williston Highlands, since salt isn't wearing them down. Water and sun are the main wear on outdoor parts. Our pros choose parts that shed water well and are easy to check, and they'll explain where a stainless upgrade is still worth it. Every outdoor part is named 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.
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.
How thick the firebox walls are
The walls of a masonry firebox keep the fire's heat away from the house. The code's figures: 8 inches of solid masonry in total when a firebrick lining of 2 inches or more is part of it, and 10 inches of solid masonry when there's no lining.
Our specialists build fireboxes with a firebrick lining laid in refractory mortar and solid masonry behind it, to the full thickness.
It's more material than you see from the room, and it's what keeps the framing around the fireplace cool through years of fires. The build is priced in stages, so you can see where the money goes.

FAQs
Choosing a fuel? Ask us
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.
Why does a new fireplace smell at first?
Paints and materials in the unit cure during the first few fires. Makers advise opening windows and running a fan until it passes, and our pros give you the break-in steps spelled out.
