A fireplace on an upstairs floor

Hoping for a fireplace in an upstairs room? A heavy masonry fireplace is rarely practical there, but factory-built, gas and electric units can be. The floor still has to carry the unit and its hearth, and the building code wants the structure supporting a factory-built chimney designed for the load.

Floor framing and the route for any chimney or vent decide which units suit, and our specialists recommend from there. If the floor needs reinforcing, that's named on the quote with the trade that does it. Ask our pros about an upstairs fireplace in Yankeetown by phoning (352) 675-6366.

Local Conditions

Vent terminations near the coast

A direct-vent gas fireplace in Yankeetown sends its exhaust out through a termination on the outside wall or roof. Salt air works on that metal, and a corroded termination can affect how the unit runs. Our specialists fit terminations from the maker's list, with any coastal options the maker offers, and show you where to look for rust on later visits.

Carrying the weight of the unit

Every fireplace adds weight to the floor, and a factory-built chimney adds load to whatever holds it up. The Florida Building Code wants the members that carry a factory-built chimney designed for that extra load.

Floor framing under the unit and hearth, and the ceiling and roof framing that the chimney's supports bear on, all get checked. On a slab, the floor is rarely a concern; on a framed floor or an upstairs room, it gets a closer look.

If reinforcement is needed, the quote names it and the trade that does it, and the work is scheduled before the fireplace goes in.

Planning a gas fireplace

Three things get planned together for a gas fireplace: where it sits, how it vents and where the gas comes from. Direct-vent units draw air from outside and send exhaust out through a sealed pipe, through the wall or the roof, as the maker's vent tables allow.

The gas line to the unit is a gas contractor's work, sized and run to the gas code, and our quote names who does it.

The unit, the venting and the framing follow the maker's installation manual, and our pros coordinate the timing with the gas contractor so the line is ready when the unit goes in.

Where the chimney leaves the roof

A factory-built chimney passes through the roof with parts from its maker: a roof support where needed, a sealed storm collar and the listed termination cap on top. Its height above the roof follows the maker's rules for distance from nearby roof surfaces.

The roofing around the new opening has to be weathered in so it doesn't leak, and on many roofs that's a roofer's job, working with the maker's roof parts.

With the opening cut and the listed parts fitted, our pros coordinate with your roofer so the roofing is sealed properly around the new chimney. The quote shows who handles each part.

FAQs

Fireplace installs, the short version

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.

Can I put a TV above the fireplace?

That's up to the unit. Each maker's clearance chart sets what can go above, and some units are made for a TV wall. Our specialists check before the wall is framed.
