Swapping out a tired gas unit
Gas fireplace old, hard to light or missing parts the maker no longer makes? Replacing it can be simpler than you'd think if a new unit fits the old opening and vent, or it can mean a new vent too, depending on what the new unit's manual allows.
The old rating plate, the existing vent and the framing narrow the choice, and you'll see the replacement units that fit, with what each would take. The old unit is removed and the new one installed to its listing. Call our pros about replacing your gas fireplace in East Bronson at (352) 675-6366.

Local Conditions
Metal roofs and a new vent
Under a metal roof in East Bronson, a roof-vented gas fireplace needs the vent maker's roof piece and a roofer who knows how to seal metal panels around it. Our specialists coordinate the opening and the parts with your roofer, and the quote shows which part of the job belongs to whom.

Pitch on horizontal runs
The horizontal parts of a gas fireplace vent aren't laid dead level. Each system's manual sets how they're pitched, and the figure differs from one maker's system to another, which is why our pros read it for your unit instead of relying on habit.
A run pitched the wrong way can collect condensation or cause the flame to go out, a problem maker troubleshooting sections point to directly.
Our specialists set the pitch with a level as each section goes in and support the pipe at the spacing the manual calls for, so it stays put. The pitch is checked again before the finish goes on.
Keeping the controls reachable
The valve, receiver and connections of a gas fireplace sit in a compartment behind a lower grille. The fuel gas code says panels, grilles and access doors that come off for normal servicing mustn't be attached to the building.
Built-ins, stone and cabinetry can box that compartment in if nobody plans for it.
Our pros design the finish so the grille comes off and the controls are reachable, and they check the finish trade's plans for it. It saves tearing out tile or trim the first time the unit needs service, and it's shown on the plan. The grille stays removable.
Gas inserts in a wood chimney
Gas inserts fit into an existing wood fireplace and vent up the old chimney through liners sized to the unit, one for exhaust and one for fresh air, or a coaxial liner that combines the two, as the insert's manual allows.
Makers don't allow a gas vent to connect into a chimney that also serves a wood-burning appliance, so the liners run the full height and seal at the top.
After the fireplace and chimney are checked, the insert and its liners go in to the manual, and the gas line stays with a gas contractor. The chimney's condition is part of the free visit.

FAQs
Gas installs, briefly
Can a gas fireplace go in a bedroom?
The fuel gas code limits it. Direct-vent units that take all their air from outside can go in a bedroom where their listing allows. Our pros check the room and the listing first.
What's the difference between a heater and a decorative unit?
Heaters are listed to ANSI Z21.88 and built to warm the room; decorative units are listed to ANSI Z21.50 and put the look of the flame first. Our pros show you both. Talk to us about which suits you in East Bronson at (352) 675-6366.
