Choosing the size for your room
Wondering how big a gas fireplace your room needs? A unit that's too large can overheat the room; one that's too small looks lost and does little. Makers publish heat ratings and room guidance for each model.
Our specialists size the unit by your room's area, ceiling height and how you'll use it, from a cozy glow to real heat, and they check the vent route can carry the model you like. The options that fit are priced side by side. Adjustable flames widen the choice. Speak with our pros about sizing your gas fireplace in Evinston by calling (352) 675-6366.

Local Conditions
Standard vent parts inland in Evinston
Sun, rain and wind reach the termination of a gas fireplace in Evinston, but it isn't fighting salt, so the vent maker's standard parts hold up well when they're installed to the manual. Our pros choose the termination spot for clearances first and shelter second, and they show you how to spot damage or blockage later. Every vent part is named on the quote.

How a direct-vent unit breathes
Direct-vent gas fireplaces sit sealed off from the room. Every bit of its combustion air comes in from outside, and its exhaust goes back out, through a pipe-within-a-pipe that ends at one termination on the wall or roof.
Because it doesn't use room air, the fuel gas code treats it differently from units that do, and it's the type that can go in more rooms. Its glass front helps close it off.
Our specialists install the vent to the maker's instructions, with every joint locked, so the fresh air and exhaust paths stay separate from end to end. The pipe parts come from the same vent maker.
Units that use room air
Some gas fireplaces aren't sealed: they draw combustion air from the room and vent through a draft hood into a B-vent pipe or a lined chimney. The fuel gas code treats them differently, especially in bedrooms and small rooms.
They need enough room air to burn properly, and a house that pulls air in through its vents can upset their draft, which is why many carry a spill switch near the draft hood.
You'll hear the difference before you choose, and our pros may steer you toward a direct-vent model, which doesn't depend on room air. The difference is explained on the quote.
Electrical needs and grounding
Many gas fireplaces need power for ignition, a blower or a receiver, and some run on batteries. The manual lists what the unit needs and requires it to be electrically grounded according to local codes or the national electrical code.
The manual puts the outlet or connection inside the fireplace's electrical compartment, and that's where it's planned.
Any new circuit or outlet is installed by an electrician, and the quote says so. Our specialists also show you how the manual says to light the unit if the power goes out, where the design allows it. Battery backups are shown to you as well.

Planning a gas fireplace? Ask us
Can you install a gas fireplace in Evinston?

Why does my new gas fireplace smell?
Paints and binders cure during the first burns, and makers call that normal. A rotten-egg smell is gas: get everyone out, then phone the gas supplier once you're outside.
