A gas insert in an old wood fireplace

An existing wood fireplace may offer a place for an approved gas insert. That possibility depends on the firebox, chimney and the insert's permitted installation. The inspection should establish whether the existing space and vent route can accommodate the model before a conversion is priced.

The insert's manual sets what the chimney needs, so the old fireplace and chimney get checked first, then the insert and its vent go in. A wood-burning chimney can't be shared with the new gas unit's vent, so the liners run the full height. The gas line is a gas contractor's part. Reserve a gas insert planning visit in Newberry by dialing (352) 675-6366.

According to the 2020 Census, 7,342 people lived in Newberry. Newberry sits away from Florida's Gulf and Atlantic shoreline.

Local Conditions

Landscaping around the termination

Shrubs and plants near the planned termination on a home in Newberry can grow into its clearance zone over time, crowding the vent and trapping exhaust. Our specialists point out plantings that would encroach and suggest a spot, or a trimming plan, that keeps the termination clear for years. The clearances from the manual are marked on the plan. A clear zone around the vent keeps it working as designed.

Our Process

Vent route settled before the unit arrives

  1. Trace the vent routes

    Walls, attic and roof are measured against the vent tables and termination clearances.

  2. Choose and plan

    You pick a unit, and the plan covers framing, gas, power and every trade involved.

  3. Install to the manual

    The unit is set, the vent assembled and pitched, and the gas contractor connects the line.

  4. First flame and a walkthrough

    Leak test, pressures, logs and barrier are checked, and you're shown how to use it.

Terminating through the roof

When the vent goes up through the roof, the manual sets how high the termination has to stand above the roof and away from nearby walls. The vent maker supplies the roof flashing and storm collar that seal around the pipe.

Those parts go on to the vent maker's instructions. Where the roof covering around the pipe needs to be cut back and reset, or a tile or metal roof needs special handling, a roofer does that part, and the quote names them.

The attic run between the unit and the roof keeps its listed clearances and fire stops.

The bedroom question

Sleeping rooms come with restrictions on gas appliances under the fuel gas code. Direct-vent units that take all their combustion air from outside can go in a bedroom where their listing allows it, and vented gas fireplaces can only under conditions the code sets, including room volume.

Unvented appliances have their own, tighter rules.

No model gets recommended until your unit's listing and the room's size are checked against those rules. If the room doesn't qualify for the unit you like, our pros show you one that does. The rule and the reasoning go on the quote. Unvented units get a closer look still.

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.
