FAQs – Gas Fireplaces & Log Inserts

  • Can you convert my existing wood fireplace to gas?

    Yes — we specialize in gas fireplace insert installations for existing masonry or factory-built fireplaces.


  • Do you install gas lines?

    Yes. Our licensed technicians can install or extend gas lines to accommodate your new fireplace.


  • Do I need a chimney for a gas fireplace?

    Not necessarily. Many models use direct venting through an exterior wall, and vent-free units don’t require any venting at all.


  • Can I control the fireplace with a thermostat or remote?

    Yes. Most models include wall-mounted or remote controls. Many also integrate with smart thermostats.

  • Do you offer maintenance and repairs?

    We do. We provide annual inspections and cleaning, as well as repairs for most major fireplace brands.
