Service · A1 Chimney & Roofing
Fireplace installation sets a new fireplace and the vent it requires. The unit may be wood, gas, or electric. An existing chimney is used only if it is the right size and in sound condition.

The work
The work includes the opening or the chase, the unit, the hearth and clearances the manufacturer requires, and the vent. A wood or gas unit is not installed onto a flue that is cracked or the wrong size. An electric unit does not get a fake flue connection.
Putting a unit into a fireplace that is already there is an insert. Electric-only scope is electric fireplace installation.
Why it matters
A new fireplace is a structure and a vent, not a piece of furniture. The clearances to wood framing are part of the installation. So is a termination that actually drafts.
If you smell gas during or after a gas installation, leave the house and call the gas utility or emergency services.
What to expect
The unit, the vent, and the price are explained before the opening is built or an old firebox is removed.
