Keeping children away from hot glass
Toddlers are drawn to a fire behind glass, and the glass on a gas insert gets hot enough to burn, staying warm after the flame is off. Newer inserts ship with a guard screen for exactly that, and a guard left in a closet protects no one.
The screen goes on at installation, and we show you how it lifts off for cleaning and seats again. For homes with toddlers, a safety gate is worth adding too. Young children at home and a gas insert on the way in Bryceville? Plan it with us at (904) 920-5495.

How our gas insert pros install an insert in Bryceville
-
Measure against the plate
Opening, flue and mantel are checked against the insert's rating plate and manual.
-
Clean and check the chimney
The old flue is cleaned, examined and repaired if needed before the liners go up.
-
Liners, insert, surround
The vent kit runs to its termination, the insert is set and the surround fitted.
-
Hookups and first light
The gas and electrical hookups are made, then we light and test the insert with you.
Surrounds on uneven faces in Bryceville

The flue has to take the liners
Inside the old flue is where the liners run, so the flue has to be big enough. One maker's plate lists a minimum inside flue size of 6 inches for its insert, and a co-linear kit needs room for two liners side by side.
We measure the flue at the top and look down it after cleaning for any narrow spots, offsets or damaged lining that could snag a liner. Where the flue is too small or blocked, the estimate says so before any liner is bought, along with what it would take to make the route work.
One gas, set at the factory
Natural gas or propane is decided at the factory, and the rating plate says which. The orifices, pressures and sometimes the valve differ between the two, and a unit is converted only with its maker's conversion kit.
We confirm the gas at the house and the gas on the plate before the insert is delivered. Where a conversion is needed, the kit is ordered with the insert and fitted as its instructions say, with the conversion label applied. Running an insert on the wrong gas is not something to adjust around; it is corrected before first light.
A carbon monoxide detector nearby
Exhaust from a direct-vent insert is designed to leave the house entirely, yet its maker still advises a CO detector in that room plus regular service.
A detector near the fireplace is a small cost next to what it protects against, and we point out a sensible spot when we install. If an alarm ever sounds or someone feels headachy or dizzy while the insert runs, everyone leaves the house, 911 is called from outside, and the insert stays off until it has been checked. We test the alarm's position with you rather than leaving it in a box.
Measured in Bryceville before a gas insert is ordered
- Co-linear or co-axial kit chosen from the insert's manual
- Vertical height and offsets measured against the vent limits
- Mantel height and projection measured against the plate
- Outlet position behind the surround, wired by an electrician where needed
Before you switch to gas
What is co-linear venting?
Two flexible liners run up the old flue, one bringing outdoor air in and one taking exhaust out. They join the insert at the bottom and a termination at the top.
Will the insert work in a power outage?
Some models light and adjust on batteries while the blower stays off; others need house power. We check the model you are considering before you buy.
