Children and pets near the heater

There is no open flame, but the heater outlet still pushes out warm air and the area around it gets warm. Manuals set clearances for furniture and belongings in front of and around the heater. A unit mounted higher on the wall keeps its outlet out of reach of small hands.

We place the unit with those clearances in mind and show you where the heater outlet is and what must stay clear of it. Where small children play, the height and position of the unit are worth planning. Installing a fireplace in a family room in Clay Hill? Phone (904) 920-5495; the planning visit is free.

Bedrooms and dens in Clay Hill

Small wall-mounted units suit rooms where no other fireplace could go, provided the circuit can carry the heater.

We check that circuit in Clay Hill before the bracket goes on the wall.

Checking what is inside the wall

Before any wall is opened for a recessed unit, we find out what is in it. Studs, electrical cables, plumbing and ductwork can all sit where the opening wants to go, and an exterior wall may hold insulation that needs to be kept intact.

We locate what we can from the surface, then open a small inspection hole where needed. If something in the wall blocks the planned position, you hear the options: move the unit, reroute the obstacle through the right trade, or choose a wall-mounted model instead. That conversation happens before the full opening is cut. On exterior walls, any insulation disturbed by the opening is put back around the new framing.

Placing a fireplace near a television

Many rooms put the fireplace and the television on the same wall. Electric units make that simpler because there is no flue or combustion heat, but the heater outlet still pushes out warm air, and the manual lists clearances for objects above or below it.

We check which way your model's heater blows and how far any screen must sit from it, then lay out the wall with both in mind. Cords for both are planned together so neither shows. Where a model directs heat upward, the layout usually puts the screen at a height the manual allows. Screens are sensitive to heat, so we take the manual's clearance as a minimum rather than a target.

Taking out the old unit

When a new electric fireplace replaces an old one, the old unit comes out first. Wall-mounted units lift off their brackets. Recessed units are unfastened and slid out, and their old trim is removed.

The new unit's manual then decides whether the existing opening or bracket can be reused. Often the opening needs adjusting, since sizes vary between models. We price that adjustment on the estimate, and the old unit is hauled away unless you want to keep it. Brackets left from the old unit are removed and their holes filled if the new unit does not cover them.

Before the unit goes in

Can an electric insert go into my old wood fireplace?

Usually, if the opening falls within the insert's size range. We clean the firebox, shut the chimney off above it, set the insert and run the cord tidily.

How long does an installation take?

A wall mount can take a few hours. A framed recess or an insert with flue work takes longer, and any electrician work sets the pace. The estimate gives the expected time.
