See-through and corner units
Not every gas fireplace has one face. See-through units open into two rooms, corner units show two sides of the flame, and some models show three. Each design has its own framing drawing, clearances on more than one side and its own vent options, and a see-through unit's framing has to work from both rooms.
We review the drawing with you in both Mayport rooms, confirm the vent can leave from where the unit sits, and note any finish that has to be matched on both faces. Both faces also need the barrier screen and service access the manual calls for. Natural gas or propane at your Mayport home? Say which on the call to (904) 920-5495.

How It Works
From vent exit to first burn in Mayport
-
Unit and vent route chosen
We pick a listed unit for the room and draw the vent route against the manual's vent table.
-
Framed and vented to the manual
Framing, header and clearances come from the manual, and the vent is run with its firestops and supports.
-
Gas and power by their trades
A gas contractor or the propane supplier brings gas to the shutoff valve, and an electrician adds any outlet.
-
Start-up readings and leak check
Pressures are read at the valve, every joint is leak-checked, the flame is checked and the barrier fitted.

Siding, standoffs and heat
Vinyl siding needs protection from a termination's heat, and vent makers supply a standoff or siding shield for it. The standoff holds the termination out from the siding so the cladding is not in contact with hot parts, and the kit instructions say how it is mounted and flashed into the wall.
On brick or stucco, the termination mounts to the wall surface with its own trim. The manuals also require the termination to sit flush with the wall surface rather than recessed into it, so exhaust can clear the wall. Stucco and brick still need the termination sealed to the wall as the kit shows.
Wiring before the wall is closed
Remote receiver, wall switch and blower wiring are run before the finish goes on, as the manuals ask, because running it afterward means cutting into the new wall. A millivolt wall switch needs its own low-voltage wire to the valve, sized and limited in length as the manual shows.
A blower or an electronic-ignition unit needs an outlet in the location the manual gives, added by an electrician. We rough in the low-voltage wiring during framing and confirm the outlet is in place before the drywall goes up. The wire runs are labeled at both ends for whoever services the unit later.
The volume rule for B-vent units
A B-vent fireplace takes its combustion air from the room, so the fuel gas code limits where it can go. In a bedroom, it is allowed only when the room has at least 50 cubic feet of volume for each 1,000 Btu per hour the unit burns, the code's standard method.
A small bedroom can fail that test with a modest unit. A direct-vent unit, which takes all its air from outside, is not held to the same volume rule when installed to its listing. We do the arithmetic from the room's measurements before recommending either. Ceiling height counts, so a tall room holds more volume than its floor area suggests.

FAQ
Gas fireplace install questions from Mayport
Can I choose the tile or stone around the fireplace?
Yes, within the manual's rules. Only noncombustible materials may cover the metal face, set with the adhesive rating the manual gives, and a mantel follows the manual's chart.
Does the first-service discount cover a gas fireplace installation?
It does, when the installation is your first job with us. The written estimate shows the 10% off as its own line.
