A television on the same wall

Many owners want the fireplace and the television on one wall. Electric fireplaces make that easier than burning ones, yet the unit's manual still sets how close anything may sit to its heater outlet, above or below. The two cords are routed together so a single outlet plan serves both.

We read those numbers before marking the wall, place the fireplace so its warm air is directed away from the screen as the manual shows, and plan both cords out of sight. Planning a fireplace and a television together in Oakleaf Plantation? Call (904) 920-5495, and the layout visit is free.

Oakleaf Plantation sits away from the coastline. Oakleaf Plantation lies within Clay County.

Closing the flue above an insert in Oakleaf Plantation

An idle chimney above an electric insert lets conditioned air out and drafts in unless the flue is closed.

In Oakleaf Plantation we seal the damper or fit a top seal and note which method was used.

Clearance around the heater outlet

The heater outlet on an electric fireplace pushes out warm air, from the top, the bottom or the front depending on the model. The manual sets the minimum distances from that outlet to shelves, mantels, televisions and other objects.

We find the outlet on your model and mark those distances on the wall before mounting or framing. Nothing we install goes inside them, and we show you where the limits are so later additions stay clear. Those few inches decide whether the unit runs the way its maker intended. On models that blow downward, the floor area and any rug in front need the same attention.

If you ever want wood fires again

Inserts do not have to be forever. If you ever want to burn wood again, the insert comes out, the flue closure is reversed and the fireplace and chimney are inspected before any fire is lit.

That is why we record how the flue was closed and where any cord or outlet was placed. A sealed damper can be reopened. A top sealing damper can be set to open again. The inspection before the first fire checks everything the insert covered while it was in. Nothing done for the insert should make a return to wood harder, and we plan it that way.

Factory-built fireboxes as a host

Metal wood-burning fireplaces from a factory are listed units, each with its own panels, damper and chimney pipe. An electric insert can often sit in its opening, as long as the insert's manual allows the size and the factory-built unit is left intact.

We do not cut, drill or remove parts of the listed fireplace to make an insert fit. The flue is closed at the damper or with a top seal, the panels are checked for loose pieces and the insert is set with its trim. If the opening is outside the insert's range, you hear that first. The factory-built unit's rating plate is left visible, since anyone working on it later needs the model.

Electric fireplace questions from Oakleaf Plantation

Will I need a new circuit?

It depends on the unit's rating label, its manual and what else is on the circuit. If a dedicated circuit is needed, an electrician adds it, shown as its own item.

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.
