Inserts and factory-built fireplaces

Metal, factory-built fireplaces raise a separate question. Some gas inserts are listed for masonry fireplaces only, and a factory-built unit's own manual may not allow an insert in it at all. The plate on a factory-built unit usually sits inside the opening or behind the lower grille, and it names the model we look up.

Both rating plates get read before anyone says yes, and a no is given on the first visit along with the options that remain. Factory-built fireplace at your Yulee house and wondering about gas? Check with us first at (904) 920-5495.

Yulee is inland. Yulee sits in Nassau County.

When the chimney is not sound

The fuel gas code does not let a gas appliance use a chimney that is unsafe. Where a chimney is found unsafe, section 503.5.6 calls for it to be repaired, rebuilt, lined, relined or replaced with a vent or chimney that conforms to NFPA 211.

A direct-vent insert runs its own liners, but those liners still depend on the chimney around them for support and protection. A chimney that is cracked through or leaning is repaired before the insert goes in, and the repair is priced as its own line on the estimate. A chimney in good shape needs none of this, and the estimate says so plainly.

The termination at the top

At the chimney top, a co-linear system ends in a termination listed for that vent kit, set in its own flashing over the old flue. The termination keeps intake and exhaust apart so the insert does not draw in its own exhaust.

We check the chimney top before ordering, since the termination and its flashing sit on it. A cracked or loose top is repaired first. Once installed, the termination is fixed as its instructions show, and the ticket records the kit used. A termination blocked by debris gets checked early on any later service call.

The barrier screen on a new insert

Inserts built to the 2015 revisions of the ANSI gas fireplace standards ship with a mesh guard for their glass. One insert plate makes fitting it mandatory and sends you back to the same maker when a guard is damaged.

We fit the barrier at installation and make sure it is seated before the first light. Any screen removed for service goes back on before the insert runs again. The glass behind it stays hot for some time after the flame is out, which is exactly when the barrier earns its place. The guard also comes off for glass cleaning, and it is put back before the next light.

Gas insert questions from Yulee

Do you clean the chimney before the insert goes in?

Yes. A flue that carried wood smoke gets checked and cleaned under the state fuel gas code before any gas appliance is hooked to it, so that is step one.

Is the gas insert inspection free?

Yes. Measuring the opening, flue and mantel and writing the estimate are free, and the price you see is the price you pay. The installation comes 10% off when you book it in the three days after that visit.
