Modern Fireplace conversion - How We Replace Your Old Wood Burning Fireplace

What steps need to happen along the way?

You have to choose your new gas fireplace from among the significant selection your local ClimateCare retailer carries.

Before you change your wood fireplace to gas, it’s best to start with a chimney cleaning. The built up creosote from your wood burning fireplace needs to go.

We’ll have to extend your gas line to service the new fireplace (this is less intrusive as you might think).

We’ll have to fit the gas fireplace to your existing masonry work and seal the edges seamlessly, so the gas fireplace looks like the house was built around it. This is actually called a gas insert. We insert it into the existing fireplace space.

Once installed, we recommend you book your fireplace inspection for the following year. Gas fireplaces should be inspected annually so you never run into any problems.
