Can a fireplace dealer special-order a model that isn't in the showroom?
Yes, and Candler's fast-growing subdivisions are full of reasons to. New builder-grade fireboxes here are decorative-first, and owners want real heat within a few years — so a sealed, clean-burning unit ordered to the space is the upgrade. We spec the exact model, confirm your fuel, and install it.
Upgrading the Decorative Box
Candler is one of Asheville's fastest-growing suburbs, and its new subdivisions came with basic decorative fireboxes that make a flame but not much heat. Owners tend to want more within a few years — and the sealed gas unit or insert that actually warms the room gets ordered to the existing opening, not chosen off a floor.
We measure during a free in-home visit and spec the model, size, and front. Hominy Valley's natural bowl also makes a clean-burning sealed appliance attractive for air quality — sealed combustion keeps exhaust out of the room and out of the valley air.
Gas Corridor, Propane Coves, Buncombe Permit
Fuel in Candler splits: the developed Enka-Candler corridor draws natural gas, while more rural stretches out Pisgah Highway and Sand Hill run on propane. We confirm which you have before ordering, then spec the unit for it with the correct orifices so it burns clean rather than sooting.
You're about fifteen minutes west of the showroom. We place the order, pull the Buncombe County permit, pressure-test the line, and meet the inspector. Call (828) 545-0525.
