Do fireplace showrooms keep units in stock, or is everything special-ordered?
Out in Brevard most homes run propane, and that alone rules out grabbing a stocked unit off a floor — a fireplace has to be ordered and configured for LP, with the right orifice and gas pressure. The models burning in our showroom show you the flame; your appliance is built to your order. A few everyday lines move faster; most are made to spec.
Propane changes what 'in stock' would even mean
A natural-gas fireplace and a propane one are not interchangeable off a shelf — LP burns hotter per unit and needs different orifices and pressures, and a wrong-fuel setup soots the glass and logs. So in Transylvania County, where propane country and the cabins are the rule, the appliance is ordered and set up for your fuel from the start. That's a Kozy Heat Springfield 36, built in Minnesota for cold-climate propane cabins, or for the timber-frame and mountain-modern homes around Connestee Falls and Sherwood Forest, a Mendota FullView with its hand-cast logs as a luxury centerpiece. You choose by watching them run, not by what happened to be in a warehouse.
Transylvania's rain is why we measure instead of guess
Brevard takes more than 80 inches of rain a year, and that wet season from March into June cracks chimney crowns, spalls brick, and rusts out dampers — especially in the crawl spaces and chimney chases that hold moisture here. So a sealed insert or a fresh liner gets ordered to the actual condition of your chimney, not assumed. As a licensed gas contractor we pull the Transylvania County permit, pressure-test the line, and meet the inspector. We're 40 minutes southwest, so your special-ordered unit stages on site before install day. Call (828) 545-0525.
