How much does it cost to have a gas fireplace or gas insert installed in the Asheville area?

Built for a Low-Maintenance Home

Hendersonville's growing retirement community shapes what we install most: sealed direct-vent gas fireplaces and inserts that light with a switch or remote and ask almost nothing of you. A Napoleon Ascent 36 or a Heatilator Novus gives steady heat with battery-backup ignition, so it still lights when the power's out. No cold-start smoke, no ash to shovel — the appeal is convenience, and it isn't close.

Because natural gas runs the mains through much of town, an existing gas stub at the firebox keeps the fuel side of the bill down.

Older Chimneys and Clay Soil

Hendersonville's clay-heavy soil settles foundations and stresses older masonry chimneys over the decades, so before an insert goes in we check the flue and firebox for cracks. If the chimney's tired, a new stainless liner is part of the job — and it's often cheaper than fighting a failing clay flue for years. Downtown Main Street's historic homes and the newer Spartanburg Highway subdivisions each bring their own quirks to the vent path.

We pull the permit with Henderson County and meet the inspector, so the work is documented and won't threaten your insurance or a future closing.

A Free Number, Not a Phone Guess

Two homes with the "same" fireplace can land thousands apart once we see the gas run and vent route, so we quote at your house, free. Our showroom is 25 minutes north on Emma Road in Asheville if you'd like to see the units first. Financing is available for qualified buyers — call (828) 545-0525.
