Where are Lopi and Fireplace Xtrordinair fireplaces made?
Both are made in the USA. Lopi and Fireplace Xtrordinair (FPX) are built by Travis Industries, a family-owned manufacturer in Mukilteo, Washington. Same factory, same engineering — Lopi leans toward stoves and inserts, FPX toward built-in fireplaces. Steady Flame installs and services Lopi units here in Western North Carolina.
One American maker, two lineups
Lopi and Fireplace Xtrordinair are sister brands under Travis Industries, a family-owned company in Mukilteo, Washington that also builds Avalon and DaVinci. They come off the same American production floor with the same engineering philosophy.
Lopi is best known for wood, gas, and pellet stoves and inserts built as genuine heaters, while FPX focuses on larger built-in wood and gas fireplaces. Both are cold-climate performers — which counts for something at mountain elevation, where draft is harder and the heating season is long.
What made-in-USA means for a WNC buyer
Domestic manufacturing usually translates to solid parts availability and dependable dealer support — you're not waiting on an overseas supply chain when a gasket or blower needs replacing.
Good wood options matter here too. When Helene knocked out power for days, the homes that stayed warm ran on wood or power-optional gas. We install and service Lopi, and because repair is brand-agnostic, we can service these Travis-built units even in homes where we weren't the original dealer.
Origin is one factor, not the whole decision
We won't let 'made in USA' do all your deciding for you. Fuel geography (natural gas on the Asheville and Hendersonville mains versus propane out in Fairview, Candler, Brevard, and the cabins), room size, wood-versus-gas-versus-pellet, and venting all move the needle more than the flag on the box.
If American-made from our showroom lineup is the priority, Kozy Heat is built in Minnesota and worth a look alongside these. Book a free in-home assessment at (828) 545-0525.
