Brevard, North Carolina

Where can I see gas fireplaces burning in person near Asheville before I buy?

Brevard is propane country, so before you make the 40-minute drive northeast to our Asheville showroom at 629 Emma Rd, know that the models worth your time are the LP-configured units — and several are set up to burn on the floor. Standing in front of one tells you what a catalog can't about flame and heat. Call (828) 545-0525.

Propane changes what you should look at

Out in Brevard and the surrounding cabins, natural-gas mains give way to propane, which burns hotter per unit and needs its own orifices and pressures. On the floor, that steers you toward models we set up for LP — a Kozy Heat Springfield built for propane-country cabins, or a Mendota FullView, the luxury centerpiece our timber-frame and mountain-modern Transylvania customers gravitate to. Seeing them lit sorts it out fast.

Wet weather is hard on chimneys

Brevard catches 80-plus inches of rain a year, and it shows up as cracked crowns, spalled brick, rusted dampers, and moisture in crawl spaces and chimney chases. That's a strong argument for a sealed direct-vent unit that vents out a sidewall and skips the troubled masonry flue entirely. Ask to see how direct-vent runs when you visit — it gives up nothing on flame or heat.

Plan the visit, then we come to you

Forty minutes each way is a real trip, so bring wall photos, a measurement, and how you'll use the fireplace to make it count. We permit every gas line with Transylvania County and meet the inspector. After the showroom the next step is a free in-home assessment of venting, the propane connection, and clearances.
