NFI-certified, all major brands. Call (828) 545-0525.
Ranch-era fireplaces, ready for an update
Clyde's housing stock leans toward 1960s-to-'80s ranches, and the fireplaces that came with them are showing their age — inefficient boxes and worn-out gas hardware. A sealed insert modernizes one of these into a genuine heater, and where it involves running or extending a line, that's licensed gas work: we pull the Haywood County permit and meet the inspector.
For a straight repair, the culprits are familiar — a thermocouple that won't keep the pilot lit, a worn igniter, a loud blower, sooty logs. We stock the common parts, so most Clyde repairs are one visit.
River-valley damp is hard on hardware
Clyde shares the cold-air drainage that settles over Canton and Waynesville, and the river humidity that comes with it rusts dampers and degrades masonry chimneys faster than a drier town. So on a service call here we look past the burner to the flue and the damper, because moisture is doing quiet damage in the background.
Clyde is a mixed-fuel town, so we confirm natural gas versus propane before diagnosing a sooty burn — propane runs hotter at different pressures. We're NFI-certified, the diagnostic is $125 quoted upfront, and no-heat calls are prioritized in winter. Smell gas? Leave and call (828) 545-0525 from outside.
