Choosing a fireplace for a rebuilt room
Swannanoa is in the middle of a wave of rebuilds and renovations after the storm, and a lot of those projects include a new fireplace. Electric is a strong candidate for a rebuilt room that just wants a clean, modern flame — no gas line, no chimney, no venting, mounted on a fresh wall in a Grovemont bungalow or an updated den.
But we'll be straight with anyone who lived through the outage: an electric fireplace goes dark the moment the power does. If backup heat is part of why you're rebuilding, we'll steer you to gas or wood instead.
Why electric, and what it does
The Swannanoa valley's fog, cold-air pooling, and damp air are hard on masonry chimneys, and electric avoids that maintenance completely — nothing to reline, nothing to rust. It's supplemental heat: about 5,000 BTU, roughly 1,500 watts, comfortable up to around 400 square feet, with a flame-only mode for summer.
We keep the Dimplex IgniteXL Bold 50 (XLF5017-XD) on the floor and can source the wider line, so you can see the effects lit and judge them for yourself. Any gas or wood alternative we install is permitted and inspected through Buncombe County.
We're right up the road
The showroom is only about 15 minutes west at 629 Emma Rd — easy to reach mid-rebuild. Stop in to watch the flame running, then we handle the mount, the circuit, and a clean finish. Call (828) 545-0525 or book a free in-home assessment.
