For Fairview, yes. Steady Flame is your authorized Heat & Glo dealer, 15 minutes from our Asheville showroom. Out here on the wooded lots, propane and wood heat rule, and if you're tired of the wood chore, a Heat & Glo unit set up for LP is the easy trade. As a licensed gas contractor, we permit, pipe, and install.
Propane is the fuel out here
Fairview is propane country — big wooded lots up Cane Creek and Garren Creek, well off any natural-gas main. Heat & Glo units configure cleanly for LP, with the correct orifices and pressures for a fuel that burns hotter per unit than natural gas. The linear Cosmo 42 runs on propane and lets you hang a TV above it, a common request in the newer builds; a sealed direct-vent model heats an older farmhouse room without depending on the chimney.
Trading the wood chore for a switch
Wood heat is popular here, and no wonder — the lots are wooded and the tradition runs deep. But it comes with the creosote sweep, and without a fall cleaning, creosote buildup is the leading cause of chimney fires in Fairview. If you're ready to stop hauling wood and stop worrying about the flue, a wood-to-gas conversion is one of the most satisfying upgrades we do: a sealed Heat & Glo insert with a proper liner gives real heat at the flip of a switch, no cold-start smoke.
The conversion needs a licensed gas line
Every wood-to-gas conversion needs a gas line, and running it is licensed work in North Carolina — the moat a handyman or landscaper legally can't cross. We handle it: the propane hookup coordinated with your supplier, the Buncombe County permit, the pressure test, the inspector. One accountable company, showroom to final flame. Call (828) 545-0525.
