For Mills River, yes. Steady Flame is your authorized Heat & Glo dealer, about 25 minutes from our Asheville showroom. Out here on the larger rural lots, plenty of homes run on propane rather than a gas main — and Heat & Glo units set up cleanly for LP. As a licensed gas contractor, we permit, pipe, and install the whole job.
Propane is the reality on these lots
Mills River is farm-and-forest country — big parcels, homes spread out, and a lot of them off any natural-gas main and on a propane tank instead. That's no obstacle for Heat & Glo. The linear Cosmo 42 runs on propane at around 32,000 BTU, and any Heat & Glo unit gets configured with LP orifices and the correct pressures. Propane burns hotter per unit than natural gas, so a correct setup is what keeps the glass clean and the flame right. We coordinate the appliance hookup with your propane supplier, who handles the tank itself.
Fireplaces first, then the fire pit
The open valley here is made for outdoor living, and we do that side too — but the indoor Heat & Glo unit is usually the anchor. A sealed direct-vent model heats the room without a chimney, ideal for the newer builds going up around Banner Farm and Horse Shoe, and for older farmhouses where an open masonry firebox is losing more heat than it makes. If you're also eyeing a gas fire pit, plan it in late spring before entertaining season. One licensed company handles the fireplace, the gas, and the fire feature.
Rural service, done under permit
On a spread-out property, the gas line has more ground to cover, which is one of the things that shapes a quote — the unit, the venting, and how far the fuel has to run. It's licensed work either way: a landscaper can't connect it, we can. We pull the Henderson County permit and meet the inspector. See it burning at our Asheville showroom first. Call (828) 545-0525.
