In Weaverville, yes — Steady Flame is your authorized Heat & Glo dealer, 15 minutes from our Asheville showroom. Whether you're finishing a new Reems Creek build or updating an older downtown home, natural gas runs the area and a Heat & Glo unit ties right into the main. As a licensed gas contractor, we permit, pipe, and install it.
New builds: get it right the first time
Reems Creek and the newer subdivisions going up around Weaverville are a clean slate — no old chimney to work around. That's the ideal case for a Heat & Glo clean-face unit like the 6000CLX: sealed direct-vent, no masonry required, dropped in as the great-room anchor while the walls are still open. Planning the gas line and vent run during the build is far simpler than retrofitting later, and we'll coordinate with your builder to rough it in. Frame the vent in before drywall and it disappears into the wall.
Older downtown homes: real heat from an old box
Weaverville's original downtown houses tend to have inefficient masonry fireboxes that lose most of their heat up the flue. A Heat & Glo gas insert seals into that existing opening, adds IntelliFire ignition, and turns a drafty decorative fireplace into an appliance that heats the room — without disturbing the character of the house. The north-facing valley here warms up slowly in spring, so that extra output earns its keep well past winter. Weaverville's newer buyers and downtown owners often want opposite things, and that's fine — we'll spec each to the house.
One licensed company, Buncombe permit
A general contractor can frame the chase, but connecting the fireplace to gas is licensed work in North Carolina — our lane and no one else's. We pull the Buncombe County permit, pressure-test the line, and meet the inspector, so your install and your warranty both hold. Being 15 minutes north keeps the free in-home assessment and any follow-up service quick. Call (828) 545-0525 or visit the showroom to see Heat & Glo burning.
