The unit builders keep speccing in Reems Creek
Weaverville is growing fast, and when a builder puts a gas fireplace in a new Reems Creek home, it's often a Heatilator for a reason: it delivers a clean direct-vent fire without a premium price. The Novus nXt 36 is that unit — 26,000 BTU, IntelliFire ignition, sealed combustion, no chimney required. If you're building or buying new, it's a sensible first gas fireplace; if you want to step up the front or the flame, we'll show you where a Napoleon or Heat & Glo earns the difference.
Older downtown fireboxes are a different job
The original masonry fireplaces in Weaverville's older downtown homes are a separate conversation. Most are inefficient open boxes that lose heat up the flue, and dropping a sealed gas insert into one turns a decorative firebox into a real heater without rebuilding the chimney. So the answer depends on your house — new construction points to the Novus nXt, an old firebox points to an insert. We match the box to the home, not the other way around.
Permitted with Buncombe, warrantied by us
Gas piping is licensed work in North Carolina — a showroom can sell the box but can't legally connect the fuel. We're a licensed gas contractor: we run and pressure-test the line, pull the Buncombe County permit, and meet the inspector. Every install is backed by the manufacturer's warranty plus our own workmanship guarantee. Come see the Novus nXt in Asheville — the estimate at your house is free. Call (828) 545-0525.
