In Marshall, Steady Flame Fireplaces is your Kozy Heat dealer and installer, 25 minutes north of our Asheville showroom in Madison County. Marshall's steep hillside lots and narrow downtown buildings make chimney routing tricky — which is where a sealed, direct-vent Kozy Heat shines, venting out a wall instead of up a difficult flue. Call (828) 545-0525.
Terrain that fights a chimney
Marshall is built against the mountainside — steep hillside homes with limited access and tall, narrow downtown buildings packed along the French Broad. That terrain makes running or repairing a tall chimney genuinely hard, and the gorge's downdrafts don't help draft in an open fireplace. A direct-vent Kozy Heat sidesteps the whole problem: sealed combustion, a short coaxial pipe out a sidewall, no chimney required. On a tight Marshall lot, that's often the difference between a workable install and a fight with the geometry of the site.
A real heater for a damp gorge
The French Broad gorge keeps Marshall's evenings cool and damp much of the year, so the hearth earns its keep here. Kozy Heat is American-made in Minnesota and built as a true heater, not just ambiance — and Marshall runs on both natural gas and propane, so we set the unit up for whichever your street actually has, with the Springfield 36 the usual pick where it's propane. Seeing it burn at the showroom beats guessing from a photo, since Kozy is a dealer-only line you won't find on a shelf.
Licensed, permitted with Madison County
Running the gas line is licensed work in North Carolina — a mason building into that hillside legally can't connect it. As a licensed gas contractor we spec the unit, pull the Madison County permit, pressure-test, and meet the inspector, all as one crew rather than a patchwork of trades on a hard-access site.
