In Mills River, Steady Flame Fireplaces is your Kozy Heat dealer and installer, 25 minutes south of our Asheville showroom in Henderson County. Out on these rural large-lot properties, many homes run on propane rather than a gas main — so the Springfield 36 direct-vent is the Kozy Heat we most often spec. Call (828) 545-0525.
A propane-friendly heater for large-lot living
Mills River spreads out across farmland and forest — big lots off Banner Farm and out toward Horse Shoe, mixed in with newer developments — and plenty of these homes sit past the gas main on propane. The Springfield 36 is Kozy Heat's LP direct-vent unit, American-made in Minnesota and configured with the orifices and pressures propane needs. It's a genuine heater, which matters on a property where there's no neighbor's chimney close enough to borrow warmth from and the nearest help is a drive away.
See it before you commit
Kozy Heat is a dealer-only brand — there's no shelf to pull one off — so the showroom trip is the whole point. You get to stand in front of a working Springfield 36 and judge its flame and heat output in person instead of trusting a spec sheet. For the homes here that do reach natural gas, we can spec a Chaska insert or a direct-vent unit for the main instead; we match the model to the fuel your property actually has rather than to whatever's on the floor.
Tank, line, permit — coordinated
Connecting a propane appliance is licensed gas work in North Carolina. We're a licensed gas contractor, so we coordinate the tank with your propane supplier, run and pressure-test the line, pull the Henderson County permit, and meet the inspector — one accountable crew instead of a scavenger hunt across three phone numbers. And when this open valley has you thinking about an outdoor fire feature for entertaining season, that's our lane too. Ask for a free in-home assessment or call (828) 545-0525.
