Candler is filling with new subdivisions whose builder-grade fireboxes are decorative at best — and owners here tend to want real heat within a few years. Mendota is the top of that upgrade path. We carry it at our Asheville showroom, 629 Emma Rd, 15 minutes east, and install it across Buncombe County as your licensed gas contractor. See it lit first. Call (828) 545-0525.
Trading up from a builder-grade box
The decorative fireboxes dropped into Candler's fast-growing subdivisions do very little heating, which is why so many owners look to replace them within a few years of moving in. A Mendota FullView is the far end of that upgrade — hand-built, 40,000 BTU, the most convincing wood-fire look we sell. We'll be honest that it's our luxury tier; if your budget wants something in between, we'll show you, but Mendota is the one people come asking to see.
Clean burn for the Hominy Valley bowl
Hominy Valley sits in a natural bowl where air settles, so a clean-burning sealed appliance is the neighborly choice — a Mendota's sealed combustion keeps exhaust out of the valley air. Much of Candler runs on propane, and the FullView FV41 is an LP unit; we set the orifice and pressure so it burns clean rather than sooting. The tank we coordinate with your supplier; the appliance and line are ours.
Buncombe permit, one crew
Connecting that fuel line is licensed work in North Carolina — a showroom or handyman legally can't do it — so we pull the Buncombe County permit, pressure-test the line, and meet the inspector. Mendota is dealer-only; come watch a FullView burn at 629 Emma Rd, 15 minutes east, then call (828) 545-0525 for a free in-home assessment.
