In Candler, Hominy Valley's bowl traps air, so a clean-burning sealed Valor is the neighborly choice — and it converts to either the propane many homes run or a newer subdivision's gas line. Steady Flame carries and installs it 15 minutes west, permitted with Buncombe County. Call (828) 545-0525.
A valley bowl rewards a clean burn
Hominy Valley sits in a natural bowl that holds air close, which is a good reason to favor a sealed, clean-burning appliance over an open wood fire that dumps smoke into the neighborhood. A Valor is direct-vent — combustion is sealed off from the room and exhausted outside — so it heats without fouling the air that settles in the valley. Radiant warmth off the glass, no blower, no circuit board.
Propane tank or new subdivision gas line
Candler is mixed on fuel — plenty of homes out toward Pisgah Highway run on propane, while the fast-growing Enka-Candler subdivisions may have a gas line — and a Valor sets up correctly for either, with the right orifice and pressure. Many of those newer homes came with a basic decorative firebox; a Valor is the upgrade to a unit that actually heats the room.
Permitted with Buncombe County
Running or extending gas is licensed work, and we're the contractor who can legally do it — line, permit with Buncombe County, inspector, pressure test, all under one workmanship guarantee. Come see a Valor lit at 629 Emma Rd, 15 minutes east, or call (828) 545-0525.
