Flat Rock's historic 1800s homes came with oversized open masonry fireplaces and clay flue liners that are now well past their prime — and that's exactly where a Valor insert shines. Steady Flame carries the line and installs it under a Henderson County permit, 30 minutes from our showroom. Call (828) 545-0525.
Big old open hearths, quietly bleeding heat
The grand fireplaces in Historic Flat Rock and around Highland Lake were built for looks and for wood, and most of them pull as much cold air into the room as they ever put heat out. A Valor Portrait insert slides into that oversized masonry opening, seals it, and turns a drafty showpiece into a radiant heater — without tearing out the mantel or the character you bought the house for.
Aging clay liners you can stop trusting
Those original clay flue liners crack and gap with age, which is a real reason not to keep burning in the open firebox. A sealed Valor vents through its own dedicated pipe, so the condition of that century-old liner stops being the thing standing between you and a warm room. On Flat Rock's natural-gas service, it ties into a line we run and pressure-test.
Preservation-minded, and fully licensed
We treat old houses with care, and we do the part the law reserves for a licensed gas contractor — the line, the permit with Henderson County, the inspector, the pressure test. Come stand in front of a Portrait insert at 629 Emma Rd before you decide. Call (828) 545-0525.
