Will a fireplace company install a fire pit or fire table I bought online somewhere else?
Yes — around Historic Flat Rock we connect fire pits and fire tables owners bought online, with an eye to the grounds. The village has natural-gas service, so we tie into your meter and route a buried outdoor-rated line to the patio carefully across older landscaping, then permit the work with Henderson County.
Respecting older grounds and homes
Flat Rock's homes go back to the 1800s, and their gardens, stone walls, and mature plantings are part of the appeal — so when we run a gas line out to a new fire table, we plan the route to disturb as little as possible and restore what we cross. Natural gas is the norm here, which means tapping the existing meter and trenching an outdoor-rated line rather than dealing with tanks. You supply the pit; we make it part of the setting.
The checks before we light it
A unit shipped to your door has to earn its connection — we confirm a current CSA or UL listing, that it's outdoor-rated, and that the orifice is set for natural gas rather than propane, since the wrong one soots. On a built-in surround the enclosure needs air openings and drainage. If anything's a mismatch, you'll hear it from us before we open a valve.
The licensed hookup is ours
Connecting the fuel is licensed work in North Carolina; a mason or landscaper can build the patio and set the stone, but the gas hookup, pressure test, and Henderson County inspection are ours. Bring us the unit you found and we'll make it part of the setting, safely. Call (828) 545-0525 for a free assessment.
