Whether you want a new wood stove for your mountain home, a fireplace repair, or an annual chimney inspection, our team makes regular service trips to serve Franklin residents with the same reliability and expertise we deliver in Asheville.

A fireplace or stove is only as safe as the chimney and venting behind it. Steady Flame inspects, sweeps, relines, caps, and repairs chimneys and vents throughout Franklin and Macon County — clearing creosote and blockages, correcting draft problems, and making sure every flue draws cleanly. Where the job calls for it, we permit and inspect the work through Macon County. A sound chimney is exactly what lets Franklin homeowners rely on a wood or gas fireplace as real heat all winter — including when a storm takes the power down.

A chimney liner is the protective channel inside your masonry chimney that carries smoke, heat, and combustion byproducts safely to the outside. Cracked clay tiles, corrosion, or an oversized flue let heat and acidic condensation reach the brick, and can pull carbon monoxide back into the home. Steady Flame replaces failing liners with UL-listed stainless steel or insulated systems sized to your specific stove, insert, or gas appliance.

The Relining Process

We camera-inspect the existing flue, remove damaged tile if needed, and install a continuous liner matched to the appliance's venting requirements. When we convert an old wood chimney to a gas insert, we handle the gas line as a licensed gas-piping contractor and pull the required permits. A correctly lined flue also keeps your backup wood or gas heat safe to run during grid outages, which mattered to many mountain families after Hurricane Helene.

Heating Challenges in Franklin

Franklin's location in the Little Tennessee River valley creates a moderate mountain climate, but the distance from major service centers means many homes go longer between fireplace and chimney maintenance visits. Macon County's mix of year-round residents and seasonal homeowners creates varied demand — some fireplaces sit idle for months, then must light up instantly. Natural gas is limited outside the town core, making propane gas-fireplace and wood-stove expertise essential.

Seasonal Tip for Franklin Homeowners

Franklin homeowners with seasonal properties love gas fireplaces and inserts for their easy, instant warmth after a long time away. Schedule a pre-season fireplace and chimney check before you return for the season so a dormant hearth doesn't greet you with a surprise.
