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 Arden and Buncombe 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 Buncombe County. A sound chimney is exactly what lets Arden homeowners rely on a wood or gas fireplace as real heat all winter — including when a storm takes the power down.
The liner is the flue's protective inner shell — the barrier that keeps heat and combustion gases inside the chimney and away from the surrounding framing. When the original clay tiles crack, a metal liner corrodes, or the flue is simply too large for a new appliance to vent properly, relining restores a safe, code-compliant path for exhaust. A cracked or oversized flue can leak carbon monoxide and cause dangerous draft problems.
What's Involved
Steady Flame sizes a stainless-steel liner to your specific fireplace, insert, or stove, insulates it, and connects it so the appliance vents exactly as its manufacturer requires. When homeowners convert a drafty open fireplace to an efficient gas or wood insert, relining is usually part of the job — and as a licensed gas-piping contractor, we handle the fuel line and the venting together instead of leaving you to juggle two trades. A properly lined flue also keeps a stove dependable as backup heat during an outage.
Heating Challenges in Arden
Arden's rapid commercial and residential growth along Hendersonville Road creates diverse hearth needs — from statement gas fireplaces in large retail and office spaces at Biltmore Park to cozy inserts in the established homes of Royal Pines and Skyland. Many Arden homes built in the 1980s–90s have original open masonry fireplaces that would burn far more efficiently with a modern wood or gas insert.
Seasonal Tip for Arden Homeowners
Arden's mix of older and newer homes means plenty of tired, drafty open fireplaces. If yours pulls heat out of the room instead of warming it, ask us about a sealed insert — it turns a decorative fireplace into a real heat source. Fall is the ideal time to make the switch.
