Candler is a fast-growing community in western Buncombe County, located just off I-26 and US-19/23 west of Asheville. Steady Flame provides full fireplace services to Candler homeowners and businesses, with quick response times thanks to our proximity.

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 Candler 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 Candler 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 Candler
Candler's Hominy Valley location creates a natural bowl where a clean-burning, sealed gas or high-efficiency wood appliance is a great choice for air-quality-conscious homeowners. The area's rapid growth has brought many new subdivisions where builder-grade fireplaces are often basic, decorative units — leaving homeowners wanting a real heat-producing insert or a proper gas log set within the first few years.
Seasonal Tip for Candler Homeowners
If you're in a newer Candler subdivision with a plain builder-grade firebox, you may be missing out on real warmth. Adding a high-efficiency insert or an upgraded gas log set is an affordable way to turn a decorative fireplace into a heat source — ask us for a free evaluation.
