Steady Flame Fireplaces has been the licensed hearth team that Cedar Mountain area homeowners trust since 2005.
Cedar Mountain is a wooded community in southern Transylvania County near the DuPont State Recreational Forest, known for its waterfalls, summer camps, and cabins tucked among the pines toward the South Carolina line. At about 2,400 feet it's classic waterfall country, with homes ranging from rustic camps to newer mountain retreats spread along quiet forest roads. There's no natural gas here, so fireplaces run on propane and wood, a natural fit for cabins deep in the woods that lose power in mountain storms. Since Helene, backup heat that works off the grid has become a top request among area homeowners.
Electric fireplaces are the easy answer for Cedar Mountain homes where running a gas line isn't practical — condos, second-floor rooms, rentals, and slab-built houses. No venting, no fuel line, no combustion permit; just a clean, warm focal point. Cabins and camps around Cedar Mountain often center on a wood-burning fireplace or stove that owners want made more efficient with an insert. Homes in gated communities like Connestee Falls and Sherwood Forest favor clean-face propane units for open, view-oriented rooms. Because many are second homes, we size propane hearths for easy switch-on heat that also protects the house during winter absences.
An electric fireplace is the simplest way to add the look of a fire to almost any room in a Western North Carolina home — no gas line, no chimney, no venting, and no combustion byproducts to worry about. Steady Flame Fireplaces installs wall-mounted, recessed, and built-in electric fireplaces for homeowners who want flame-effect ambiance and a touch of supplemental heat without opening walls for fuel and flue. Because there's nothing to vent, an electric unit can go where a gas or wood appliance can't practically reach: an interior bedroom wall, a finished basement, a condo, a home office, or an apartment.
Modern electric fireplaces have come a long way from the orange-glow boxes of the past. LED flame technology throws a surprisingly convincing dance of light — many run the flame effect with the heating element off, so you can enjoy the ambiance year-round without warming the room. When you do want heat, a typical unit puts out around 5,000 Btu, enough to take the chill off a bedroom or den on a cool WNC evening, though it's supplemental comfort rather than whole-home heat.
Clean, Fast Installation
Most plug-in models simply need a dedicated outlet, while recessed and hardwired units call for proper electrical rough-in — and that's where a professional install pays off. A high-wattage electric fireplace can overload a shared circuit, so we confirm the load, run a dedicated circuit where needed, and frame the recess cleanly so the finished wall looks factory-built. We'll help you choose the right size and mounting style for your space and place it at the correct height for the best flame view from your seating. Electric fireplaces are ideal for rentals, spaces where fuel isn't available, and anyone who wants fire-lit atmosphere with the flip of a remote. If you'd rather have real, grid-independent heat, we'll gladly point you toward a gas or wood option instead — no pressure.

Seasonal Tip for Cedar Mountain Homeowners
At 2,400 feet Cedar Mountain's heavy tree cover and moisture keep it cool and damp, so keep firewood well seasoned and covered and have your propane fireplace checked before leaf season brings the cabins to life.
