Located just outside Brevard near the entrance to Pisgah National Forest, Pisgah Forest is a natural extension of our Transylvania County service area. Steady Flame provides fireplaces, inserts, and chimney service to Pisgah Forest homeowners who face the challenges of living in one of the wettest areas in the eastern United States.
Pisgah Forest is propane country — gas hearths here run off an owner-owned or leased tank, which changes line sizing, regulator setup, and BTU planning compared to a natural-gas town. Converting an old wood-burner to gas is one of the most popular hearth upgrades in Pisgah Forest — you keep the fireplace you love but gain instant, controllable, mess-free heat. Running the gas line is the part a fireplace showroom or a mason legally can't touch in North Carolina — it takes a licensed gas-piping contractor. Steady Flame holds that license, so we deliver the whole job in Pisgah Forest: unit, venting, and the fuel line, all under one roof. Since Helene, many Transylvania County homeowners choose a millivolt gas conversion specifically so the fireplace keeps making heat during a power outage.
Hauling firewood, cleaning ash, and waking up to a cold hearth gets old fast. Gas log conversion turns a wood-burning masonry fireplace into a clean-burning gas feature you light with a switch or remote — no more kindling, no more creosote, and real radiant warmth on demand. It keeps the character of your existing brick firebox while trading the chores for convenience and consistent heat.
How the Conversion Works
The heart of most conversions is the gas supply, and that's where we're different: as a licensed gas-piping contractor, we can run a new natural-gas line from your meter or a propane line and tank feed right up to the firebox — legally, permitted, and pressure-tested. Showrooms and masons in North Carolina can't. From there our NFI-certified crew installs the burner, valve, and a vented or vent-free Real Fyre log set matched to your fuel, seals the damper as code requires, and tests everything before we leave.
Heating Challenges in Pisgah Forest
Pisgah Forest shares Transylvania County's extreme rainfall — averaging 80+ inches per year — which is tough on masonry chimneys and outdoor fire features. Homes near the Davidson River and Pisgah National Forest are heavily shaded by mature canopy, keeping interiors cool and increasing the appeal of a warm fireplace, while debris from overhanging trees can collect on chimney caps and spark arrestors. Many properties here are older, with chimneys that benefit from a fresh liner or a sealed insert.
Seasonal Tip for Pisgah Forest Homeowners
Pisgah Forest's heavy tree canopy drops leaves and debris on chimney caps and outdoor fireplaces faster than in open areas. Keep your cap and spark arrestor clear, and schedule an annual chimney sweep each spring to keep your fireplace drafting safely.
