Steady Flame Fireplaces has been the licensed hearth team that Sylva area homeowners trust since 2005.

Our team makes regular trips to the area for both scheduled and after-hours service.
Sylva 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. We install gas, wood, and electric fireplaces, inserts, and stoves in Sylva, and — unlike a showroom or a mason — we're licensed to run the gas line ourselves. Every combustion install is permitted and inspected through Jackson County. Since Helene, more homeowners here treat a fireplace as backup heat that works when the grid doesn't.
Regency builds one of the broadest hearth lineups in North America — gas, wood, and inserts across the Horizon, City, and Grandview series — and Steady Flame installs all of them. Whether you want a big-heat wood stove for a cabin or a sleek gas unit for a mountain-modern living room, we match the appliance to your space, your fuel, and how much heat you actually need.
What's Involved
We start with a site survey to plan venting, clearances, and hearth protection, then handle the part most companies can't: the gas line. As a licensed gas-piping contractor we run and pressure-test natural-gas or propane, pull the permit, and pass inspection. For wood models we set the flue and verify draft; for gas we commission the Proflame burner and ignition. Regency's wood stoves and millivolt gas units need no electricity to make heat, which is exactly why so many WNC homeowners added one after Helene left the region dark for days.
Heating Challenges in Sylva
Sylva's position in the Tuckasegee River valley creates cold air drainage patterns similar to Black Mountain, and homeowners lean on their fireplaces on frosty valley mornings. The large student and rental population near Western Carolina University in Cullowhee means many fireplaces are heavily used but inconsistently maintained. Dillsboro's historic homes along the river have older masonry chimneys that need regular inspection to burn safely.
Seasonal Tip for Sylva Homeowners
Sylva-area homeowners near the Tuckasegee River should have their fireplace and chimney inspected each fall — river-valley moisture can rust dampers and degrade flue liners faster than on higher, drier ground. A stainless cap and annual sweep protect both your chimney and your home.
