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. 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. Transylvania County homeowners have leaned on gas hearths as reliable backup heat since Helene — a sealed gas fireplace or insert keeps a room warm through a power outage, no electricity required for the burner.
A two-sided gas fireplace — often called see-through — opens on two faces at once, so a single fire warms and animates two spaces. Homeowners use them as living-dining dividers, between a bedroom and en-suite, or spanning an interior wall and a covered porch to bridge indoor and outdoor living. Because both faces are glass, the flame becomes a shared centerpiece rather than a feature stuck to one wall.
What's Involved
See-through units are the most framing-sensitive fireplaces we install: the cabinet must sit dead-level and plumb so both glass fronts seal, and finishes on each side have to respect noncombustible clearances. Steady Flame plans the rough-in with your builder, then handles the licensed gas work — sizing the line, setting the regulator, and pressure-testing before ignition. Most two-sided models are sealed direct-vent and can't side-vent, so we route the flue up through the roof, a detail we confirm early. We pull permits and balance the flame on both faces before finishing.
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.
