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.
Outdoor living is a year-round draw in Pisgah Forest — mild shoulder seasons and cool mountain evenings make a fire feature the heart of a patio. 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. We build outdoor fireplaces, fire pits, and the gas lines that feed them, permitted through Transylvania County and engineered for WNC weather.
Nothing beats the crackle and glow of a real wood fire, and a well-built wood-burning fire pit gives you that without a single gas connection. Steady Flame designs and installs wood pits with proper airflow, a durable steel or masonry fire ring, and the clearances that keep sparks away from your home, fence, and low branches. Because wood needs no gas and no electricity, it's the simplest outage-proof heat source you can own.
What's Involved
We help you choose a location that respects setback and clearance rules, then prep a level, non-combustible base that won't heave or crack. We set the ring or bowl, build up the surround in stone or block, and finish with a spark-guard or cooking grate if you want one. Every pit is sized for safe, steady flame — not a bonfire — so you get lasting warmth, easy cleanup, and a gathering spot that works even when the power's out.
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.
