Quick answer

What is involved in converting a wood fireplace to gas?

A safe conversion starts with a chimney sweep and Level II camera inspection to confirm the flue and firebox are sound. Then a gas line and vented logs or a sealed insert are installed by licensed professionals, with the damper set correctly for gas logs. We handle the inspection, cleaning and chimney preparation.

Overview

What is fireplace conversion?

Gas fireplaces are cleaner and easier, but the chimney must still be in good condition and correctly sized. Creosote left behind can cause odors, and damaged liners must be repaired first.

We sweep and inspect, document liner condition, recommend cap and damper changes, and coordinate with your gas installer.

Fireplace Conversion is part of our chimney services. Many customers book it together with chimney sweep.
