Gas Fireplaces for Central New York Homes

Why Families Choose Gas Fireplaces

A built-in gas fireplace is for the wall that never had a fire—or the spot where a tired old one is coming out. There’s no existing firebox to work around, so the unit, the framing, and the venting all get built new. That’s a bigger project than an insert, and it’s also the point: the room gets designed around the fire instead of the fire getting wedged into whatever the house already had. The appeal is convenience—quickly turn the fire on or off and adjust the flame height and fire intensity.

Shape comes first. Traditional reads like the fireplace you grew up with, linear runs low and wide, and there’s plenty in between—see-through and corner units for an open floor plan, tall glass for a modern room. Then comes size, and here’s the advice we give on the showroom floor: pick the shape and the viewing area that suit the wall, then let the series scale to your room. Most living rooms in Central New York don’t need the biggest heater in the catalog, and a right-sized fireplace is a more comfortable one to live with.

Every one of these is a gas appliance, which means a gas line, a vent path, and clearances to get right. Natural gas is piped directly to your home by a gas utility. Propane gas is stored on site in an above or below ground tank which is refilled by an LP gas provider. Either way, our trained in-house team handles a safe, code-compliant installation, and we service what we sell—so the people who put it in are the people who keep it running.

We purchased a propane fireplace from Hearths A'Fire and had little to no experience with installation or maintenance. The customer service here is exceptional. I cant say enough about a gentleman by the name of Brian. He has gone far above and beyond for me in any time of need. He's about as professional and personable as anyone I've encountered and has truly shown he cares. He recently came with another very helpful gentleman by the name of Luke, even when their schedules are packed, to help me resolve a maintenance issue. Im truly thankful for the customer service I've received from these folks. Highly recommended!

More questions & answers

How much does a gas fireplace cost installed in Oneonta?

It depends on the unit and on what your wall needs—framing, venting, gas, and finish work ride on the room as much as on the fireplace you choose. Every gas fireplace on this page carries a price tier ($ to $$$$), and the instant estimate narrows it to your project in about two minutes. Your in-home evaluation makes it exact before anything is ordered.

Natural gas or propane?

Both work. Natural gas is piped directly to your home by a gas utility. Propane gas is stored on site in an above or below ground tank which is refilled by an LP gas provider. Most fireplaces are built for one fuel and converted to the other with a factory kit, so tell us which you have—or whether you’d like a propane tank set—and we’ll steer you to the right unit.

Will it still work when the power goes out?

Many gas fireplaces light and run without electricity. The blower won’t run, so you get radiant heat rather than fan-driven air—but you get heat, which matters the night an ice storm takes the lines down. If backup heat is part of why you’re shopping, say so and we’ll point you to the models that do it.

Can you put a fireplace where there’s no chimney?

Yes. A direct-vent gas fireplace is a sealed unit that vents straight out through an exterior wall or up through the roof with its own pipe—no masonry chimney needed. That’s what makes the blank wall the easiest place to start.

Who installs it, and what about service afterward?

We install what we sell—our trained in-house team handles a safe, code-compliant installation with attention to detail—and we service what we sell, so we’ll be here long after installation to make sure everything works the way it should.
