Gas and LP Fireplace Options
For homeowners seeking a more convenient alternative to wood-burning fireplaces, natural gas and LP units are the two main choices. Fossil-fuel-burning fireplaces are cleaner, easier to operate, and high-performing, energy-efficient options. Whether you choose a natural gas or LP fireplace depends primarily on your home’s existing infrastructure.
If you already have natural gas appliances, then a natural gas model makes sense. Using LP requires a large tank to store fuel on your property. If you have LP appliances and already have an LP storage tank, then an LP fireplace would be the natural choice. If neither scenario applies, we can connect your home to natural gas, if available, or install an LP tank.

Benefits of Fireplace Installation
Nothing beats gathering around a fire for warmth and comfort. Modern fossil-fuel-burning fireplaces replicate the aesthetic of a wood fire. Plus, a gas or LP fireplace brings many benefits without the hassle of a wood-burning fire. You must have a fuel-burning fireplace professionally installed to ensure safety and unlock these benefits.
Both types of gas-burning fireplace systems offer great convenience. You can control these modern hearth centerpieces with a wall switch or a remote control. They ignite easily and immediately provide light and warmth. We can safely install these units in a range of locations, including bedrooms.
- Increased warmth
- Reduced utility expenses
- Beautiful focal point
- Reliable backup heat
- More convenient than wood
Gas Fireplace Installation
If you already have a gas line to your home, we can connect natural gas fireplaces quickly and easily. Our team handles the installation with safety as a top priority. This includes proper wiring and gas connections, ventilation, and testing for functionality.
LP Fireplace Installation
Property owners without natural gas access often choose a high-efficiency LP model for their heating needs. Liquid propane burns cleanly and delivers higher heat output than many other fuel sources. We practice the same safe, effective, and precise installation methods with LP models as with natural gas ones.

Frequently Asked Questions
Gas and LP models do have differences, so it stands to reason that you have questions. We want to ensure that you’re as informed as possible before making your selection. Check out this list of answers to some of our most frequently asked questions.
What is the difference between a gas fireplace and an LP fireplace?
A natural gas fireplace uses fuel in a gaseous state that is usually supplied through a gas line. An LP model uses liquid propane, which requires a tank for storage on your property. Either option can be a great addition to your home, but it depends in part on your home’s infrastructure. If you have access to natural gas, it is often preferred for its convenience, uninterrupted supply, and lower fuel costs.
Are gas fireplaces suitable for primary heating?
Generally speaking, homeowners use these fireplaces for supplemental heat and not as a primary heating source. They can increase the room’s temperature, but they do not heat the entire home. We do not recommend using these fireplaces as your primary heating source.
Do fireplaces require regular maintenance?
Natural gas and LP fireplaces require maintenance, though not as much as wood-burning models. Annual maintenance from our professionals will ensure your fossil-fuel fireplace continues to function safely and efficiently. This service includes checking for ventilation and combustion issues to prevent the accumulation of harmful gases. Unlike wood-burning fireplaces, there’s no ash to clean up, making it much more convenient.
